List of earthquakes in 1954
Script error: The function "infoboxTemplate" does not exist.
This is a list of earthquakes in 1954. Only magnitude 6.0 or greater earthquakes appear on the list. Lower magnitude events are included if they have caused death, injury or damage. All dates are listed according to UTC time. The year was characterized by a lack of large of events. The largest event of magnitude 7.8 occurred in Spain, albeit a rare event for the area, there were no deaths due to its depth. This quake was one of only eight to be greater than magnitude 7.0+. A significant quake struck Nevada in December. With a magnitude of 7.1, this was one of the largest in the state's history. No magnitude 7.0+ events were recorded south of the equator during the year. This is an extremely unusual occurrence, given that the seismic hotbeds of Indonesia, the south Pacific Islands, New Zealand and South America are all south of the equator. Total lives lost in the year amounted to 1,294. The vast majority of these came from Algeria, which suffered one of its worst disasters in September.
