The Vrancea Seismic Cycle Revisited: A Double-Percolation Framework and Vertical Stress Resetting at Intermediate Depths
Andrei, Dumitru N. (2026), The Vrancea Seismic Cycle Revisited: A Double-Percolation Framework and Vertical Stress Resetting at Intermediate Depths, Cunoașterea Științifică, 5:2, 21-27, DOI: 10.58679/CS64085, https://www.cunoasterea.ro/en/the-vrancea-seismic-cycle-revisited/ Abstract The Vrancea seismic zone represents a unique case of concentrated intermediate-depth seismicity in Europe, characterized by recurrent large earthquakes occurring within a narrow subcrustal volume between approximately 70 and 180 km depth. Observational studies indicate that seismic activity is confined to a small, nearly vertical seismogenic body, commonly interpreted as a remnant … Citeşte mai mult
