Axial Seamount: Periodic tidal loading reveals stress dependence of the earthquake size distribution (b value)
Y. J. Tan, F. Waldhauser, M. Tolstoy +1
Earthquake size-frequency distributions commonly follow a power law, with the b value often used to quantify the relative proportion of small and large events. Laboratory experimen…
