Sentence examples for low stress drop from inspiring English sources

So the southern part of the Yellow Sea may be characterized by low stress drop.

Our estimated low stress drop may thus be consistent with that reported by Ito et al.

Therefore the low stress drop is probably characteristic of earthquakes in the Yellow Sea region.

We found that the cluster activity in the Tanzawa Mountains during January 2012 showed hypocenter migration and the activity included earthquakes with a low stress drop.

A stronger event (M ∼ 6) in the southern Yellow Sea in 1984 was previously reported to have a low stress drop.

The 2011 Yellow Sea event also has a low stress drop, which is lower than the typical value for shallow intraplate earthquakes, similar to the 1984 Southern Yellow Sea event.

Additionally, they argued that short recurrence intervals and low stress drops reflect a lower material strength in the region of the southern Yellow Sea.

Very-low-frequency earthquakes with extremely low stress drops located in the Nankai accretionary prism are likewise attributed to rupturing of fluid-saturated rock under extreme overpressure (Ito and Obara 2006).

Allmann and Shearer (2007) found that the patterns of high- and low-stress drop regions along the Parkfield segment of the San Andreas fault were largely unchanged before and after the 2004 M6.0 Parkfield earthquake from the analyses of the static stress drop of small earthquakes.

Since some LFTs are found to be modulated by Earth tides (Nakata et al., 2008; Rubinstein et al., 2008) and the moment release rate of the slow earthquake group is much smaller than that of regular earthquakes (Ide et al., 2007), they likely have low-stress drop and are sensitive to shear stress perturbations possibly induced by the preseismic slip of nearby megathrust earthquakes.
