The Influence of Lithology and Fault Source Volume on the Magnitude–Frequency‐Distribution of Earthquakes

Abstract The earthquake Magnitude‐Frequency‐Distribution is usually modeled with the Gutenberg‐Richter law, where the b‐value controls the relative rate of small and large earthquakes. b‐value shows an inverse dependence on differential stress, it increases with fault roughness and in areas with flu...
