We got this incredible footage of today's earthquake from a resident in Sand Point, about 50 miles from the epicenter. We are grateful to those who shared their experiences -- it allows others to understand what an earthquake is like, and be better prepared. We are also grateful that we have not heard of anyone injured from this fairly large earthquake for Alaska. | Alaska Earthquake Center

Today marks the 14th anniversary of the M9.1 Tohoku earthquake and subsequent tsunami that struck Japan’s coast, a pivotal event in the field of seismic science. This catastrophic rupture is considered one of the best-recorded seismic events in history, providing crucial data that continues to shape our understanding of subduction zone earthquakes. The earthquake deepened our knowledge of fault mechanics and the complex processes that lead to large-scale seismic events. It also demonstrated the

A boy watching TV on Thanksgiving morning was suddenly jolted by a 6.0 magnitude earthquake in the family’s living room in Alaska on Thursday. The Alaska Earthquake Center said there was “no significant damage reported, likely because the earthquake was so deep, but people were certainly shaken thoroughly.” | CBS News

Alaska is no stranger to earthquakes as large as the one that struck Taiwan last night. Similar to Alaska's boundary, Taiwan sits atop a subduction zone. This type of setting is where the largest earthquakes occur. The tremendous shaking can also trigger the additional hazard of landslides. Large earthquakes make the whole world ring like a bell. This animation (from @earthscope_sci) shows how the seismic waves that traveled from the epicenter were picked up by seismometers in the northern hemis

🚨 M6.0 Earthquake – Matanuska Susitna Borough, Alaska 🚨 A magnitude 6.0 quake struck on November 27, 2025, at 8:11 a.m. local time, centered about 38 miles northwest of Anchorage. The depth was measured near 80 kilometers, which allowed the shaking to spread across a wide area. Instruments picked up a sharp initial jolt followed by several seconds of rolling motion linked to movement along the deeper section of the Alaska subduction zone. Agencies are reviewing updated readings and monitoring

Many of you have wondered whether there is a connection between last week's California quake and the earthquake swarm near Adak. There is no physical reason to link them. (1) While both events are on the borders of the same (Pacific) plate, the movement that produced the California quake was east–west lateral (Pacific plate moving west), while the Alaska events are north–south compressional (Pacific plate moving north). (2) It's true that each earthquake sends seismic waves across and through th

If you've been following earthquake news, you know that Japan recently had a fairly sizable one (M7.1), prompting their meteorological agency to issue a "megaquake advisory." We've has some inquiries about what this might indicate for Alaska, since we share a Pacific plate with Japan and lie just up the ocean from it. There is a lot to unpack here and I won't be able to cover all of it. First off, while a large earthquake does shift stress around, there's no indication that a single earthquake c
