Anthropogenic Triggering of Large Earthquakes
The physical mechanism of the anthropogenic triggering of large earthquakes on active faults is studied on the basis of experimental phenomenology, i.e., that earthquakes occur on active tectonic faults, that crustal stress values are those measured in situ and, on active faults, comply to the values of the stress drop measured for real earthquakes, that the static friction coefficients are tho...
متن کاملIs earthquake triggering driven by small earthquakes?
Using a catalog of seismicity for Southern California, we measure how the number of triggered earthquakes increases with the earthquake magnitude. The trade-off between this relation and the distribution of earthquake magnitudes controls the relative role of small compared to large earthquakes. We show that seismicity triggering is driven by the smallest earthquakes, which trigger fewer events ...
متن کاملDynamic triggering of shallow earthquakes near Beijing, China
S U M M A R Y We perform a comprehensive analysis of dynamic triggering around the Babaoshan and Huangzhuang-Gaoliying faults near Beijing, China. The triggered earthquakes are identified as impulsive seismic arrivals with clearP and S waves in 5 Hz high-pass-filtered three-component velocity seismograms during the passage of large amplitude body and surface waves of large teleseismic earthquak...
متن کاملRupture complexity of the Mw 8.3 sea of okhotsk earthquake: Rapid triggering of complementary earthquakes?
[1] We derive a finite slip model for the 2013Mw 8.3 Sea of Okhotsk Earthquake (Z= 610 km) by inverting calibrated teleseismic P waveforms. The inversion shows that the earthquake ruptured on a 10° dipping rectangular fault zone (140 km× 50 km) and evolved into a sequence of four large sub-events (E1–E4) with an average rupture speed of 4.0 km/s. The rupture process can be divided into two main...
