Abstract

This study analyzes and model zone-wise earthquakes inter-event recurrence interval IRIs using a stochastic Weibull probabilistic distribution model The study region between 19 28 N and 72 84 E up to 200 km peripheral boundaries of Central India Madhya Pradesh is divided into four zones Zone South West North and East respectively based on different clusters of earthquakes with shared seismo-tectonic regimes Seismic events catalog from different national and international resources for a period of more than 100 years are considered in this study The seismic data is grouped into two categories based on a different range of earthquake magnitudes 3 Mw 4 4 Mw 6 Zone-wise results are produced in the form of hazard curves and conditional probabilities of occurrence for a range of elapsed time from 3 to 30 years from last recorded earthquakes in various zones
