Understanding Earthquakes in Puerto Rico

Seismic Activity Overview

Puerto Rico has recorded 72 earthquakes in the last 30 days, with 15 in the last week alone. This level of activity indicates that Puerto Rico sits in a highly active seismic zone where tectonic plates are constantly interacting.

Earthquake Magnitude Scale

Earthquakes are measured on the Richter and Moment Magnitude scales. Each whole number increase represents a 10× increase in measured amplitude and approximately 31.6× more energy released.

How Earthquake Depth Affects Impact

The depth at which an earthquake occurs significantly affects surface shaking intensity. Shallow earthquakes (less than 70 km deep) cause the most severe ground displacement, while deep events (over 300 km) dissipate most energy through the mantle before reaching the surface.
