On June 30, 2024 at 22:13 UTC, a magnitude 4.1 shallow crustal earthquake struck 16 km SSE of Barishal, Pakistan, at a depth of 35.0 km and coordinates 36.1755°, 74.7478°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 4.1 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 21 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 406 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
