(* originally reported by NEIC as Southern India, we feel that Western is a more appropriate identification of the geographic region. The magnitude has also been refined from a preliminary surface-wave based magnitude of 7.9 to a 7.7 Mw.)

The following are links to sites, graphics or general information about the recent earthquake in the Western region of India are contributed by the IRIS community.
