Seasonal modulation of oceanic seismicity in the azores by Ana L. Lordi, Ana L. Lordi, Maria C. Neves, Maria C. Neves, Susana Custódio, Susana Custódio, Stéphanie Dumont, Stéphanie Dumont

“…The analysis shows that the seasonal modulation is particularly observed near the Triple Junction region between the Faial Island and the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. To identify possible mechanisms driving the seasonal modulation, we apply Singular Spectral Analysis to the seismicity rate and to time-series of plausible external triggers, in order to investigate possible common periodicities. …”
