Kyushu and Okinawa earthquake and Shindo history
Move from Japan's regions to prefectures, municipalities and observation histories. Counts describe stored reports, not relative earthquake risk.
What the Kyushu and Okinawa data represents
This page brings together observation histories for the prefectures in Kyushu and Okinawa. Each card counts earthquakes for which stations associated with that prefecture reported a local Shindo reading.
This is not a count of all earthquakes with an epicentre inside the region. The same event may appear in several prefecture histories, so the values should not be added together or treated as a risk ranking.
