Localization and coalescence of seismicity before large earthquakes

Y Ben-Zion, I Zaliapin - Geophysical Journal International, 2020 - academic.oup.com
We examine localization processes of low magnitude seismicity in relation to the occurrence
of large earthquakes using three complementary analyses:(i) estimated production of rock …

Variations of earthquake properties before, during, and after the 2019 M7. 1 Ridgecrest, CA, earthquake

Y Cheng, Y Ben‐Zion - Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
We attempt to clarify processes associated with the 2019 Ridgecrest earthquake sequence
by analyzing space‐time variations of seismicity, potency values, and focal mechanisms of …
