The geomagnetic data collected at the Memambetsu and Kakioka observatories, on the interval 01 August 2010-31May 2011, have been retrospectively analyzed to confirm the relationship between the pre-seismic anomalous behavior of the electromagnetic parameters (normalized function Bzn and Rn) and M9 Great Tohoku earthquake on March 11, 2011. The dail...

... that could exist in the active faults zones. In this case, the negative peak observed on 5-6 February in Bzn* distribution, carried out at PS observatory that is placed at the western limit of the EURASIA Plate, is the most probably the pre-seismic electromagnetic effect generated by the M9 earthquake at eastward limit of the EURASIA Plate, as in Fig. ...

Earthquake source parameters and crustal Q are being estimated simultaneously through the inversion of S-wave displacement spectra from three-component recordings of ten local cratonic intraplate earthquakes from 3-6 broadband stations in the eastern Indian shield, wherein, an iterative Levenberg-Marquardt inversion technique is used. The estimated...
