This study reports fractal analysis of one-year radon in groundwater disturbances from five stations in China amid the catastrophic Wenchuan (Mw=7.9) earthquake of May 12, 2008 (day 133). Five techniques are used (DFA, fractal dimensions with Higuchi, Katz, Sevcik methods, power-law analysis) in segmented portions glided throughout each signal. Noteworthy fractal areas are outlined in the KDS, GS, MSS station data, while the portions were non-significant for PZHS and SPS. Up to day 133 critical epoch DFA-exponents have 1.5<=a<2.0 with several above 1.8. Fractal dimensions exhibit Katz’s D around 1.0-1.2, Higuchi’s D between 1.5-2.0 and Sevcik’s D between 1.0-1.5. Several power-law exponents are above 1.7 and numerous above 2.0. All fractal results of KDS-GS-MSS stations are further analysed using a novel computerised methodology which locates the exact out-of-threshold fractal areas and combines the outcomes of different methods per five, four, three, and two (maximum 13 combinations) versus nineteen Mw<=5.5 earthquakes of the area. Most different-technique coincidences are before the great Wenchuan earthquake and its post-earthquakes. This is not only with one method, but with 13 different methods. Other interpretations are also discussed.

The overall seismicity of Pakistan from 24 B.C to 2020 is analysed in terms of its multifractal behaviour. Seismic events of magnitude ML=3.0 and above are spatially clustered into four distinct groups, each one corresponding to a different region of high seismic activity. The Multifractal Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (MFDA) method applied on each cluster reveals pronounced inter-cluster heterogeneity in terms of the resulting generalised Hurst exponent and fractality spectrum, possibly due to the particular tectonic characteristics of the regions under investigation. Additional results on the variability of the Gutenberg–Richter b‐value across the defined clusters further corroborate the uniqueness of the seismic profile of each region.
