USGS Magnitude 2.5+ Earthquakes

USGS Magnitude 2.5+ Earthquakes in the past week in Turkey

Current and recent earthquakes alerts from the Global Disaster Alert and Coordination System (GDACS), a cooperation of the United Nations and the European Commission, with alert level, severity and affected population.

GLIDEnumbers are GLobal unique IDEntifiers for Disasters. Each disaster is registered in a record that contains a GLIDEnumber that uniquely identifies it and allows information to be interoperable across multiple disaster information sources, both structured and textual. Accessing disaster information can be a time consuming and laborious task. Not only is data scattered but frequently identification of the disaster can be confusing in countries with many disaster events and across borders. To address both of these issues, Asian Disaster Reduction Center (ADRC) proposed a globally common Unique ID code for disasters. Among the institutions using actively GLIDEnumbers are UN-OCHA (ReliefWeb, FSCC, HDX), UNDRR, UNDP, WMO, IFRC, FAO, the European Commission and the Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters (CRED), among many others. Country datasets are only produced for countries with at least one GLIDE event since 1 January 2022. The global dataset contains all events available from the GLIDE API, including those not assigned to a country.

Tectonic plates divide up the Earth’s crust. Earthquakes and volcanic activity are mostly concentrated along the boundaries of these plates. Many earthquakes happen around the mid-ocean ridges and the major faults that occur at the plates’ boundaries.
