New earthquakes are checked in the background. iOS determines when background checks run, so notifications may arrive some time after an earthquake occurs. EXPLORE EACH EARTHQUAKE • Open detailed earthquake information on the USGS website • Share earthquake information with friends and family • On iPad, view the earthquake list and map side by side NEARBY NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS For each earthquake, see the two nuclear power plants nearest to the epicenter, including their distance.
