Assessing the Quality of Earthquake Catalogues: Estimating the Magnitude of Completeness and Its Uncertainty

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce a new method to determine the magnitude of complete-ness Mc and its uncertainty and compare the EMR method with three existing techniques, finding that EMR shows a superior performance when applied to synthetic test cases or real data from regional and global earthquake catalogues.

Earthquake Monitoring in Southern California for Seventy-Seven Years (1932-2008)

TL;DR: The Southern California Seismic Network (SCSN) has produced the SCSN earthquake catalog from 1932 to the present, a period of more than 77 yrs as mentioned in this paper, consisting of phase picks, hypocenters, and magnitudes.

Estimating the magnitude of completeness for earthquake catalogs

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe peer-reviewed techniques to estimate and map the lowest magnitude at which all the earthquakes in a space-time volume are detected, and provide examples with real and synthetic earthquake catalogs to illustrate features of various methods and give the pros and cons of each method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of pore-pressure on the event-size distribution of induced earthquakes

TL;DR: In this article, the pore-pressure can be linked to the seismic frequency-magnitude distribution, described by its slope, theb-value, which leads to an increase of the probability of a large magnitude event with distance and time.
