The epicenter for the magnitude 9.0 earthquake (originally recorded as 8.9) in Japan on March 11, 2011 was reported by U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and others to be 129 kilometers (80 miles) off the east coast of the Oshika Peninsula, Tōhoku, near Sendai at a depth of 32 kilometers (20 miles). This earthquake triggered the massive tsunami that followed shortly after.
