Temporal precursor characteristics

Minimum values are observed approximately 3–4 days prior to the rock burst event, followed by a steady and progressive increase until the event occurs

The highest recent peak appears 5–6 days before the rock burst event, whereas lower values appear 3–4 days before the event

The minimum value is noted 6–7 days prior to the rock burst event, and lower values appear 3–4 days prior

Higher values are observed 6–7 days prior to the rock burst event, and lower values appear 3–4 days prior
