The 2011 West Bohemia (Central Europe) earthquake swarm compared with the previous swarms of 2000 and 2008
Original language description
This paper presents the basic characteristics of the 2011 West Bohemia/Vogtland earthquake swarm and compares it with the swarms in 2000 and 2008. All these swarms occurred in the NovA1/2 Kostel focal zone. Up to 25,000 M (L) a parts per thousand currency sign3.7 events with depths between 6 and 10 km were detected in the 2011 swarm. Utilizing WEBNET data, we analysed the cumulative seismic moment, magnitude-frequency and interevent time distributions, space-time distribution of foci and typical focal mechanisms. For this purpose, we improved the formula for estimating the local magnitude M (L) used by WEBNET. The 2011 swarm exhibited much higher rapidity than the swarms of 2000 and 2008. The magnitude-frequency distributions of all the three swarms are similar, having the b-value close to 1.0. However, the events of higher magnitudes, roughly M (L) similar to 3.0+, depart markedly from the general trend of the weaker events.
