Investigating the universal character of k–M slope in earthquake catalogs from the Visibility Graph method [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
The b-value of the Gutenberg–Richter law, which describes the magnitude-frequency relationship of seismicity, is the most widely investigated statistical parameters derived from the study of earthquake catalogs.

Characteristics of the foreshock occurrence for Mj3.0 to 7.2 shallow onshore earthquakes in Japan

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2022
We use the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) earthquake catalogue from January, 2001 to February, 2021 to investigate the spatiotemporal foreshock occurrence for shallow (within 30 km depth) onshore earthquakes (Mj3.0 to 7.2). We find clear peaks for the

Statistical and clustering analysis of microseismicity from a Saskatchewan potash mine

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2023
Microseismicity is expected in potash mining due to the associated rock-mass response. This phenomenon is known, but not fully understood. To assess the safety and efficiency of mining operations, producers must quantitatively discern between normal and ...

Incorporating Foreshocks in an Epidemic-like Description of Seismic Occurrence in Italy

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
The Epidemic Type Aftershock Sequence (ETAS) model is a widely used tool for cluster analysis and forecasting, owing to its ability to accurately predict aftershock occurrences.

Enhanced Tidal Sensitivity of Seismicity Before the 2019 Magnitude 7.1 Ridgecrest, California Earthquake

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Earth's crust is continuously subjected to oscillatory stress perturbations due to the solid Earth and ocean tides. The seismic response to such stress modulations carries information on earthquake physics and crustal properties.

Spatiotemporal Analysis of the Background Seismicity Identified by Different Declustering Methods in Northern Algeria and Its Vicinity

open access: yesAxioms, 2023
The main purpose of this paper was to, for the first time, analyse the spatiotemporal features of the background seismicity of Northern Algeria and its vicinity, as identified by different declustering methods (specifically: the Gardner and Knopoff ...

Connection between Variations of the Probability Distribution of the Recurrence Time and Phases of the Seismic Activity

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
The probability distribution of the interevent time between two successive earthquakes has been the subject of numerous studies for its key role in seismic hazard assessment.

Tsallis q-Statistics in Seismology

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
Non-extensive statistical mechanics (or q-statistics) is based on the so-called non-additive Tsallis entropy. Since its introduction by Tsallis, in 1988, as a generalization of the Boltzmann–Gibbs equilibrium statistical mechanics, it has steadily gained ground as a suitable theory for the description of the statistical properties of non-equilibrium ...

Estimation of the Tapered Gutenberg-Richter Distribution Parameters for Catalogs with Variable Completeness: An Application to the Atlantic Ridge Seismicity

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The use of the tapered Gutenberg-Richter distribution in earthquake source models is rapidly increasing, allowing overcoming the definition of a hard threshold for the maximum magnitude.

Temporal distribution characteristics of earthquakes in Taiwan, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The characteristics of seismic temporal distribution represent an important basis for earthquake prediction and seismic hazard analysis. In this paper, based on the seismic catalogs in Taiwan, and using Poisson (exponential distribution), Gamma ...
