Major mag. 7.0 earthquake - north of Samos Island, Greece, on Friday, 30 October 2020 at 11:51 (GMT) - information

Major mag. 6.7 Earthquake - Aegean Sea, 17 km northeast of Karlovassi, Samos, North Aegean, Greece, on Friday, Oct 30, 2020, at 02:51 pm (Istanbul time)

A very strong magnitude 6.7 earthquake occurred in the Aegean Sea near the coast of Izmir,  Turkey, in the early afternoon of Friday, Oct 30, 2020 at 2.51 pm local time (Europe/Istanbul GMT +3). The quake had a very shallow depth of 2 km (1.2 mi) and was felt over a large region. The shallow depth of the quake caused it to be felt more strongly near the epicenter than a deeper quake of similar magnitude would.

Fatalities and economic damage

The earthquake caused a large number of fatalities (118 in total) and injuries, while damage to buildings and infrastructure was massive in the areas near the epicenter. The earthquake generated a tsunami that reached heights of up to 5.30 m (17.4 ft). A significant part of the total fatalities and/or damage from the quake were due to this tsunami.

This was the most fatal quake worldwide in 2020 and the 11th most deadly quake since 2020.

Tectonic Summary
The October 30, 2020, M 7.0 earthquake offshore Samos Island, Greece, occurred as the result of normal faulting at a shallow crustal depth within the Eurasia tectonic plate in the eastern Aegean Sea. The focal mechanism solution indicates that the earthquake occurred on a moderately dipping normal fault striking either eastward or westward. This mechanism indicates north-south oriented extension that is common in the Aegean Sea. Tectonics in the region surrounding this earthquake are relatively complex; to the south, Africa (Nubia) lithosphere subducts northward beneath the Eurasia plate at the Hellenic Trench; to the east, the Anatolian microplate (part of Eurasia) moves in a general westward direction, driving right-lateral faulting along its northern boundary, the North Anatolian Fault, and left-lateral faulting in southeast Turkey. The Aegean Sea region, western Turkey, and southern Greece where the October 30 earthquake occurred overall experiences north-south extension that is driven by southward migration of the Hellenic Trench.
In western Turkey and the Aegean Sea region, historic earthquakes demonstrate a mixture of transtensional and extensional faulting focal mechanism solutions. The October 30, 2020 earthquake produced nearly pure normal faulting, and is broadly consistent with past earthquakes in the region. The location of the October 30, 2020 event is about 250 km north of the closest main plate boundary, where the Africa plate moves to the north at a rate of approximately 10 mm/yr with respect to Eurasia; this earthquake is thus considered an intraplate event. While commonly plotted as points on maps, earthquakes of this size are more appropriately described as slip over a larger fault area. M7 normal faulting events typically have a fault area of 50 x 20 km.
The Aegean Sea frequently experiences moderate to large earthquakes, and the region within 250 km of the October 30, 2020 earthquake has hosted 29 other M 6+ events over the preceding 100 years. The largest instrumentally documented earthquake in the region was a M 7.7 earthquake in July 1956 between the islands of Naxos and Santorini (Thera), and southwest of the October 30, 2020 earthquake. The 1956 earthquake was the largest earthquake of the 20th century in Greece. As a result of this 1956 event, a M 7.2 aftershock occurred 13 minutes later with an accompanying large tsunami, 53 fatalities, 100 injuries, and extensive damage in Amorgos and nearby Santorini. More recently, on July 20 2017 a M 6.6 earthquake occurred southeast of the October 30, 2020 event near Bodrum, Turkey, and resulted in 2 fatalities and hundreds of injuries reported in Greece and Turkey.

Ref #12798, 12801, 12803, 12804, 12805, 12810:
114 people killed in Turkey. Injured 1,035 people in Izmir. 17 damaged or collapsed buildings had been completed and teams were clearing the rubble. 22 boats had sunk and 43 others had run aground, of which 40 had been rescued, as a result of the quake. The death toll in the disaster increased to 116 after one of the hospitalized survivors succumbed to her injuries.
Two teenagers were killed on the island Samos after being struck by a collapsing wall. At least 19 people were injured on the island, with two, including a 14-year-old, being airlifted to Athens and seven hospitalized on the island, health authorities said.

Ref #13027 report for Samos:
11 [schools] have suffered extensive damage [...] over 60 churches on the island were severely damaged by the earthquake. 

Ref #1250:
Samos (Greece): 2 deaths, 19 injured; Izmir Bornova, Bayrakli and Karsiyaka (Turkey): 115 deaths, 1034 injured, 400 million USD damage

Ref #13077:
nearly 630 buildings were heavily damaged in the tremor while the quake caused milder damage to 605 building and nearly 8,000 structures suffered little damage

What is Intensity and the Mercalli Intensity Scale?


The amount of shaking that occurs on the surface due to an earthquake is called the intensity. It is commonly measured on the so-called Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) ranging from 1 (not felt) to 10 (extreme shaking), and given in Roman numerals as I,II,...IX, X, and often displayed with color codes ranging from light blue to dark red.
Earthquake intensity depends mainly on the magnitude and depth of the quake as well as the distance from the epicenter: The further away, the less shaking intensity occurs.

3231 aftershocks for this quake

For this strong earthquake, 3231 aftershocks have been detected so far. The strongest was a magnitude 5.3 quake that hit 3 hours after the mainshock in 16.6 km (10 mi) distance, in - 8 km NW of Kokkári, Greece, on Friday, Oct 30, 2020 on 05:14 pm (Athens local time GMT +2).
The most recent aftershock occurred 3 years ago AEGEAN SEA, Greece, and had a magnitude of 2.0.

What are aftershocks?


Larger earthquakes (above magnitude 5 or so) such as this one are usually followed by smaller ones known as aftershocks that occur in the same area during the days, weeks, months or even years after the main shock.
[More info]

What about this quake?


Based on its magnitude, the fault that was active during the quake likely ruptured beneath a surface of approx. 501 km2 (=194 sqare miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 39 km (24 mi).

Earthquake statistics

Average number of earthquakes

Based on data from the past 54 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 2,500 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):
  • Mag. 7 or higher: 0.14 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 7.1 years)
  • Mag. 6 or higher: 0.25 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 4 years)
  • Mag. 5 or higher: 0.64 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 1.6 years)
  • Mag. 4 or higher: 11 quakes per year
  • Mag. 3 or higher: 146 quakes per year (or 12.2 quakes per month)
  • Mag. 2 or higher: 1,100 quakes per year (or 3.1 quakes per day)
  • Mag. 1 or higher: 2,500 quakes per year (or 6.9 quakes per day)
The area where this quake occurred has a very high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 17 quakes above magnitude 7 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 5 to 10 years.
