SPATIO-TEMPORAL PATTERN OF SEISMICITY AROUNDTHE KAZERUN FAULT SYSTEM (KFS), SOUTHERN IRAN

In this research, the spatio-temporal analysis of earthquakes that occurred around the Kazerun FaultSystem (KFS), during the period of the beginning of ۲۰۰۶ to the end of Nov. ۲۰۲۳, was carried out.For this purpose, the statistical distribution of the Inter-event (or waiting) time, migrating distance, anddirectional trend of migration of successive events were studied using different lower magnitudethresholds. It is observed that the inter-event time distribution of earthquakes can be quite well fittedby the Gamma distribution model. The results obtained also indicate a meaningful correlation betweenthe directional pattern of the migrating trends of successive events and the dominant trend of the KFS.The results of this study can help us to better understand the temporal-spatial pattern of seismicityaround this seismically active fault system.
