While deterministically predicting the time and location of earthquakes remains impossible,
earthquake forecasting models can provide estimates of the probabilities of earthquakes …

Abstract Interpretation of the b-value of earthquake frequency–magnitude distributions has
received considerable attention in recent decades. This paper provides a comprehensive …

Abstract The Campi Flegrei caldera is one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world
and since 2005 it is in unrest. Here we evaluate the 3D tomography of the b value at the …

Shear-wave splitting provides insight into geodynamic processes such as lithospheric
deformation and upper mantle flow. This study presents shear wave splitting parameters …

Abstract The Gutenberg–Richter exponent b is a measure of the relative proportion of large
and small earthquakes. It is commonly used to infer material properties such as …

Abstract The **aojiang Fault (XJF) Zone locates in the southeastern of Tibetan Plateau and
defines the boundary between the South China and Sichuan-Yunnan blocks. Historical …

Summary The Gutenberg–Richter b-value is thought to reflect the stress conditions in the
crust; therefore, spatial and/or temporal variations of the b-value can provide important …

The analysis of on-fault seismicity can enlighten the current stress state on the fault itself. Its
definition is relevant to individuate fault patches that have not released all the accumulated …

Abstract 3D earthquake locations, focal mechanisms and stress tensor distribution in a 16‐
month interval covering the 2018 Mt. Etna flank eruption, enabled us to investigate the …

The high seismic productivity of volcanic areas provides the chance to investigate the local
stress conditions with great resolution, by analysing the slope of the frequency-magnitude …
