1. Global distribution of earthquakes
Each circle represents an earthquake. Larger
circles indicate higher magnitude; color
represents depth. Hover over a circle for event
details.
2A. Earthquake frequency over time
The vertical axis shows the number of recorded
events per year.
2B. Magnitude distribution
The bars show how many earthquakes fall within
each magnitude interval.
3. Earthquake magnitude vs. depth
Events without a valid depth remain included in
the other charts but are omitted here. The
scatterplot is capped at 3,500 plotted points for
rendering performance when necessary.
4. Earthquake frequency by geographic region
Geographic regions are approximated from latitude
and longitude bands, not official country
boundaries. Use these regional comparisons as
exploratory rather than definitive continent-level
statistics.
