M 4.6 Earthquake in Vanuatu
Depth: 10 km • • USGS & EMSC
Al ocurrir a poca profundidad (10.0 km), las ondas sísmicas llegan con menor atenuación a la superficie: suele percibirse como una sacudida más rápida y directa cerca del epicentro, perdiendo fuerza rápidamente al alejarse.

Live M 4.6 earthquake in Vanuatu at 10 km depth (2026-10-28 02:26 UTC). Interactive 3D map, P/S wave arrival & official USGS/EMSC telemetry.
According to Gutenberg-Richter and Hanks-Kanamori scaling, an M 4.6 earthquake releases a scalar seismic moment of 1.00 × 1016 N·m and radiates 501.19 GJ (~139,219 kWh) along an estimated subsurface fault patch of 1.9 km. From its 10.0 km hypocenter (-13.848°, 165.538°), P-waves (~6.1 km/s) arrive in ~1.6s and S-waves (~3.5 km/s) in ~2.9s (Δt S-P: 1.2s). ID: 20261028_0000410 (EMSC, NEIC).
