2025-03-03 23:25:51 UTC (2025-03-03) · approx. 2:25 PM UTC-9 local
On March 3, 2025 at 23:25 UTC, a magnitude 3.2 shallow crustal earthquake struck 99 km ENE of Eagle Village, Alaska, at a depth of 7.4 km and coordinates 65.1415°, -139.1765°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.2 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 951 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 97 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
