Fig. 3: On-fault vs. distributed seismicity.
From: Rock and fault rheology explain differences between on fault and distributed seismicity
a b-values for on-fault vs. down-dip hangingwall seismicity, DHwS, before the two major events of Visso-Norcia, and (b) for the entire sequence from 08/15/2016 to 08/15/2017. c b-values for the seismicity in clusters C1-C3. d Time evolution of the daily number of earthquakes and magnitudes for on-fault, DHwS (e) and clusters C1 (f), C2 (g) and C3 (h). The inset in (e) shows a detail of the seismicity rate before Visso-Norcia mainshocks for on-fault, in grey, and DHwS in red. In (d–h) we selected earthquakes with M > 1.0 consistently with Mc Lilliefors (see Method).
