An earthquake with a local magnitude (ML) of 5.8 occurred on 12 September 2016 near Gyeongju, South Korea. This earthquake was the largest event on record in Korea since 1978. A relatively large (ML 5.1) foreshock preceded the main shock by about 50 min, and numerous aftershocks followed. In this study, we performed seismological and geodetic analyses to determine the possibility of the occurrence...
This study evaluated the performance of the seismograph network in the southern Korean Peninsula. The average distance between stations in this network is about 25 km. According to the Gutenberg-Richter recurrence relation, the seismograph network appears to have recorded all earthquakes larger than M≈ 2.1−2.2 that occurred in the 9-year interval from 2001 to 2009. Values of a and b were estimated...
