LARGE earthquake proximity indicated by seismic moment efficiency and frequency-number distribution of small earthquakes

Abstract The size distribution of minor earthquakes, characterized by a power-law decay (b-value), sometimes indicates the hazard information of major earthquakes. Studies show that the b-value reflects the stress level and proximity of the fault failure condition. However, the mechanisms are diffic...
