- Abstract:
-
Using the method of the inferred magnitude of the largest aftershock,and different methods of calculating the minimum magnitude of completeness(MC)and b-value,we estimate the magnitude of the largest aftershocks of 21 MS≥6.0 earthquake sequences in the North-South Seismic Belt from 2000 to 2020,and verify the results.We find that generally,the method of the inferred magnitude can help to accurately estimate the magnitude of the largest aftershock.The estimation error gradually decreases and tends to be unvariant along with time.When we mix the goodness of fit test(GFT)with the modified maximum curvature method(MAXC)to calculate the minimum magnitude of completeness,and use the maximum likelihood method to calculate b-value,the estimation error of the magnitude of the largest aftershock is very small and there are more correct results.
