Preliminary results of analysis of aftershock sequences of the Baikal rift zone
The preliminary results of analysis of aftershock sequences of the Baikal rift zone are given in the paper. Aftershocks of the earthquakes with energy class K≥12.5 (magnitude М~4.7) have been considered. The results show that such characteristics as duration of the sequences, aftershocks number, size and geometry of the epicenter fields and the coefficient γ in the recurrence plot, depend not only on the magnitude of the main shock but also on seismotectonic setting and state of the crust volume, namely consolidated or fractured ones.
