Uncovering the distribution of magnitudes and arrival times aftershocks is a key to comprehend characteristics sequence earthquakes, which enables us predict seismic activities hazard assessments. However, identifying number immediately after main shock practically difficult due contaminations arriving waves. To overcome difficulty, we construct likelihood based on detected data incorporating d...

This study is based on a data set of aftershocks (location, fault−plane solutions) following the M=5.1 Arudy earthquake (02/29/80, French Western Pyrenees), and complementary geomorphological data (virtual geology using DEM and aerial photography). Data processing using Geophysical Information System are combined with identification of multi−structures based on the anisotropic wavelet formalism...

A simplified stochastic model for earthquake occurrence focusing on the spatio-temporal interactions between earthquakes is presented. The model is a marked point process model in which each earthquake is represented by its magnitude and coordinates in space and time. The model incorporates the occurrence of aftershocks as well as the buildup and subsequent release of strain. The parameters of ...

Event correlation between aftershocks in the coherent noise model is studied by making use of natural time, which has recently been introduced in complex time-series analysis. It is found that the aging phenomenon and the associated scaling property discovered in the observed seismic data are well reproduced by the model. It is also found that the scaling function is given by the q-exponential ...

Earthquake clustering phenomena such as aftershocks, foreshocks, and pairing of mainshocks are prominent and characteristic features of earthquake occurrence. Because the earthquake nucleation process controls the time and place of occurrence of earthquakes, non-linear dependence of nucleation times on stress changes can strongly affect the spatial and temporal patterns of earthquake occurrence...

We study the cascading dynamics immediately before and immediately after 219 market shocks. We define the time of a market shock T{c} to be the time for which the market volatility V(T{c}) has a peak that exceeds a predetermined threshold. The cascade of high volatility "aftershocks" triggered by the "main shock" is quantitatively similar to earthquakes and solar flares, which have been describ...

We have compared aftershock patterns following several moderate to large earthquakes with the corresponding distributions of coseismic slip obtained from previous analyses of the recorded strong ground motion and teleseismic waveforms. Well-located aftershock hypocenters are projected onto the main shock fault plane, and their positions are examined relative to the zones of coseismic displaceme...
