The list of earthquakes by year (1990-Present) or by country can be found at the USGS Earthquake Hazards website.
In 2001 there was one earthquake magnitude 8 or greater, which was in Peru (M 8.4).
The USGS provides a list of significant earthquakes for 2001 as well as a worldwide map of earthquakes for 2001 and previous years.

What are the earthquakes in the Philippines that happened in the year 2001?
Some of the notable earthquakes in the Philippines in 2001 include a series of earthquakes in Mindanao in February, a 6.4 magnitude earthquake in Samar in May, and a 6.4 magnitude earthquake in Batanes in July. These events resulted in varying degrees of damage and casualties.
Do dams trigger earthquakes?
Dams trigger tiny earthquakes as the ground under the reservoir adapts to the great weight of water added to it. There is no indication that these are causes of large earthquakes. Massive dams like Hoover Dam or Grand Coulee would have triggered huge earthquakes if this was the case. The largest killer earthquakes generally occur in places with no large dams.
Do tsunami s have aftershocks?
No, tsunamis do not have aftershocks. Aftershocks are typically associated with earthquakes and are smaller earthquakes that follow the main event. Tsunamis are large ocean waves usually triggered by underwater earthquakes, landslides, or volcanic eruptions.
What type of plate boundary experiences the most earthquakes with large magnitudes?
Transform plate boundaries, where tectonic plates slide past one another, experience the most significant earthquakes with large magnitudes. The friction between the plates can cause stress to build up over time, leading to sudden releases of energy during earthquakes. Notable examples include the San Andreas Fault in California. While convergent boundaries also produce large earthquakes, transform boundaries are particularly known for their frequency and magnitude.
Can scientist predict large earthquakes?
Scientists are able to predict large earthquakes to a certain extent. With the use of certain statistical methods, many earthquakes are able to be predicted.
How many times have the San Jose Earthquakes won a MLS cup?
The San Jose Earthquakes have won the MLS Cup twice, in 2001 and 2003.
How many earthquakes have occurred worldwide in 2010?
It is impossible to tell. 2010 was a year of numerous large earthquakes around the globe. However, many smaller earthquakes occurred and many more that were too weak to be measured. It is estimated that millions of earthquakes occur each year.
What is the name of one of many earthquakes that happen during the days or month after a large earthquake?

How many large earthquakes were there in 2002?
The list of earthquakes by year (1990-Present) or by country can be found at the USGS Earthquake Hazards Program website.The USGS provides a list of significant earthquakes for 2002 as well as a worldwide map of earthquakes for that year and previous years. Lists for historical earthquakes from earlier years are also available.
How do human activities lead to earthquakes?
Construction of large artificial lakes can induce localized earthquakes.
What is seismic in earthquakes?
It relates to earthquakes or other tremors in the earth, such as those caused by large explosions
How many earthquakes does Los Angeles get per a year?
Los Angeles gets about 2 to 3 earthquakes a year. They are large enough to cause moderate damage to structures.
Earthquakes can cause a large downhill movement called?
Earthquakes can trigger landslides, which are large downhill movements of earth and rock.
What is a large earthquake rated on the moment magnitude scale?
Earthquakes with a magnitude greater than or equal to 6 are termed strong earthquakes. 7 or larger are termed major earthquakes. Earthquakes greater than or equal to 8 are termed great earthquakes. The term "large" is not actually used.However based on the above it could be argued that any earthquake with a magnitude greater than 6 is a large earthquake.
