[1] Because of short recurrence times and known locations, small repeating earthquakes present a rare predictable opportunity for detailed field observations. They are used to study fault creeping velocities, earthquake nucleation, stress drops, and other aspects of tectonophysics, earthquake mechanics, and seismology. An intriguing observation about repeating earthquakes is their scaling of re...

[1] In the paper “Scaling of small repeating earthquakes explained by interaction of seismic and aseismic slip in a rate and state fault model" by Ting Chen and Nadia Lapusta (Journal of Geophysical Research, 114, B01311, doi:10.1029/ 2008JB005749, 2009), Figure 8 had an incorrect label for the horizontal axis and hence an incorrect caption. The error does not change the conclusions of the stud...
