Long-range, critical-point dynamics in oil field flow rate data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Earthquake triggering data exhibit long-range spatio-temporal correlations of the power-law form C(l) ∼ l−α and anomalously-slow temporal diffusion of the mean triggering distance of the form: 〈l〉 ∼ tH, with H < 0.5.

Megathrust Stress Drop as Trigger of Aftershock Seismicity: Insights From the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake, Japan

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Numerous normal‐faulting aftershocks in subduction forearcs commonly follow large megathrust earthquakes. Postseismic normal faulting has been explained by stress changes induced by the stress drop along the megathrust. However, details of forearc stress

Regional variations in the diffusion of triggered seismicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We determine the spatiotemporal characteristics of interearthquake triggering in the International Seismological Centre catalogue on regional and global scales. We pose a null hypothesis of spatially clustered, temporally random seismicity, and determine

Remote triggering of high magnitude earthquakes along plate boundaries

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
It has been shown that large magnitude earthquakes can remotely trigger other large magnitude earthquakes within three days. Such triggering of high magnitude earthquakes is potentially indicative of fault systems at the end of their seismic cycles. Here

Multiple fault slip triggered above the 2016 Mw 6.4 MeiNong earthquake in Taiwan

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
Rapid shortening in convergent mountain belts is often accommodated by slip on faults at multiple levels in upper crust, but no geodetic observation of slip at multiple levels within hours of a moderate earthquake has been shown before.

Earthquake triggering model based on normal-stress-dependent Nagata law: application to the 2016 Mie offshore earthquake

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2020
We propose a normal-stress-dependent Nagata law. Nagata et al. (J Geophys Res 117:B02314, 2012) revised the rate- and state-dependent friction law by introducing the shear stress dependence.

Coseismic Stress Change and Viscoelastic Relaxation after the 2008 Great Sichuan Earthquake

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Long-term stress accumulation influenced by coseismic stress changes and postseismic viscoelastic relaxation is considered critical to triggering giant earthquakes. Nevertheless, how the stress increase is interrupted by aftershocks and how it influences

九江—瑞昌地区显著地震动态库仑破裂应力变化分析

open access: yesDizhen xuebao, 2019
为了探究九江—瑞昌地区内的地震活动是否存在动态应力触发关系,本文选用多层黏弹性介质模型,计算了2005年九江—瑞昌MS5.7地震和2011年瑞昌—阳新MS4.6地震产生的动态库仑破裂应力变化。结果显示:九江—瑞昌MS5.7地震产生的动态库仑破裂应力变化,能触发其北东方向的53次地震;瑞昌—阳新MS4.6地震发生后15天内,小震活动增强区及九江—瑞昌MS5.7地震震源区的多次地震活动,可能与其动态应力触发作用有关。

Connection of large earthquakes occurring moment with the movement of the Sun and the Moon and with the Earth crust tectonic stress character [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2010
It is acceptable that earthquakes certain exogenous (cosmic) triggering factors may exist in every seismoactive (s/a) region and in Caucasus among them. They have to correct earthquake occurring moment or play the triggering role in case when the region ...

Foreshock migration preceding the 2016 Mw 7.0 Kumamoto earthquake, Japan

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
We investigated the spatiotemporal evolution of an earthquake sequence following a series of large shallow intraplate earthquakes, including a Mw 6.2 foreshock and Mw 7.0 main shock, in the Kumamoto area of Kyushu, SW Japan.
