✦ Synopsis
A technique based on the v-value, which is defined by (T-)2/'g 2, where ~ is the time interval between two adjacent earthquakes and indicates the pattern of time sequences of earthquakes, has been applied to the 25 March 1986 Aegean Sea (Greece) earthquake (M L = 5.2) in an attempt to discover temporal changes in seismicity. The analysis of several earthquake sequences revealed that low v-values preceded the occurrence of relatively large earthquakes. The v-value technique may be used for monitoring the seismicity changes.
