Zusammenfassung |
This investigation has applied a recent methodology to identify seismic
quiescence and seismic acceleration, prior to the occurrence of the 13 December 2008, Ms=5.7 earthquake in Central Greece. Anomalous seismic
quiescence is observed around the epicentral area almost twelve years prior
to the main shock and it lasted for a period of about four and a half years.
After this period an acceleration in seismic activity began and lasted until
the main shock. Modeling this seismic sequence with the time-to-failure
equation and with a fixed value of the exponent "m" equal to 0.32, shows a
successful estimation of the occurrence time of the main event within a few
days. The physical meaning of this particular choice of the "m" value is
discussed. |
