2021-05-10 23:21:36 UTC (2021-05-10) · approx. 3:21 PM UTC-8 local
On May 10, 2021 at 23:21 UTC, a magnitude 3.1 shallow crustal earthquake struck 6km SSE of Guadalupe Victoria, B.C., MX, at a depth of 16.3 km and coordinates 32.2445°, -115.0747°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.1 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 722 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 86 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
