Bayesian analysis of the modified Omori law [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research, 2012
In order to examine variations in aftershock decay rate, we propose a Bayesian framework to estimate the {K, c, p}‐values of the modified Omori law (MOL), λ(t) = K(c + t)−p. The Bayesian setting allows not only to produce a point estimator of these three parameters but also to assess their uncertainties and posterior dependencies with respect to the ...

Omori law for eruption foreshocks and aftershocks [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research, 2012
Using the 1973–2009 worldwide catalogs forM≥ 4.8 seismicity andVEI≥ 0 volcano eruptions, we compare the properties of seismic damage patterns contemporary with eruption with the properties of foreshocks and aftershocks of classic tectonic earthquakes. Using superposed epoch analysis, we demonstrated that the seismicity rate after eruption decreases as ...

Magnitude-dependent Omori law: Theory and empirical study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research, 2005
We propose a new physically-based ``multifractal stress activation'' model of earthquake interaction and triggering based on two simple ingredients: (i) a seismic rupture results from activated processes giving an exponential dependence on the local ...

Dynamical scaling and generalized Omori law [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2007
The power law decay of the aftershocks rate is observed only after a characteristic time scale c. The dependence of c on the mainshock magnitude MM and on the lower cut‐off magnitude MI is well established. By considering ten sequences recorded in the California Catalog we show that the aftershock number distribution becomes independent of both MM and ...

The Omori Law: The 150-Year Birthday Jubilee of Fusakichi Omori

Journal of Volcanology and Seismology, 2018
The outstanding Japanese seismologist Fusakichi Omori was born 150 years ago, on October 30, 1868. He discovered his first law in earthquake physics that now bears his name when he was 26. Essentially, Omori’s law tells us that the decay of aftershock rate follows a hyperbolic law.

Omori law for foreshocks and aftershocks in a realistic earthquake model

EPL (Europhysics Letters), 2019
We study a physical model for earthquakes which extends the standard spring-block model. It is able to quantitatively describe the observations which detect differences between the statistics of foreshocks and aftershocks and the properties of main ...

Bayesian estimation of the Modified Omori Law parameters for the Iranian Plateau

Journal of Seismology, 2016
The forecasting of large aftershocks is a preliminary and critical step in seismic hazard analysis and seismic risk management. From a statistical point of view, it relies entirely on the estimation of the properties of aftershock sequences using a set of laws with well-defined parameters.

Omori’s law: a note on the history of geophysics

Physics-Uspekhi, 2017
Abstract In the late nineteenth century, the Japanese seismologist Omori discovered the first law of earthquake physics, which states that the rate of aftershocks decreases hyperbolically with time. Over the years since then, there has been a vast amount of literature on this law, and the significance of its discovery has been ...

The Generalized Omori Law:. Magnitude Incompleteness or Magnitude Clustering

International Journal of Modern Physics B, 2009
The investigate the aftershock decay soon after the largest ten sequences occurred in Southern California in last 20 years. We show that this decay becomes independent on the mainshock magnitude MMand on the lower magnitude threshold MIif time is rescaled by an appropriate time scale fixed by the difference MM– MI.

Bulk-friction modeling of afterslip and the modified Omori law

Tectonophysics, 1997
Abstract Afterslip data from the Superstition Hills fault in southern California, a creep event on the same fault, the modified Omori law, and cumulative moments from aftershocks of the 1957 Aleutian Islands earthquake all indicate that the original formulation by Dieterich (1981) [Constitutive properties of faults with simulated gouge.
