The relationship between stress changes and seismic activity, focusing on the concepts of dynamic triggering and volcano-seismic coupling. Dynamic triggering refers to the phenomenon where seismic waves emitted from a mainshock can trigger aftershocks during their passage. However, most aftershocks occur after the mainshock, and it is unclear what causes delayed aftershocks in distant regions. The document also discusses how normal faulting in the apennines can promote volcanic eruptions in the vesuvius magmatic system, and vice versa, through the concept of volcano-seismic coupling.
