abstract: Great effort has been exerted for the investigation of the seismicity parameters
distribution, especially regarding magnitude and interevent time between consecutive
earthquakes. An approach combining a parametric and a non-parametric methodology
are tested for the instrumental seismicity, in two of the most active extensional fault
zones in Greece (Corinth gulf and Mygdonia basin) that accommodate intense
seismicity with devastating events. The non-parametric approach refers to the
"smoothed bootstrap test for modality and bump-hunt test" for unveiling possible
complex distribution characteristics. The input data regard complete and declustered
seismicity catalogs (M≥MC) for the time interval: August 2008 - October 2014. The
test is based upon setting the null hypotheses that the distributions of interevent time
and magnitude are unimodal. A multimodal distribution is evidenced in most cases
where clustering of earthquakes is dominant. When multimodality is identified, the
next target is to define the exact locations of modes and bumps. The results are
interpreted in terms of the seismotectonic properties of the fault populations in each
area and earthquake clustering.
