Temporal stress changes caused by earthquakes: A review

JL Hardebeck, T Okada - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Earthquakes can change the stress field in the Earth's lithosphere as they relieve and
redistribute stress. Earthquake‐induced stress changes have been observed as temporal …

The physics of earthquakes

H Kanamori, EE Brodsky - Reports on progress in physics, 2004 - iopscience.iop.org
Earthquakes occur as a result of global plate motion. However, this simple picture is far from
complete. Some plate boundaries glide past each other smoothly, while others are …

Global variations of stress drop for moderate to large earthquakes

BP Allmann, PM Shearer - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
We investigate the global variation of earthquake stress drops using spectra of about 2000
events of mb≥ 5.5 between 1990 and 2007. We use an iterative least squares method to …

Forecasting the evolution of seismicity in southern California: Animations built on earthquake stress transfer

S Toda, RS Stein, K Richards‐Dinger… - … Research: Solid Earth, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
We develop a forecast model to reproduce the distribution of main shocks, aftershocks and
surrounding seismicity observed during 1986–2003 in a 300× 310 km area centered on the …

A new method for determining first-motion focal mechanisms

JL Hardebeck, PM Shearer - Bulletin of the …, 2002 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
We introduce a new method for determining earthquake focal mechanisms from P-wave first-
motion polarities. Our technique differs from previous methods in that it accounts for possible …
