Abstract

Short-term seismic activity in Vrancea is analyzed by means of the inter-event magnitude distributions (distributions of the next seismic event following a conditional seismic event). This seismic activity in Vrancea is fitted by Omori-type time-power laws, with possible correlations over a range of 20−25 days, for magnitudes M < 4−5. Such temporal patterns can be employed in seismic hazard and risk estimation, providing the data set is statistically significant.
