A decrease in the number and intensity of the earthquakes was observed yesterday in Santorini and Amorgos, according to the EKSI seismology laboratory.

Specifically, the laboratory recorded more than 100 earthquakes, of which only two with 4 Richter sizes and no more than 4.5 Richter.

According to the daily seismic data analysis data of the laboratory, the two strongest earthquakes, 4.4, occurred at 17:40:09 and 17:42:22 (local time).

As stated in today’s announcement by the Interdisciplinary Risk and Crisis Management Committee of the NCSR, the distribution of the Edits is mainly confined to an area of ​​10-12 km long southwest of Anhydros, where the strongest earthquakes have been identified. “On February 13, there were no outbreaks of continuous micro-seismicity of ~ 1-2 hours, which often occurred all the time. There is generally a decline in the number and the size of the earthquakes, ”it says.

It is noted that from the launch of the seismic activity in the Santorini-Amorgos Zone on January 26 to February 12, 2025, the seismology laboratory (s) of the NCSR (http://dgsl.geol.uoa.gr/) has detected and detected in total. Over 17,500 selected earthquakes with mechanical learning methods (artificial intelligence), of which more than 15,400 with sizes M³1.0. On February 12, more than 1,000 earthquakes were recorded, with ~ 190 having a size of M³2.5, 16 earthquakes with M³4.0, and 5 earthquakes with M³4.5, with the largest earthquake in size 5.0.
