2022-06-27 22:49:50 UTC (2022-06-27) · approx. 3:49 AM UTC+5 local
On June 27, 2022 at 22:49 UTC, a magnitude 3.7 shallow crustal earthquake struck 11 km SE of Rohtak, India, at a depth of 10.0 km and coordinates 28.8231°, 76.6692°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.7 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 5.4 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 215 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
