✦ Synopsis


We investigated by fractal tools the temporal patterns of 1996-1999 seismicity of the Umbria-Marche region, central Italy, that was struck by a strong event ðM S ¼ 5:9Þ on September 26, 1997. Clustering behaviour has been evidenced by using different fractal tools, Fano factor analysis, Allan factor analysis and detrended fluctuation analysis, that show power-law shaped statistics, whose scaling exponents describe the degree of clusterization in the earthquake sequence. Furthermore, the scaling exponents evolve in time showing an increase of the clustering features in correspondence to larger events.

The Umbria-Marche region (central Italy) is one of the most seismically active area of Italian Peninsula, and recently it was characterized by the intense earthquake (M ¼ 5:9) occurred on September 26, 1997. We analyzed the time-scaling properties of the seismicity of the area during the 1997-1998 s
