The relationship between the magnitude of earthquakes and their spatial and temporal
distribution has been observed to exhibit a scale invariance hypothesised to originate from …

The existence of magnitude dependence in earthquake triggering has been reported. Such
a correlation is linked to the issue of seismic predictability and it remains under intense …

The evaluation of the b value of the Gutenberg–Richter (GR) law, for a sample composed of
n earthquakes, presents a systematic positive bias δ b which is proportional to 1/n. In this …

The b‐value in earthquake magnitude‐frequency distribution quantifies the relative
frequency of large versus small earthquakes. Monitoring its evolution could provide …

How, when and where large earthquakes are generated remain fundamental unsolved
scientific questions. Intercepting when a fault system starts deviating from its steady behavior …

The variation in Coulomb failure stress (CFS) plays a crucial role in either increasing or
decreasing seismic activity. In cases in which the standard epidemic‐type aftershock …

The seismically active Saurashtra horst is located within the intraplate volcanic continental
margin of western India. The region is prone to moderate and low-magnitude earthquakes …

Among the most important questions that await an answer in seismology, perhaps one is
whether there is a correlation between the magnitudes of two successive seismic events …

The Epidemic Type Aftershock Sequence (ETAS) model is a widely used tool for cluster
analysis and forecasting, owing to its ability to accurately predict aftershock occurrences …

The seismic gap hypothesis states that fault regions where no large earthquake has recently
occurred, are more prone than others to host the next large earthquake. It can lead to the …
