Clustering analysis of seismicity and aftershock identification.
We introduce a statistical methodology for clustering analysis of seismicity in the time-space-energy domain and use it to establish the existence of two statistically distinct populations of earthquakes: clustered and nonclustered. This result can be used, in particular, for nonparametric aftershock identification. The proposed approach expands the analysis of Baiesi and Paczuski [Phys. Rev. E...
متن کاملSeismicity prior to the 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes
We report precursory seismic patterns prior to the 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes, as measured by four different methods based on changes in seismicity that can be used for earthquake forecasting: the b-value method, two methods of seismic quiescence evaluation, and an analysis of seismicity density in space and time. The spatial extent of precursory patterns differs from one method to the other and...
متن کاملRelation between stress heterogeneity and aftershock rate in the rate-and-state model
[1] We estimate the rate of aftershocks triggered by a heterogeneous stress change, using the rate-and-state model of Dieterich. We show that an exponential stress distribution Pt(t) exp( t/t0) gives an Omori law decay of aftershocks with time 1/t, with an exponent p = 1 Asn/t0, where A is a parameter of the rate-and-state friction law and sn is the normal stress. Omori exponent p thus decrease...
متن کاملAftershock seismicity of the 2010 Maule Mw=8.8, Chile, earthquake: Correlation between co-seismic slip models and aftershock distribution?
[1] The 27 February 2010 Maule, Chile (Mw=8.8) earthquake is one of the best instrumentally observed subduction zone megathrust events. Here we present locations, magnitudes and cumulative equivalent moment of the first 2 months of aftershocks, recorded on a temporary network deployed within 2 weeks of the occurrence of the mainshock. Using automatically-determined onset times and a back projec...
متن کاملApparent Clustering and Apparent Background Earthquakes Biased by Undetected Seismicity
In models of triggered seismicity and in their inversion with empirical data, the detection threshold md is commonly equated to the magnitude m0 of the smallest triggering earthquake. This unjustified assumption neglects the possibility of shocks below the detection threshold triggering observable events. We introduce a formalism that distinguishes between the detection threshold md and the min...
