User:Jarda2020/List of earthquakes in 2020

This is a list of earthquakes in 2020. Only earthquakes of magnitude 6 or above are included, unless they result in damage or casualties, or are notable for some other reason. All dates are listed according to UTC time. The maximum intensities would be based on the Modified Mercalli intensity scale, and all data are sourced from the United States Geological Survey.

Compared to other years
An increase in detected earthquake numbers does not necessarily represent an increase in earthquakes per se. Population increase, habitation spread, and advances in earthquake detection technology all contribute to higher earthquake numbers being recorded over time.

Listed are earthquakes with at least 10 dead.

By magnitude
