Firstly, through detailed data analysis and literature review, it is revealed how the seasonal significant rainfall and temperature changes in the plateau establish potential links with key parameters such as the frequency and intensity of seismic activity. This process deeply analyzes how natural conditions such as extreme rainfall and temperature changes directly or indirectly affect the mechanism of earthquake preparation and triggering, which may promote or inhibit the occurrence of seismic activity. The close relationship between cold and dry seasons and seismic activity is emphasized, and the unique influence of these special climatic conditions on seismic activity patterns is discussed. In addition, the regional distribution characteristics of seismic activity in the plateau area are also analyzed, including key data such as annual occurrence number and magnitude distribution, which provides strong data support for formulating regional earthquake disaster response strategies. In addition, the characteristics of various secondary disasters that may be caused by earthquakes, such as landslides, debris flows, barrier lakes, etc., are analyzed, which deepens the understanding of the complexity of the earthquake disaster chain.

Based on the fault mechanics principles, a formula was derived to estimate the length of open and wing-shaped rupture at the hypocenter under the influence of pore or excess pore water pressure. The results reveal that reservoir-induced seismicity demonstrates short-term cycles characterized by alternating \"active periods\" and \"quiet periods,\" as well as long-term cycles with the combined periods. The probability of earthquakes occurring within one year ​at the epicentre is relatively high and decreases after four years.

However, it is still not clear which model plays the most important role in driving foreshocks and mainshock nucleation for given cases. In this study, we focus on the relationship between an intensive earthquake swarm that started beneath the Noto Peninsula in Central Japan since November 2020 and the nucleation of the 2024 <em>M</em> 7.6 Noto Hanto earthquake. We relocate earthquakes listed in the standard Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) catalog since 2018 with the double-different relocation method. Relocated seismicity revealed that the 2024 <em>M</em> 7.6 mainshock likely ruptured a thrust fault above a parallel fault where the <em>M</em> 6.5 Suzu earthquake occurred in May 2023. We find possible along-strike and along-dip expansion of seismicity in the first few months at the beginning of the swarm sequence, while no obvious migration pattern in the last few days before the <em>M</em> 7.6 mainshock was observed. Several smaller events occurred in between the <em>M</em> 5.5 and <em>M</em> 4.6 foreshocks that occurred about 4 min and 2 ​min before the M7.6 mainshock. The Coulomb stress changes from the <em>M</em> 5.5 foreshock were negative at the hypocenter of the <em>M</em> 7.6 mainshock, which is inconsistent with a simple cascade triggering model. Moreover, an <em>M</em> 5.9 foreshock was identified in the JMA catalog 14 ​s before the mainshock. Results from back-projection of high-frequency teleseismic P waves show a prolonged initial rupture process near the mainshock hypocenter lasting for ∼25 ​s, before propagating bi-laterally outward. Our results suggest a complex evolution process linking the earthquake swarm to the nucleation of the <em>M</em> 7.6 mainshock at a region of complex structures associated with the bend of a mapped large-scale reverse fault. A combination of fluid migration, aseismic slip and elastic stress triggering likely work in concert to drive both the prolonged earthquake swarm and the nucleation of the M7.6 mainshock.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100384,"journal":{"name":"Earthquake Research Advances","volume":"5 1","pages":"Article 100332"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143135629","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we employed ascending and descending orbit Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data and utilized differential interferometry (InSAR) technique to obtain the co-seismic deformation field of this event. The line-of-sight deformation field revealed that the main deformation caused by this earthquake was predominantly uplift, with maximum uplift values of approximately 38.8 ​cm and 46.1 ​cm for the ascending and descending orbits, respectively. By integrating the three-dimensional GNSS co-seismic deformation field, we identified the seismogenic fault located in the offshore thrust zone east of Hualien, trending towards the northwest. The fault geometry parameters, obtained through the inversion of an elastic half-space homogeneous model, indicated an optimal fault strike of 196°, a dip angle of 30.9°, and an average strike-slip of 0.4 ​m and dip-slip of −2.6 ​m. This suggests that the predominant motion along the seismogenic fault is thrusting. The distribution of post-seismic Coulomb stress changes revealed that aftershocks mainly occurred in stress-loaded regions.
