Forecasting seismicity rate in the north-west Himalaya using rate and state dependent friction law

Forecasting seismicity rate in the north-west Himalaya using rate and state dependent friction law

In this study, rate and state Coulomb stress transfer model is adopted to forecast the seismicity rate of earthquakes (MW ≥ 5) in the north-west Himalaya region within the testing period 2011–2013. Coulomb stress changes (ΔCFF), considered to be the most critical parameter in the model, exhibit stre...
