Only earthquakes of magnitude 6 or above are included, unless they result in damage and\/or casualties, or are notable for some other reason. Events in remote areas will not be listed but included in statistics and maps. Countries are entered on the lists in order of their status in this particular year. All dates are listed according to UTC time. Maximum intensities are indicated on the Mercalli intensity scale and are sourced from United States Geological Survey (USGS) ShakeMap data. Another fairly quiet year as far as earthquakes above magnitude 7.0. The largest of the 12 events in this threshold were magnitude 7.7 and both Japan and Mexico experienced these. The Kuril Islands in Russia had a robust series of large earthquakes in March. Iran dominated the death toll for the year. One event in September left 20,000 dead. Japan had two destructive events including the joint largest event of the year. October had no events above magnitude 6 which is an unusual quiescence.Table of ContentsBy death toll[edit]By magnitude[edit]By month[edit]January[edit]February[edit]March[edit]April[edit]May[edit]June[edit]July[edit]August[edit]September[edit]October[edit]November[edit]December[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]By death toll[edit]Listed are earthquakes with at least 10 dead.By magnitude[edit]RankMagnitudeDeath tollLocationMMIDepth (km)Date= 17.728\u00a0Japan, off the east coast of HonshuVIII (Severe)44.0June 12= 17.79\u00a0Mexico, OaxacaIX (Violent)18.0November 2927.60\u00a0Soviet Union, Kuril Islands, RussiaVI (Strong)33.0March 2437.50\u00a0Soviet Union, Kuril Islands, RussiaVIII (Severe)33.0March 23= 47.40\u00a0Taiwan, off the southeast coastVI (Strong)17.0July 23= 47.420,000\u00a0Iran, Yazd ProvinceIX (Violent)33.0September 1657.20\u00a0New Zealand, Kermadec Islands(\u00a0)33.0February 9= 67.10\u00a0Soviet Union, Issyk-Kul Region, KyrgyzstanVIII (Severe)33.0March 24= 67.10\u00a0Solomon IslandsVII (Very strong)33.0November 5= 77.00\u00a0Tonga(\u00a0)33.0June 17= 77.00\u00a0Costa Rica, Guanacaste ProvinceVIII (Severe)56.0August 23= 77.02\u00a0Taiwan, off the east coastVI (Strong)33.0December 23Listed are earthquakes with at least 7.0 magnitude.By month[edit]January[edit]JanuaryStrongest magnitude6.6 Mw \u00a0JapanDeadliest6.6 Mw \u00a0Japan 29 deathsTotal fatalities298.0\u20138.907.0\u20137.906.0\u20136.975.0\u20135.91424.0\u20134.9182February[edit]FebruaryStrongest magnitude7.2 Mw \u00a0New ZealandTotal fatalities08.0\u20138.907.0\u20137.916.0\u20136.965.0\u20135.91394.0\u20134.9171March[edit]MarchStrongest magnitude7.6 Mw \u00a0Soviet UnionDeadliest5.6 Mw  Italy 2 deathsTotal fatalities48.0\u20138.907.0\u20137.936.0\u20136.9155.0\u20135.92104.0\u20134.9311DateCountry and locationMwDepth (km)MMINotesCasualtiesDeadInjured3[16]\u00a0Tonga6.233.04[17]\u00a0Tonga6.333.04[18][19]\u00a0Papua New Guinea, off the east coast of New Ireland (island)6.278.0V7[20]\u00a0Japan, Izu Islands6.9439.0A magnitude 6.0 foreshock occurred seconds earlier.11[21][22][23] Italy, Calabria5.633.0V2 people died and at least 51 were injured.
