The characteristics of the b-value anomalies preceding the 2004 Mw9.0 Sumatra earthquake

For earthquakes (M ≥ 4.9) that occurred in the region limited by latitudes 2°S–16°N and longitudes 90°E–101°E from 1 January 1973 to 25 December 2004, we investigated temporal variations of the b value in the aftershock zone to determine its abnormal characteristics prior to the 2004 Mw9.0 Sumatra e...
