Scale-free networks of earthquakes and aftershocks.
We propose a metric to quantify correlations between earthquakes. The metric consists of a product involving the time interval and spatial distance between two events, as well as the magnitude of the first one. According to this metric, events typically are strongly correlated to only one or a few preceding ones. Thus a classification of events as foreshocks, main shocks, or aftershocks emerges...
متن کاملComplex networks of earthquakes and aftershocks
We invoke a metric to quantify the correlation between any two earthquakes. This provides a simple and straightforward alternative to using space-time windows to detect aftershock sequences and obviates the need to distinguish main shocks from aftershocks. Directed networks of earthquakes are constructed by placing a link, directed from the past to the future, between pairs of events that are s...
متن کاملEarthquakes, Aftershocks, and Total Energy
History demonstrates the great value of frequency domain data for understanding the physics of complex processes. The Cumulative Spectral Power (CSP) opens a new window into the study of earthquake evolution [2]. For this purpose, the CSP has a significant advantage over the Power Spectral Density (PSD) from which it is derived by integration. The FFT spectrum used to generate the PSD is inhere...
متن کاملScale-Free Network of Earthquakes
The district of southern California is divided into small cubic cells. Each cell is regarded as a vertex of a random graph, when earthquakes with any values of magnitude occur therein. Successive earthquakes define an edge and a loop. Then, the seismic data are analyzed from the viewpoint of an evolving random network. It is found that the distribution of connectivities in the earthquake networ...
متن کاملAre Aftershocks of Large Californian Earthquakes Diffusing?
We analyze 21 aftershock sequences of California to test for evidence of space-time diffusion. Aftershock diffusion may result from stress diffusion and is also predicted by any mechanism of stress weakening. Here, we test an alternative mechanism to explain aftershock diffusion, based on multiple cascades of triggering. In order to characterize aftershock diffusion, we develop two methods, one...
