Title: | Can earthquake size be controlled by the initial seconds of rupture? | Issue Date: | 2007 | ISBN: | 978-3-540-72240-3 | Keywords: | early warning fracture energy |
Subject Classification: | 04. Solid Earth::04.06. Seismology::04.06.03. Earthquake source and dynamics | Abstract: | It has been argued that the dominant period T_p derived from the initial seconds of a seismogram, hence only depending on the initial phases of earthquake rupture, seems to scale with the final size of the earthquake. We provide a physical interpretation for the observed scaling and explain how the final earthquake size could be controlled by the initial phase of rupture. |
