- Coordinates: 40.2515° N, 142.1614° E
- Depth: 34 km
- Number of “did you feel it” reports (USGS DYFI): 95
The blue and white areas of the diagram show the directions of compression and extension during the rupture; the shape indicates the fault type (normal, reverse, or strike-slip). The solution yields two mathematically equivalent fault planes — which one is the actual rupture plane is usually unknown without additional geological context:
| Plane | Strike | Dip | Rake |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 32° | 63° | 107° |
| 2 | 177° | 32° | 60° |
The data is preliminary (status: reviewed) and may be revised by USGS as additional information becomes available.
