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.

Characteristics of Foreshock Subsolar Compressive Structures
AbstractThe 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 plasmoids are ...

Faults Self-Organized by Repeated Earthquakes in a Quasi-Static Antiplane Crack Model [PDF]
We study a 2D quasi-static discrete {\it crack} anti-plane model of a tectonic plate with long range elastic forces and quenched disorder. The plate is driven at its border and the load is transfered to all elements through elastic forces. This model can

Foreshocks and Mainshock Nucleation of the 1999 Mw 7.1 Hector Mine, California, Earthquake
Foreshocks provide valuable information on the nucleation process of an upcoming large earthquake. We applied high‐resolution similar‐waveform techniques for earthquake detection, location, and source parameter estimation to understand the space‐time ...

Analysis of short time-space range seismicity patterns in Italy
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 ...

Electro-Magnetic Earthquake Bursts and Critical Rupture of Peroxy Bond Networks in Rocks
We propose a mechanism for the low frequency electromagnetic emissions and other electromagnetic phenomena which have been associated with earthquakes. The mechanism combines the critical earthquake concept and the concept of crust acting as a charging ...

Dynamics of the foreshock compressional boundary and its connection to foreshock cavities [PDF]
AbstractWe use several global hybrid (kinetic ions, fluid electrons) simulation runs for steady and time‐varying interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) conditions to examine the dynamics of the foreshock compressional boundary (FCB) and its connection to foreshock cavities.

Simulation study of the inhomogeneous Olami-Feder-Christensen model of earthquakes
Statistical properties of the inhomogeneous version of the Olami-Feder-Christensen (OFC) model of earthquakes is investigated by numerical simulations. The spatial inhomogeneity is assumed to be dynamical.

Importance of small earthquakes for stress transfers and earthquake triggering
We estimate the relative importance of small and large earthquakes for static stress changes and for earthquake triggering, assuming that earthquakes are triggered by static stress changes and that earthquakes are located on a fractal network of ...

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.
