Earthquake statistics

Number of quakes per year

Note:
The apparent increase in the number of quakes is not because global seismic activity has increased, but because the number of seismic networks around the world and their sensitivity to detect smaller quakes has been constantly increasing.
This is most evident if one looks at the number of smaller earthquakes (below magnitude 5). For larger quakes (magnitude 5 or more), the effect disappears after around the 1990s. Since then, the global coverage of earthquake of larger quakes has been nearly complete.

Average number of earthquakes

Based on data from the past 54 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 58 quakes on average per year near Atka volcano:

Mag. 5 or higher: 0.1 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 10 years)
Mag. 4 or higher: 0.82 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 1.2 years)
Mag. 3 or higher: 4.8 quakes per year
Mag. 2 or higher: 12 quakes per year
Mag. 1 or higher: 27.7 quakes per year

Atka Volcanic Complex volcano (Andreanof Islands, USA) - Smithsonian / USGS Weekly Volcanic Activity Report for 3 April-9 April 2024 (New Activity / Unrest)

AVO lowered the Volcano Alert Level for the Atka volcanic complex to Normal (the lowest level on a four-level scale) and the Aviation Color Code to Green (the lowest color on a four-color scale) at 0734 on 9 April. The report noted that activity at the volcano had decreased following the small explosion at the summit crater of Korovin on 27 March, one of the volcanoes at the complex. Though occasional small earthquakes and weak volcanic tremor continued to be recorded, the activity was at background levels. ... Read all
