Whose decision is it anyway? Defendants’ prior experience shapes prosecutorial case dismissal
Abstract Studies of early case processing outcomes in the United States typically assume that decisions are made unilaterally by the prosecutor, such that prior contact with the legal system is universally associated with harsher outcomes for defendants.

After the Tohoku earthquake in 2011, we observed that aftershocks tended to occur in a wide region after such a large earthquake. These aftershocks resulted in secondary damage or delayed rescue and recovery activities.

b‐Values of Large Earthquake Sequences Depend on Their Mainshock Location
Abstract We evaluate four hypotheses regarding b‐values in large earthquake sequences using the Japanese earthquake catalog: H1 ${\mathcal{H}}_{1}$: Around large earthquakes, b‐values vary more than expected at random. H2 ${\mathcal{H}}_{2}$: b‐values decrease prior to large earthquakes.

An Analysis of the 2008 Ms 8.0 Wenchuan Earthquake’s Aftershock Activity
We investigated the magnitude–frequency relationship and decay pattern of an aftershock sequence using data from the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake. We analyzed the spatial variations in aftershock activity parameters b and p.

Prototyping the Seismogenic Fault Injection Test (SFIT)
Abstract The treatment of induced seismicity risk would benefit from a small, standardized injection test that probes the seismic response to fluid injection—to optimally improve earthquake forecasts before a larger injection commences. To accomplish this goal, we propose a “model differencing” framework: this framework optimizes injection protocols by

The Q$$ Q $$‐Score: A Magnitude‐Weighted Goodness‐of‐Fit Score for Earthquake Forecasting
ABSTRACT Accurate forecasting of large earthquakes is of great importance, yet most current earthquake forecast evaluation metrics, such as the log‐likelihood score, do not give additional weight to large‐magnitude events. To this end, magnitude‐weighted goodness‐of‐fit scores for earthquake forecasting have recently been introduced, such as potency ...

The Centenary of the Omori Formula for a Decay Law of Aftershock Activity.
The Omori formula n(t)=K(t+c)-1 and its modified form n(t)=K(t+c)-P have been successfully applied to many aftershock sequences since the former was proposed just 100 years ago. This paper summarizes studies using these formulae. The problems of fitting these formulae and related point process models to observational data are discussed mainly.

b-Values Observations in Taiwan: A Review
High seismicity with spatial heterogeneity in Taiwan makes this region one of the best natural laboratories for seismological researches. Numerous seismicity studies, including the b-value, have been performed for more than one century.

Abstract Postseismic afterslip has been inferred to occur on fault barriers surrounding coseismic asperities, which can be explained by velocity‐strengthening friction in barriers and velocity‐weakening friction in asperities. However, afterslip also exhibits spatial overlap with coseismic slip for some events.
