2025-11-05 16:51:43 UTC (2025-11-05) · approx. 6:51 AM UTC-10 local
On November 5, 2025 at 16:51 UTC, a magnitude 3.2 shallow crustal earthquake struck 114 km NNE of Arctic Village, Alaska, at a depth of 0.1 km and coordinates 69.1125°, -144.7112°.
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.
