At 01:08:15 (UTC) on November 23, a magnitude 6.1 earthquake occurred in Western Turkey.

At 16:39:05 (UTC) on November 22, a magnitude 6.2 earthquake occurred 29 km southwest of Las Brisas, Mexico.

At 10:02:46 (UTC) on November 4, a magnitude 6.1 earthquake occurred approximately 80 kilometers southwest of Bahía de Kino, Mexico in the Gulf of California.

At 11:57:11 (UTC) on October 20, a magnitude M6.7 earthquake occurred about 62 kilometers offshore from Boca Chica, Panama.

At 18:05:06 UTC on September 19, a magnitude 7.6 earthquake occurred on the coast of Michoacán, Mexico. For more information, see the USGS Earthquake Hazards Program event page.

At 7:42:46 UTC on April 21, a magnitude 6.7 earthquake occurred offshore of Nicaragua 58 kilometers southwest of Masachapa.

At 11:35:46 (UTC) on January 11, a magnitude 6.8 earthquake occurred about 70 kilometers off Alaska’s Umnak Island, followed by a magnitude 6.6 event nearby at 12:39:31 (UTC).

At 16:25:07 (UTC) on January 6, 2022, a magnitude 6.1 earthquake occurred offshore of Nicaragua, about 58 kilometers south of Corinto.

At 1:47:47 (UTC) on September 8, 2021, a magnitude 7.0 earthquake occurred near Acapulco, Mexico. The earthquake is associated with the plate boundary, where the oceanic Cocos plate collides with and subducts beneath Mexico. Slip occurred with a reverse motion and centered at a depth of 20 kilometers, producing a local tsunami warning but no warning for other regions in the Pacific.

At 12:29:09 (UTC) on August 14, a shallow magnitude 7.2 earthquake occurred 12 kilometers northeast of Saint-Louis du Sud in Haiti, with oblique reverse motion on the fault.
