Reduced seismic activity after mega-earthquakes

Y. Zhang, M. Elbaz, et al.

This groundbreaking research by Yongwen Zhang, Maor Elbaz, Shlomo Havlin, and Yosef Ashkenazy uncovers a surprising trend in post-mega-earthquake activity. They reveal that, beyond a significant distance from the epicenter, major earthquakes (magnitude 7.5 or higher) often lead to reduced seismic activity, challenging the conventional understanding of aftershocks.
