Recognizing the waveform of a foreshock [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Abstract The 2011 Mw9.1 Tohoku, Japan, earthquake is the paradigmatic example of an earthquake anticipated by a significant foreshock activity, with a Mw7.3 earthquake occurred two days before, within about 10 km 1. Recent results 2 show that statistically relevant changes can be found in the magnitude distribution after the Mw7.3 foreshock but

The Role of Disorder in Foreshock Activity

open access: yesGeosciences
Foreshocks, observed before some large earthquakes, remain debated in terms of their origins and predictive value. While aftershocks fit well within bottom-up triggering models like ETAS, foreshocks may arise from distinct preparatory processes ...

Nucleation and Cascade Features of Earthquake Mainshock Statistically Explored from Foreshock Seismicity

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
The relation between the size of an earthquake mainshock preparation zone and the magnitude of the forthcoming mainshock is different between nucleation and domino-like cascade models.

Synchronization and desynchronization in the Olami-Feder-Christensen earthquake model and potential implications for real seismicity [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2011
The Olami-Feder-Christensen model is probably the most studied model in the context of self-organized criticality and reproduces several statistical properties of real earthquakes.

Characteristics of foreshock activity inferred from the JMA earthquake catalog

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2018
We investigated the foreshock activity characteristics using the Japan Meteorological Agency Unified Earthquake Catalog for the last 20 years. Using the nearest-neighbor distance approach, we systematically and objectively classified the earthquakes into

Spatially Consistent Small‐Scale Stress Heterogeneity Revealed by the 2008 Mogul, Nevada, Earthquakes

open access: yesThe Seismic Record, 2023
We compute and analyze stress drops for 4175 earthquakes (M_L 0–5) in the 2008 Mogul, Nevada, swarm–mainshock sequence using a spectral decomposition approach that uses depth‐dependent path corrections.

A model of foreshock occurrence [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 1989
SUMMARY We have constructed a model for the occurrence of foreshocks and foreshock sequences. The foreshocks as well as the main shock are assumed to occur because of the abrupt coalescence of pre-existing cracks. Coalescence occurs if the stress intensity factors at the crack tips exceed a certain critical value.

Can foreshocks be discriminated from seismic swarms?

open access: yes, 2023
The largest earthquakes control large part of the energy budget of seismogenic structures which is progressively accumulated in the adjoining volumes meanwhile the fault system is kept locked.

Foreshock Migration Preceding the 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka Earthquake: Insights From Single‐Station Observations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
We investigate the spatiotemporal evolution of foreshocks preceding the 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka earthquake by applying single‐station analysis to waveforms recorded at the nearest seismic station.

Characteristics of Foreshock Subsolar Compressive Structures

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2023
Abstract The turbulent foreshock region upstream of the quasi‐parallel bow shock is dominated by waves and reflected particles that interact with each other and create a large number of different foreshock transients. The structures with the enhanced magnetic field, Short Large Amplitude Magnetic Structures, and density spikes named ...
