Highlighting entropy as a measure of uncertainty and system organisation, variations between two and three dimensions of significant characteristics of spatio-temporal patterns of registered seismic events are explored. After a preliminary descriptive analysis, simulations and randomisations are performed to validate the observed effects. The study proposes future directions, such as the consideration of non-linear distance measures and the inclusion of released energy in the entropy calculation, to contribute to the understanding of the spatial complexity of seismic phenomena and provide a solid basis for future research in this critical area.}, organization = {Universidad de Granada/CBUA}, organization = {MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 PID2021-128077NB-I00, CEX2020-001105-M}, organization = {ERDF A way of making Europe, EU}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, keywords = {Complexity}, keywords = {Entropy}, keywords = {Spatio-temporal seismic data}, keywords = {Structural effects}, keywords = {Three-dimensional patterns}, title = {Entropy-based assessment of complexity structural effects of the third dimension, case seismic nest of Los Santos (Colombia)}, doi = {10.1007/s00477-024-02890-1}, author = {Mantilla-Duarte, Carlos Alfonso and Angulo Ibáñez, José Miguel}, }
