| Abstract | It is a widely shared opinion that not only secondary earthquakes (aftershocks) but also main earthquakes tend to occur in time-space clus-ters. The importance of this assumption requires the application of statis-tical tools to objectively evaluate its coherence with the reality at different scales of size-space-time. Global tests allow us to select the data sets with significant space-time clustering in order to perform more in-depth analy-ses to detect cluster locations. According to different fixed magnitude thresholds, we perform two global statistical tests, the Knox test and the Jacquez test, based on the space-time distance between pairs of earth-quakes under the null hypothesis of uniform distribution in time and space, and evaluate the significance of the possible clusters. We analyze subsets of historical Italian earthquakes drawn from the Parametric Catalog of Italian Earthquakes (CPTI04) with magnitude thresholds 4.5, 5.3 and 6.0, associated with the composite seismogenic sources of the |
