The Radiated Seismic Energy and Apparent Stress of Interplate and Intraslab Earthquakes at Subduction Zone Environments: Implications for Seismic Hazard Estimation

Open-File Report 01-0005

 

Figure 2b. ES-M0 for 12 shallow-focus thrust-faulting earthquakes that occurred between 1988 to 1994 along the Chile trench. The characteristic apparent stress for this seismic region is centered narrowly about 3.3 bars.
