Aftershock productivity of intermediate-depth earthquakes in Japan

SX Chu, GC Beroza - Geophysical Journal International, 2022 - academic.oup.com
Intermediate-depth earthquakes occur at temperatures and pressures thought to prohibit
brittle fracture and are deficient in aftershocks compared to shallow earthquakes. We search …
