Based on the depth of the hypocenter, earthquakes are
classified into superficial
(hypocenter between 0 e 70 and deep), intermediate (Hypocenter between 70 and 300 km deep) and
deep
(hypocenter between 300 and 720 km deep). The earthquake that occurred at 21:57 on 13 May 2024 with epicenter 6 km E Eraclea (VE), having a depth of 31.6 km is therefore classified as superficial.
Being of magnitude 2.3, therefore between 2 and 3, this earthquake is classified as "very light". This type of earthquake is not
generally felt, but recorded only by seismographs.
