Scientists report unusual seismic activity in Antarctica: over 30,000 tremors The earthquakes range from 0.9 to 5.6 magnitude and took place from August to November. More than 30,000 tremors have occurred since the end of August in the Antarctic peninsula, according to a report from the National Seismological Center of Chile. The researchers linked them to the movement of tectonic plates but said the number was unusual and could in fact even be larger.

The ranged greatly in intensity (from 0.9 to 5.6), with one earthquake even reaching a magnitude of on November 6th, the researchers said. The earthquake intensity scale is logarithmic so a magnitude 5 earthquake is 10 times stronger than a magnitude 4 earthquake.
