Earthquakes in 2010 resulted in nearly 336,000 fatalities. Primarily, the 2010 Haiti earthquake caused an estimated 316,000 deaths (Jan 2011 Haitian gov't figures) to that country, making it the 6th deadliest earthquake in recorded history. Also notable, the 2010 Chile earthquake registered an 8.8 on the moment magnitude scale, ranking it as the sixth strongest earthquake since 1900. The tsunami associated with the Chile earthquake caused tsunami advisories and warning across the entire Ocean rim, also known as the Ring of Fire.

To prevent this list from becoming unmanageable, only earthquakes of magnitude 6 or above are included, unless they are notable for some other reason.

[edit] Compared to other years

Besides general speculation, as for now, one cannot state that 2010 is an anomalous year in relation to seismic activity because statistical data does not exhibit any significant eccentricity. The following is the data held online during April 19, 2010, by USGS, and located by the US Geological Survey National Earthquake Information Center, in relation to the quantity of earthquakes happening during the last decade.[5] Approximation of average (μ), variance (σ²) and deviation (σ) were obtained using data only until 2009. This data can be located at the Global Earthquake search page

Note that 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. USGS's Earthquake Myths has more information.
