Short Note Constant Stress Drop from Small to Great Earthquakes in Magnitude-Area Scaling
Earthquakes span a tremendous range of scales, more than 5 orders of magnitude in length. Are earthquakes fundamentally the same across this huge range of scales, or are the great earthquakes somehow different from the small ones? We show that a robust scaling law seen in small earthquakes, with stress drops being independent of earthquake size, indeed holds for great earthquakes as well. The s...
متن کاملEvidence for Recent Large Magnitude Explosive Eruptions at Damavand Volcano, Iran with Implications for Volcanic Hazards
Damavand is a large dormant stratovolcano in the Alborz Mountains of northern Iran located in one of the most populous provinces, which could be adversely affected by tephra fall from Damavand. The youngest known eruption is a lava flow on the western flanks with an age of 7.3 ka. The volcanic products are predominantly porphyritic trachyandesite. Three major young pumice deposits, named here a...
متن کاملMagnitude Scaling of Induced Earthquakes
Presented are the results of an earthquake magnitude homogenization exercise for several datasets of induced earthquakes. The result of this exercise is to show that homogeneous computation of earthquake momentand local-magnitude is useful in hazard assessment of Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGSs). Data include records from EGSs in Basel (Switzerland), Soultz (France) and Cooper Basin (Australi...
متن کاملMulti - Scale Gradient Magnitude
A partitioning of an nD image is deened as the watersheds of some locally computable inhomogeneity measure. Dependent on the scale of the inhomogeneity measure a coarse or ne partitioning is deened. By analysis of the structural changes (catastrophes) in the measure introduced when scale is increased, an multi-scale linking of segments can be deened. This paper describes the multi-scale linking...
