Plot of M c as a function of relative time to the M7.3 quake (vertical solid line) since the M6.5 quake (red) and since the M6.4 quake (blue) in which a 200-event window was used. Uncertainty was according to the bootstrapping (Schorlemmer et al. 2003, 2004). Also included in this figure is a M–time diagram. Vertical dashed lines indicate the relative times, 0.98 and 0.67 days, to the M7.3 quake. Red stars M6-class quakes (M6.5, M6.4), yellow star M7.3 quake
