Sentence examples for pattern of earthquakes from inspiring English sources

The spatial pattern of earthquakes in Fig. 2(c) is the same as Fig. 2(a): only the forecast rate decreased.

So, the geometry of source-receiver configuration, the size, and the radiation pattern of earthquakes are considered in the theoretical calculation.

In a sadly prescient turn of events, Laurent Bollinger, from the CEA research agency in France, and his colleagues, uncovered the historical pattern of earthquakes during fieldwork in Nepal last month, and anticipated a major earthquake in exactly the location where Saturday's big tremor has taken place.

It has been known for some time that rainfall also influences the pattern of earthquake activity in the Himalayas, where the 2015 Nepal earthquake took close to 9,000 lives, and where the threat of future devastating quakes is very high.

Further continual observation will allow us to identify whether quiescence in this region is a significant anomaly compared with the pattern of earthquake occurrences during a longer time span.

To examine the long-term pattern of earthquake occurrences in the area of the above swarm, we considered the time series of earthquakes in the region of cluster-A from 2004 to 2014 according to the KOERI earthquake catalogue (Fig. 9) with considering the frequency (within 2-week intervals) of earthquakes.

In "Estimation of frequency-dependent site amplification factors" section, we assumed that radiation pattern of earthquake k was common to stations i and j if we picked up the interstation distance was less than 30 km and epicentral distance was longer than 100 km; however, the assumption might not be valid in some cases.

Combining geologic maps, high-resolution depth and gravity readings, and historical patterns of earthquakes in the region, the authors argue that this sudden halt was due to a geologic discontinuity in the plate, where Japan's oldest rocks (to the north) are juxtaposed against more recent, mainly volcanic rocks.

In the last few decades, tremendous efforts have been made along the Himalayan arc to understand the patterns of earthquake occurrences, size, extent, and return periods.

Such geodetic observations provide data on space time variations in the inter-plate coupling, which are useful to infer frictional properties that govern diverse patterns of earthquake occurrences, including fast and slow ruptures (Scholz 1998; Obara and Kato 2016).

Already, in his earth-science sleuthing, Dr. Gates has shed new light not only on the pattern of local earthquakes but also on the Harriman watershed in a time of drought.
