DisasterAWARE active record, VIII+ band
Epicentres: USGS ComCat, Jan 1–Oct 10, 2026 (UTC). Contours: USGS ShakeMap. Click a dot for depth, PAGER alert, deaths and what DisasterAWARE recorded. ShakeMap shading (MODELED) is on at load for every quake with a ShakeMap. More layers, off at load, in the layer control: felt reports, aftershocks, tsunami heights and messages, fault models, ground failure; PAGER estimates in the dot popups. Popups give UTC and the local time at the epicentre (UTC only at sea).
ShakeMap intensity (MMI, MODELED)
IV light to X extreme; IV fades at each ShakeMap's edge.
88 of the 108 quakes; higher wins where maps overlap. More
Latest USGS versions (Panama v10); nearest whole intensity; X not reached. IV fades out at the edge of each ShakeMap's area (a model boundary, not where shaking stops). Grid peak above the dot's headline for 46 (1–4 classes for 32; no headline for 10). 13 lie inside a bigger neighbour's shading. Not shaded: Guangxi, China M5.0 (May 17) (no ShakeMap), 6 that never reach IV.
Ground failure (MODELED)
Liquefaction 1–5% of area
Liquefaction 5–10%
Liquefaction 10–20%
Liquefaction 20% or more
Landslides 1–5% of area
Landslides 5–10%
Landslides 10–20%
Landslides 20% or more
USGS ground-failure product for every 2026 quake mapped here whose landslide or liquefaction alert is yellow or higher (21; not drawn: Venezuela M7.2 (under the M7.5's model); Panama M6.6 aftershock (under the M7.7's); Panama M6.0 aftershock (under the M7.7's)): share of each cell expected to slide (Nowicki Jessee and others, 2018) or liquefy (Zhu and others, 2017), driven by the ShakeMap. A model estimate, not mapped failures; landslides are drawn over liquefaction.
