Energy of Recent Mount St. Helens Earthquakes


St. Helens Energy Release
Last update: Thu Jan 15 10:42:42 PST 2009
Number of earthquakes used in this computation: 10

List of all earthquakes occurring at Mt. St. Helens since 12-01, 2009.

Guide

  • Each point represents the sum of energy released by all earthquakes in a 24 hour period.
  • Energy is computed in 24 hour time windows, every 12 hours.
  • Strain energy is plotted in ergs1/2.
  • Green triangles, if shown, represent phreatic explosions.
  • Cyan triangles, if shown, represent dome-building eruptions.
  • Red triangles, if shown, represent explosive magmatic eruptions.
