The Arkalochori Mw = 5.9 Earthquake of 27 September 2021 Inside the Heraklion Basin: A Shallow, Blind Rupture Event Highlighting the Orthogonal Extension of Central Crete

open access: yesGeosciences, 2022
A strong, shallow earthquake occurred near Heraklion (Crete, Greece) on 27 September 2021. The earthquake produced significant ground deformation in the vicinity of Arkalochori village but without any evidence for surface ruptures of primary origin.

Earthquake Productivity Law in a Wide Magnitude Range

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Earthquakes are usually followed by aftershocks. The number of aftershocks—the so-called productivity—depends on the magnitude of the earthquake. In seismic modeling it is usually assumed that the number of aftershocks is approximately the same for ...

Analysis of short time-space range seismicity patterns in Italy

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1997
In our paper we analyze the data base obtained from the observations of the Italian Seismological Network from 1975 to 1994 by using a simple algotithm to determine the rate of occurrence of seismic events condi- tioned by the occurrence of previous ...

Mainshock-Integrated Aftershock Vulnerability Assessment of Bridge Structures

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Seismic fragility analysis is often conducted to quantify the vulnerability of civil structures under earthquake excitation. In recent years, besides mainshocks, strong aftershocks have been often witnessed to induce structural damage to engineered ...

Mw ≥ 5 aftershocks of the 2008 Sichuan earthquake: Analysis of temporal variation of Omori Law p-value

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Strong to great earthquakes considerably weaken the structural strength of the subsurface strata and civil constructions. The occurrence of Mw ≥ 5 aftershocks further contributes to the loss of human lives and damage to property.

Earthquakes in the Shadows: Why Aftershocks Occur at Surprising Locations

open access: yesThe Seismic Record, 2022
For decades there has been a debate about the relative effects of dynamic versus static stress triggering of aftershocks. According to the static Coulomb stress change hypothesis, aftershocks should not occur in stress shadows—regions where static ...

Forecasting Strong Subsequent Earthquakes in Greece with the Machine Learning Algorithm NESTORE

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
Aftershocks of earthquakes can destroy many urban infrastructures and exacerbate the damage already inflicted upon weak structures. Therefore, it is important to have a method to forecast the probability of occurrence of stronger earthquakes in order to ...

Environmental, Social, and Governance Information Disclosure: Who Discloses Wins?

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Information Disclosure (ESG‐ID) transitions from voluntary to mandatory disclosure, its drivers and impacts have become focal points of discussion. Existing research, however, lacks integration, which, in turn, has led to fragmented theoretical and practical insights.

Log-Linear Model Analysis of Aftershock Sequences: A Review on the 6 February Earthquakes in Turkey

open access: yesCumhuriyet Science Journal
Researchers have conducted numerous studies on earthquakes and aftershocks, some of which have utilized statistical analysis methods. However, there is no direct research examining the interaction between variables thought to influence aftershocks ...
