How often do earthquakes with a magnitude of 8 to 8.9 occur across the globe?

On average, earthquakes with a magnitude of 8 to 8.9 occur about 10-20 times per year worldwide. They are considered major earthquakes with significant potential for damage and can have long-lasting effects.


Statment between the magnitude of a earthquake and how often earthquakes of the magnitude occur?

One statement you could write is that "Earthquakes of higher magnitudes are much rarer than those of lower magnitudes". The magnitude of earthquakes is a logarithmic scale, so a magnitude of 8 is TEN TIMES more powerful than a magnitude 7. This is why earthquakes of higher magnitudes are so much rarer than those of lower magnitudes.


How many earthquakes occur in one minute?

The answer depends on the magnitude of the earthquake. Over the last 20 years there have been approx 4 million earthquakes annually which is equivalent to an average of 8 every minute. Earthquakes of magnitude 7 or greater occur, on average, 0.00003 times a minute.
