Abstract
Abstract
The occurrence regularity and propagation mechanism of seismic activity are complicated and variable to be described by existing models. This paper presents a multifractal analysis of the Alpine–Himalayan seismic zone in time–space series. The multifractal spectrum of energy released from the seismic zone is obtained from different angles. Results show that earthquakes in the seismic zone possess complex multifractal characteristics in time–space series. Moreover, the clustering feature of the seismic activity intensity in the seismic zone is similar among the time–space series.
