POV

The "tragically, six cows died" line is so beautiful that I can't bear to remove it. Ashibaka (tock) 03:26, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

News

Nothing in the news but I saw:

2006/04/20 23:25 M 7.7 KORYAKIA, RUSSIA Z= 43km 61.09N 167.10E

http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsww/Maps/10/170_60.php

on USGS information bulletin and that means a 7.7 on the Richter Scale.. that's pretty darn powerfull and it is in the region if i am not mistaken.

Agree to merge 2006 Kamchatka Quake with "Kamchatka Quakes"... as noted above both articles... Cesium_133 (talk) 22:59 UTC, 20 May 2009

How do they now the magnitude and location of the event if this happened in 1700s201.218.67.29 (talk) 22:11, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Since I would consider this article to be a list of Kamchatka megathrust earthquakes, I removed the merge tags since the 2006 Kamchatka earthquakes occurred in the far north of the peninsula (and Kamchatka is quite a large one}, and was not megathrust.

New Pic

I went to the USGS and uploaded their "earthquakes since 1900" image. They only had a detail on the 1952 event, and the pic self-generated was only marginally better than the overview. Feel free to add that one if you like. (http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/world/events/1952_11_04.php) I figured I would leave up the picture request until something better comes along.
