Mainshocks are aftershocks of conditional foreshocks: How do foreshock statistical properties emerge from aftershock laws [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The inverse Omori law for foreshocks discovered in the 1970s states that the rate of earthquakes prior to a mainshock increases on average as a power law ~ 1/(t_c-t)^p' of the time to the mainshock occurring at t_c.

Coupled multiphase flow and poromechanics: A computational model of pore pressure effects on fault slip and earthquake triggering

open access: yes, 2014
The coupling between subsurface flow and geomechanical deformation is critical in the assessment of the environmental impacts of groundwater use, underground liquid waste disposal, geologic storage of carbon dioxide, and exploitation of shale gas ...

Foreshocks, b Value Map, and Aftershock Triggering for the 2011 Mw 5.7 Virginia Earthquake

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2018
The 2011 Mw 5.7 Virginia earthquake and subsequent dense deployment provide us an unprecedented opportunity to study in detail an earthquake sequence within stable continental United States.

Evidence for Anthropogenic Surface Loading as Trigger Mechanism of the 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake

open access: yes, 2011
Two and a half years prior to China's M7.9 Wenchuan earthquake of May 2008, at least 300 million metric tons of water accumulated with additional seasonal water level changes in the Minjiang River Valley at the eastern margin of the Longmen Shan.

Fluid pressure waves trigger earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2015
AbstractFluids—essentially meteoric water—are present everywhere in the Earth's crust, occasionally also with pressures higher than hydrostatic due to the tectonic strain imposed on impermeable undrained layers, to the impoundment of artificial lakes or to the forced injections required by oil and gas exploration and production.

Earthquake Arrival Association with Backprojection and Graph Theory

open access: yes, 2019
The association of seismic wave arrivals with causative earthquakes becomes progressively more challenging as arrival detection methods become more sensitive, and particularly when earthquake rates are high.

relationship between large earthquakes and volcanic eruptions: A global statistical study

open access: yesVolcanica
It is now generally accepted that large earthquakes can promote eruptions at nearby volcanoes. However, the prevalence of “triggered” eruptions, as well as the distance and timescale over which triggering occurs, remain unclear.

Megathrust Stress Drop as Trigger of Aftershock Seismicity: Insights From the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake, Japan

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Numerous normal‐faulting aftershocks in subduction forearcs commonly follow large megathrust earthquakes. Postseismic normal faulting has been explained by stress changes induced by the stress drop along the megathrust. However, details of forearc stress

Networks of Recurrent Events, a Theory of Records, and an Application to Finding Causal Signatures in Seismicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We propose a method to search for signs of causal structure in spatiotemporal data making minimal a priori assumptions about the underlying dynamics. To this end, we generalize the elementary concept of recurrence for a point process in time to recurrent

Analysis on M7.3 earthquake occurred in the sea area of Hualien County,Taiwan,China and the possibility of its triggering volcanic activity

open access: yes地震科学进展
A magnitude 7.3 earthquake occurred at 7:58 a.m. (Beijing time) on April 3, 2024, in the sea area of Hualien County, Taiwan Province, China (23.81°N,121.74°E), which had a large seismic hazard impact and attracted widespread attention at home and abroad.
