The tremor was recorded around noon on Monday, March 30th, 2026, at 1:00 pm local time, at an intermediate depth of 149. km below the surface.The event was filed by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), the first seismological agency to report it.A second report was later issued by Indonesia's Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency, which listed it as a magnitude 5.0 earthquake. Other agencies reporting the same quake include the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake at magnitude 5.2, and the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) at magnitude 5.2.Generally quakes of this magnitude are recorded by more than one agency and the results can vary, with subsequent reports that come in after the first one often showing more accuracy.Towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Tiakur (pop. 5,200) located 107 km from the epicenter.VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available.

When aftershocks are detected, we will update this section.What are aftershocks?Larger earthquakes (above magnitude 5 or so) such as this one are usually followed by smaller ones known as aftershocks that occur in the same area during the days, weeks, months or even years after the main shock.[More info]What about this quake?Based on its magnitude, the fault that was active during the quake likely ruptured beneath a surface area of approximately 8 km2 (3 square miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 5 km (3 mi).[More info]Recorded aftershocks, latest first (0 quake)Mar 30, 2026 01:00 pm (Jayapura)30 minutes ago4.9149 km0 km - This quake214 km NE of Lospalos, Timor LesteMain Shock (this quake)MoreMap of aftershocksEarthquake statisticsAverage number of earthquakesBased on data from the past 26 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 125 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):Mag. 7 or higher: 0.06 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 17.9 years)Mag. 6 or higher: 0.35 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 2.9 years)Mag. 5 or higher: 6.9 quakes per yearMag. 4 or higher: 118 quakes per year (or 9.8 quakes per month)Mag. 3 or higher: 125 quakes per year (or 10.4 quakes per month)Mag. 2 or higher: 132 quakes per year (or 11 quakes per month)The area where this quake occurred has a very high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 7 quakes above magnitude 7 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 15 to 20 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquakeThe earthquake occurred 1 day 9 hours after a magnitude 5.9 earthquake had hit on Sunday, Mar 29, 2026, at 03:38 am local time (Asia/Jayapura GMT +9) in 92 km (57 mi) distance to the west:Mag. 5.9 earthquake 141 km NE of Lospalos - Timor Leste - The largest quake near the epicenter of this quake during the 10 years before was an event of magnitude 7.9.
