3-D images of P velocity and P - to S -velocity ratio have been produced for the upper crust of the Friuli area (northeastern Italy) using local earthquake tomography. The data consist of 2565 P and 930 S arrival times of high quality. The best-fitting V P and V P / V S 1-D models were computed before the 3-D inversion. V P was measured on two rock samples representative of the investigated upper layers of the Friuli crust. The tomographic V P model was used for modelling the gravity anomalies, by converting the velocity values into densities along three vertical cross-sections. The computed gravity anomalies were optimized with respect to the observed gravity anomalies. The crust investigated is characterized by sharp lateral and deep V P and V P / V S anomalies that are associated with the complex geological structure. High V P / V S values are associated with highly fractured zones related to the main faulting pattern. The relocated seismicity is generally associated with sharp variations in the V P / V S anomalies. The V P images show a high-velocity body below 6 km depth in the central part of the Friuli area, marked also by strong V P / V S heterogeneities, and this is interpreted as a tectonic wedge. Comparison with the distribution of earthquakes supports the hypothesis that the tectonic wedge controls most of the seismicity and can be considered to be the main seismogenic zone in the Friuli area. 相似文献

Summary. Using nine IDA records for the Indonesian earthquake of 1977 August 19, we have formed an optimal linear combination of the records and have measured the frequency and Q of 0 S 0 and 1 S 0 . The frequency was measured using the moment ratio method. The attenuation was measured by the minimum width method and by the time-lapse method. The frequency and attenuation were measured simultaneously by varying them to obtain a best fit to the data. A 2000-hr stack, the sum of nine individual records, for 0 S 0 gave a frequency of 0.814664 mHz±4 ppm. The values for the Q of 0 S 0 for the three different methods of measurement were 5600,5833 and 5700, respectively. The error in the estimates of Q -1 is about 5 per cent for the minimum power method. For 1 S 0 a 300-hr stack yielded a frequency of 1.63151 mHz±30 ppm. The values of Q for this mode were 1960, 1800 and 1850, respectively, with an error in Q -1 of about 12 per cent for the minimum power method. 相似文献

Summary. The statistical capability of the m b : M s discriminant for the discrimination of earthquake and explosion populations is examined by application of discriminant functions to a group of 83 explosions and 72 earthquakes in Eurasia. Equations are derived for the probability that an event is an earthquake or an explosion. The positive sign of DIS in the decision index equation, DIS i = 34.3383 – 11.9569 mb t + 7.1161 M si , indicates that the event i is an earthquake. Its negative sign indicates that event i is an explosion. The probability of correct classification for an event, P i , is related to its DIS i value, by P i = [1-exp (DIS i )]−1 , where a large, positive DIS indicates a high probability that an event is an earthquake and a large, negative DIS indicates a high probability that an event is an explosion. The discrimination line M s = 1.680 m b – 4.825, or m b = 0.595 M s + 2.872 very successfully separates the explosion population from the earthquake population. The points on this line have an equal chance of being an earthquake or an explosion; moreover, for any event, the distance parallel to the M s -axis from the point representing that event in the m b : M s plane to this line is a measure of the probability for the correct classification of that event. 相似文献

We explore a practical approach to earthquake early warning in southern California by determining a ground-motion period parameter τ c and a high-pass filtered displacement amplitude parameter Pd from the initial 3 s of the P waveforms recorded at the Southern California Seismic Network stations for earthquakes with M > 4.0. At a given site, we estimate the magnitude of an event from τ c and the peak ground-motion velocity ( PGV ) from Pd . The incoming three-component signals are recursively converted to ground acceleration, velocity and displacement. The displacements are recursively filtered with a one-way Butterworth high-pass filter with a cut-off frequency of 0.075 Hz, and a P -wave trigger is constantly monitored. When a trigger occurs, τ c and Pd are computed. We found the relationship between τ c and magnitude ( M ) for southern California, and between Pd and PGV for both southern California and Taiwan. These two relationships can be used to detect the occurrence of a major earthquake and provide onsite warning in the area around the station where onset of strong ground motion is expected within seconds after the arrival of the P wave. When the station density is high, the methods can be applied to multistation data to increase the robustness of onsite early warning and to add the regional warning approach. In an ideal situation, such warnings would be available within 10 s of the origin time of a large earthquake whose subsequent ground motion may last for tens of seconds. 相似文献

Summary. Records of 21 earthquakes with ray paths crossing south-eastern China have been examined to establish the nature of propagation of the seismic wave Sn . Sn is seen at stations within 1500km of earthquakes, but not beyond 1500km. No single localized region of attenuation can account for all the missing or weak Sn waves. The inefficient propagation of Sn through south-eastern China is surprising in light of efficient Sn propagation in other continental platforms which, like south-eastern China, appear to have been stable throughout the Cenozoic. 相似文献

A splined ILS/IPMS data set (1900–1973) from the most homogeneous values available has been analysed by the maximum entropy method of Burg. Principal conclusions are: (1) the spectral character of the Chandler wobble is a single broad peak, (2) the period is 432·95 ± 1·02 mean solar days and, (3) the Q w is 36±10. Measurements indicate that Q w is non- stationary in time. 相似文献

Summary. Earlier interpretations of P n travel-times from the extensive quarry-blast observation scheme in western Germany — now supplemented by explosion data from the 1972 Rhinegraben experiment — have been checked and enhanced using the new MOZAIC time-term method. The large data set (762 travel times) continues to require a considerable anisotropy of upper-mantle P velocity. The resulting estimates of the overall velocity variation — probably 0.50–0.60 km/s about a mean value of 8.05 km/s, that is, 6 to 7 per cent anisotropy — and of the direction of the maximum velocity (close to 20° E of north) are reasonably reliable. However, the detailed form of the anisotropy is obscured by various limitations of the data.
These results allow a realistic assessment of the resolving power of refraction-based studies of velocity anisotropy in the lithosphere. It is concluded that though such studies are probably adequate if the measurement of in situ anisotropy is required within the context of a generalized discussion of lithospheric dynamics they are not appropriate if a detailed specification of the anisotropy is desired. 相似文献
