Visibility Graph Investigation of the Shallow Seismicity of Lai Chau Area (Vietnam) by Luciano Telesca, Anh Tuan Thai, Dinh Trong Cao, Thanh Hai Dang

“…Analyzing the variation of the seismological and topological parameters of the seismicity relative to the distance from the center of the Lai Chau reservoir revealed the following features: (1) the <i>b</i>-value fluctuates around a mean value of 1.21 at distances of up to 10–11 km, while, for distances larger than 25–30 km, it tends to the value of 0.86; (2) the maximum IMI between the monthly number of earthquakes and the monthly mean water level occurs at a distance of 9–11 km, showing a distance evolution similar to that of the <i>b</i>-value; (3) at these distances from the center of the reservoir, the time lag between the earthquake monthly counts and the monthly water level mean is 9–10 months; (4) the relationship between the <i>b</i>-value and the <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>k</mi><mo>−</mo><mi>M</mi></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> slope suggests that the <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>k</mi><mo>−</mo><mi>M</mi></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> slope depends on the number of earthquakes within a 22 km radius from the center of the dam. …”
