Magnitude 7.4 Russia

[Gillian Haberli]

A magnitude 7.4 earthquake has occurred near Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia, this event is thought to be an aftershock to the July 29th 2025 magnitude 8.8 event.

To support classroom engagement around this event, we’ve developed a new Teachable Moment presentation that provides background information, scientific context, and data visualizations to help your students explore the geophysical processes involved.
