Non-extensive analysis of seismicity: application to some seismic sequences of Morocco
Abstract
The magnitude distribution of three seismic sequences occurred in Morocco were investigated by means of the Tsallis-based non-extensive analysis. The non-extensive parameters were estimated by means of the Levenberg-Marquadt nonlinear least square fitting method. It was found that the q value could be a good indicator of the complexity of seismic phenomena. Such findings could contribute in better understanding the dynamics of seismicity and suggesting a unifying view of earthquake occurrence.
