Abstract:In recent decades, phenomenological methods known as Recognition of Earthquake-Prone Areas (REPA) were set up for identifying potential sites of powerful earthquakes. The information on potential earthquake sources provided by the REPA method is an essential part of seismic hazard assessment methodology. For the first time, we have combined global-scale information on the geographic occurrence of geofluids with global-scale information on earthquake occurrence, heat flow distribution, and S-wave dispersion, to… Show more
