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 14 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 4.1 quakes on average per year near Nevados de Chillán volcano:

Mag. 5 or higher: 0.07 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 14.3 years)
Mag. 4 or higher: 0.7 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 1.4 years)
Mag. 3 or higher: 2.5 quakes per year
Mag. 2 or higher: 3.5 quakes per year

Nevados de Chillan volcano (Central Chile) - Smithsonian / USGS Weekly Volcanic Activity Report for 4 January-10 January 2023 (Continuing Activity)

On 10 January SERNAGEOMIN lowered the Alert Level for Nevados de Chillán to Green, the lowest level on a four-color scale. No activity at the surface had been observed since mid-October 2022; other data reflected ongoing internal processes, though recently the activity had been lower and gradually returning to background levels. The report reminded residents not to approach the crater within 500 m. ... Read all

Nevados de Chillan volcano (Central Chile) - Smithsonian / USGS Weekly Volcanic Activity Report for 12 October-18 October 2022 (Continuing Activity)

SERNAGEOMIN reported continuing activity at Nevados de Chillán's Nicanor Crater during 11-18 October. At 0043 on 12 October a long-period earthquake was recorded and was possibly associated with an emission, but weather clouds prevented visual confirmation. A long-period earthquake at 1504 on 13 October was followed by a dense gray-black ash plume that rose almost 2.3 km and drifted NNE. ... Read all
