Mw 6.3 Izu Islands, Japan Region

updated 19 January 2023

report

On 16 January 2023 a strong earthquake occurred at the Izu Islands in the Japan Region at a depth of 418 km. The seismic event occurred at 04:49:53 UTC and had an estimated moment magnitude (Mw) 6.3.

The estimated primary trigger of this seismic event is a lunar conjunction with Jupiter on 13 January 2023.

On 13 January a lunar conjunction occurred with Jupiter, which often results in (some) increased seismic activity in the following days. In addition, the planetary conjunction Mercury-Sun-Saturn occurred on 14 January, which may have had some effect. Another strong earthquake occurred a day earlier in Northern Sumatra. An atmospheric fluctuation was recorded on 11 January 2023 crossing Japan.
