2022-11-29 21:29:31 UTC (2022-11-29) · approx. 11:29 PM UTC+2 local
On November 29, 2022 at 21:29 UTC, a magnitude 3.1 shallow crustal earthquake struck 13 km N of Antalya, Turkey, at a depth of 6.5 km and coordinates 37.0273°, 30.6936°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.1 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 674 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 83 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
