Tremor Today, Friday, May 30 in Chile: Consultation Epicenter and Magnitude - Clone - La Tercera

During this day, earthquakes of varying intensity have been recorded in different parts of the country.However, most of the movements are imperceptible, because Chile is located at the limit of the tectonic plates of Nazca and South America, whose movements produce vibrations from part of the earth's crust.For safety reasons, it is important to keep informed about the recent tremors that are recorded in the country, a work carried out by the Nat…

At what depth do earthquakes occur? Earthquakes take place in the lithosphere, which considers the crust and top of the mantle, reaching from the surface to about 800 kilometers deep. It should be noted that the force of the earthquake is related to the source of seismic movement. Thus, one of 10 kilometers will register greater intensity compared to one of 70 kilometers, since the force will be more attenuated.
