Earthquake Activity in Chile
Saturday’s massive 8.8-magnitude earthquake in Chile has captured the attention and concern of the world community. The area continues to be plagued by dozens of smaller quakes including at least nine of magnitude 6.0 or higher.
Below is a timeline of earthquake activity in Chile over the last 72 hours. Wolfram|Alpha’s earthquake data is updated every six minutes with information reported by the United States Geological Survey (USGS). The USGS reports activity within 30 minutes of most seismic events worldwide.
In addition to the map and timeline, the output shows the top three earthquakes (ranked in decreasing order of magnitude) within the past 72 hours, and clicking the “More” button will pull up information on the lower-magnitude shocks. Furthermore, you can see exact coordinates by clicking the “Show coordinates” button.
If you’re monitoring quake activity in Chile or other parts of the world, you will find Wolfram|Alpha useful for exploring a single event or series of events by time, location, and magnitude.

im continually surfing all over the internet the majority of the afternoon therefore I tend to peruse a bunch, which isn’t always a beneficial matter as several of the web pages I discover are constructed of pointless garbage copied from many other sites a thousand times, but I’ll hand it to ya this site is certainly not bad at all and even boasts a bit of unique content, for that reason many thanks for splitting the fad of simply duplicating other peoples’ blogs, in case you ever wanna take up a couple of hands of facebook poker together with me just gimme a shout – you have my e-mail
