Scale-free networks of earthquakes and aftershocks
, 2004 We propose a metric to quantify correlations between earthquakes. The metric consists of a product involving the time interval and spatial distance between two events, as well as the magnitude of the first one.

Wavelet‐Based Hurst Exponent Estimation
WIREs Computational Statistics, Volume 18, Issue 3, September 2026.The review explores how wavelet‐based methods for estimating the Hurst parameters have developed from their theoretical roots to real‐world applications in fields like biology, engineering, and telecommunications. The review aims to highlight key techniques, compare their strengths and limitations, and point out challenges that still need to be ...

Study on Coulomb Stress Triggering of the April 2015 M7.8 Nepal Earthquake Sequence
International Journal of Geophysics, 2016 In April 2015, a M7.8 earthquake occurred less than one month before a M7.3 earthquake near Kodari, Nepal. The Nepal earthquake sequences also include four larger (M > 6) aftershocks. To reveal the interrelation between the main shock and the aftershocks,

The effect of lateral variations of friction on crustal faulting
Annals of Geophysics, 1994 We propose that lateral variations in fault friction control the heterogeneity of slip observed in large earthquakes, We model these variations using a rate and state-dependent friction law, where we differentiate velocity-weakening into strong and weak ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract The recognition that relay zones along faults can act as barriers to earthquake propagation implies that rupture size may not be random and earthquakes are constrained by fault geometry. Resolution and observational biases can, however, complicate the integration of actual fault zone geometries into deterministic modeling strategies, thereby ...

Modeling the distribution of aftershocks data in Pakistan
, 2022 In the present study an effort has been made to find out the best fitting distribution to explain the aftershocks behavior in Pakistan. For this purpose two parameter Gamma, Weibull, Lognormal, Frechet and three parameter Generalized Extreme Value and ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract The 2024 Mw 7.5 Noto Peninsula earthquake provided an opportunity to investigate postseismic deformation in a tectonically complex back‐arc region in central Japan, where Miocene normal faults are reactivated under present‐day compression.

Annals of Geophysics, 2004 A damaging earthquake of Mw 7.7, which struck the Bhuj region of India on January 26, 2001, was followed by a large number of aftershocks. The aftershock data available at Gauribidanur Seismic Array Station (GBA), India, till 869 h following the main ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract We propose a method to infer detailed spatiotemporal variations in interplate coupling by integrating geodetic and seismic data. It examines whether focal mechanisms of intraplate earthquakes occurring near the plate interface align with the stressing rates caused by a geodetically derived slip‐deficit rate model, evaluating deviations from a ...

Seismotectonics of the 2001 Bhuj earthquake (Mw 7.7) in western India: Constraints from aftershocks [PDF]
, 2020 More than 500 aftershocks (M > 2.0) are relocated to study the source processes of the January 26, 2001 Bhuj earthquake (M W 7.7) in western part of the peninsular Indian shield.
