Variation of singularity of earthquake-size distribution with respect to tectonic regime
Frequency–size relation of earthquakes in a region can be approximated by the Gutenberg-Richter law (GR). This power-law model involves two parameters: a-value measuring seismic activity or earthquake productivity, and b-value describing the relation between frequencies of small and large earthquake...
