It seems like there have been a lot of earthquakes occuring in recent weeks, and scientists are noticing, says NBC. In April alone, a magnitude-8.2 tremor struck offshore of Iquique, Chile on Apr. 1; a magnitude-7.6 quake struck Solomon Islands on Apr. 12; and a 7.5-magnitude earthquake struck 164 miles southwest of Mexico City just last week.

According to NBC, scientists are analyzing seismic waves to see if the Apr. 1 earthquake may have triggered the numerous quakes that have followed, including the most recent one near Mexico City.
