An earthquake of 6.2 hit Alaska on Monday, a statement by the National Center for Seismology (NCS).
According to the statement, the earthquake hit at a shallow depth of 48 km, so it is susceptible to the shocks.
In the post on X, NCS said: “EQ of m: 6.2, on: 21/07/2025 03:58:02 ist, lat: 54,99 N, long: 159,98 W, depth: 48 km, location: Alaska Peninsula.”
At the beginning of July 17th, the statement of the National Center for Seismology (NCS) was stated by an earthquake of 7.3 on the Richter scale.
According to the NCS, there was a massive earthquake at a shallow depth of 36 km, so it was susceptible to shocks.
In the post on X, NCS said: “EQ from M: 7.3, on: 17/07/2025 02:07:42 ist, lat: 54,91 N, long: 160,56 W, depth: 36 km, location: Alaska peninsula.”
Shallow earthquake is generally more dangerous than deep earthquakes. This is because seismic waves of shallow earthquakes have a shorter distance for the road to the surface, resulting in stronger fraying of the Earth and potentially greater damage to structures and greater victims.
According to the US warning system Tsunami, a warning of the Tsunami, according to the US warning system Tsunami after an earthquake in the Gulf of Alask, reported New York Times.
Tsunami warnings are the most urgent warning issued by the National Meteorological Service in the United States, which means that people should move to higher land or go inland. Tsunami advice means that people should get out of coastal waters and stay away from the beaches and waterways. Tsunami Watch means that experts evaluate the threat, so stay tuned to more information.
Alaskan aleutic subduction system is one of the most seismically active globally and produces more> M8 earthquakes in the last century than any other. Many of these earthquakes, as well as coastal and submarines, create tsunami. The region contains more than 130 volcanoes and volcanic fields and contains more than three -quarters of American volcanoes that have exploded over the last two hundred years.
