  1. 1. Physics of Aftershocks in the South Iceland Seismic Zone : Insights into the earthquake process from statistics and numerical modelling of aftershock sequences

    Author : Mattias Lindman; Roland Roberts; Björn Lund; David Marsan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earthquake processes; Aftershocks; Physics of aftershocks; Omori law; Postseismic processes; Pore pressure diffusion; Poroelasticity; Statistical seismology; Self-organised criticality; Interevent time distributions; Waiting time distributions; Geophysics; Geofysik;
