利用sPn和Pn震相走时差计算的2014年2月28日石嘴山M_L4.4地震的震源深度为7.21±0.277km;分析不同震源深度下民勤台的理论波形与观测波形拟合结果,得到震源深度为7~8km。研究认为,石嘴山M_L4.4地震属于浅源地震,震源浅和沉积层较厚是此次地震震感较强的主要原因。另外,合理选取地震波形数据和震相识别方法,可有效提高s Pn震相测定震源深度的可靠性。为便于应用,本文还给出了宁夏地区地震震源分别位于上地壳和下地壳时sPn和Pn震相走时差与震源深度的对应关系表。  相似文献

Egypt is recognized as a moderate seismicity region where earthquakes are distributed within several active regions. Owing to sparse distribution of both seismicity and seismic stations, mostly moderate-size Egyptian earthquakes were recorded by regional stations. One of such cases is the moderate-size earthquakes of moment magnitudes greater than 4.0 which struck the Western Desert of Egypt in 1998 and 1999. These events are the first instrumentally recorded earthquakes occurring in the area. In the present study, the source mechanism for these earthquakes was estimated using the waveform data recorded from one of the very broadband MedNet seismograph stations and polarities from the national short-period seismographs. An iterative technique was applied to find the best-fit double-couple mechanism by a grid search over strike, dip and rake. Regional synthetic seismograms were calculated by using fk integration in the frequency range of 0.03–0.1 Hz. A crustal structure fitted to surface wave dispersion curves was used to compute Green’s function. Focal depths were determined through the grid search method for a range of source depths. Our results show a normal faulting mechanism with minor strike-slip component. The NNW trend has been chosen as a preferred rupture plane in consistence with surface and subsurface faults and microearthquake seismicity in the epicenteral area as well.  相似文献

在南北地震带地区,USGS全球地震目录中存在一些震源深度大于30km的地震.这些地震的震源深度是否可靠,对于研究这一地区的孕震机制、岩石圈强度和构造演化等科学问题具有重要意义.本文以南北地震带2012年发生的5个4~5级地震为例,利用区域地震台网的波形数据,基于sPL深度震相、短周期瑞利面波以及CAP等独立方法测定了其震源深度.结果表明:sPL深度震相和CAP方法给出的震源深度比较一致,差别小于2~3km,能够得到比较可靠的震源深度;短周期瑞利面波及其与P波振幅比也确定了地震震源深度较浅的特征.本文研究结果显示:宁夏会宁4.7级、云南富民4.8级和四川会东4.7级地震的震源深度约为8~12km左右,仍为发生于上地壳的地震,USGS地震目录给出的30km甚至更深的震源深度存在明显偏差;对于四川隆昌4.6和4.9级地震,本文给出的震源深度为1~2km,属于极浅源地震,USGS地震目录给出的10km和35km的震源深度结果尚需进一步改进.  相似文献

Source inversion of small-magnitude events such as aftershocks or mine collapses requires use of relatively high frequency seismic waveforms which are strongly affected by small-scale heterogeneities in the crust. In this study, we developed a new inversion method called gCAP3D for determining general moment tensor of a seismic source using Green's functions of 3D models. It inherits the advantageous features of the “Cut-and-Paste” (CAP) method to break a full seismogram into the Pnl and surface-wave segments and to allow time shift between observed and predicted waveforms. It uses grid search for 5 source parameters (relative strengths of the isotropic and compensated-linear-vector-dipole components and the strike, dip, and rake of the double-couple component) that minimize the waveform misfit. The scalar moment is estimated using the ratio of L2 norms of the data and synthetics. Focal depth can also be determined by repeating the inversion at different depths. We applied gCAP3D to the 2013 Ms 7.0 Lushan earthquake and its aftershocks using a 3D crustal-upper mantle velocity model derived from ambient noise tomography in the region. We first relocated the events using the double-difference method. We then used the finite-differences method and reciprocity principle to calculate Green's functions of the 3D model for 20 permanent broadband seismic stations within 200 km from the source region. We obtained moment tensors of the mainshock and 74 aftershocks ranging from Mw 5.2 to 3.4. The results show that the Lushan earthquake is a reverse faulting at a depth of 13–15 km on a plane dipping 40–47° to N46° W. Most of the aftershocks occurred off the main rupture plane and have similar focal mechanisms to the mainshock's, except in the proximity of the mainshock where the aftershocks' focal mechanisms display some variations.  相似文献

Short-period synthetic seismograms are computed to determine the relative amplitudes and arrival times of P, pP, pwP (water surface reflection), and sP phases. Except along nodal planes of upgoing p, pwP is of greater amplitude than sP. For central Aleutian earthquakes, pwP dominates over sP and pP at North American stations for thrust mechanisms and modelled crustal structures. The pwP phase is clearly identified in three Aleutian events and can be used to constrain focal depths. Complex fracturing processes are identified in two of the events. In simple events, smaller phases which are consistent from station to station can be identified as sub-surface reflections and used for modelling the structure of the forearc.  相似文献

This paper applies a new formulation to do moment tensor inversion for earthquakes in the Kushiro area of Japan. Comparing with conventional moment tensor inversion method, the new one takes the effect of source time function into consideration. For the inversion, best solution is obtained by minimizing the difference between the observed seismograms and the synthetic ones. And the best-fitting focal depth is determined from the variance reduction. The results indicate that half duration of source time function is proportional to the magnitude of earthquakes. Large earthquakes have long half duration, whereas that of moderate-small earthquakes is comparatively shorter. The focal mechanisms of all three earthquakes are of thrust fault type, which is mainly ascribed to the collision of the North American plate with the Eurasia plate in the late Cretaceous or Paleogene.  相似文献

We present an approach based on controlled source seismology (CSS) methods, especially developed for processing and modeling of the local earthquake seismograms. Record sections of the local earthquake seismograms generated for multiple source depths illuminate the upper crustal velocity structure in the region. Extensive travel times and synthetic seismograms modeling of the observed record sections reveal the P and S velocity structure in the region. The strength of this approach essentially lies with the possibility of validating the upper crustal velocity models inferred in various subregions of the seismogenic region. A redundant and significantly large number of virtual source local earthquake seismogram sections, gathered for multiple source depths and varying source mechanisms in each of the subregions, validate the same set of P and S velocity models in that region. Further, those models are found to generate the synthetic seismograms consistent with the observed sections. The proposed approach effectively utilizes a reliable dataset from a great volume of well-located local earthquake recordings of a state-of-the-art digital seismograph network. Such a dataset of local earthquake seismograms in the Koyna-Warna active earthquake zone is used here to demonstrate this approach and obtained subregion-specific models of upper crustal P and S velocity structure in the epicentral region. The results indicate that the technique presented here is efficient for processing and modeling the local earthquake seismograms and deriving upper crustal velocity models in the seismogenic regions.  相似文献

In this study we derive expressions for particle displacement or particle velocity anywhere inside a stratified earth and at its surface due to horizontal torque source located in the top layer. Equivalently, invoking Green's function reciprocity theorem, the solution applies also to the case of a surface or subsurface source when the resulting displacement or velocity is measured within the top layer. In order to evaluate the closed-form analytical solution economically and accurately it is advisable to introduce inelastic attenuation. Causal inelastic attenuation also lends the necessary realism to the computed seismic trace. To provide proof that the analytical solution is indeed correct and applicable to the multilayer case, a thick uniform overburden was assumed to consist of many thin layers. The correctness of the computed particle velocity response can be very simply verified by inspection. The computed response can also serve as a check on other less accurate methods of producing synthetic seismograms, such as the techniques of finite differences, finite elements, and various sophisticated ray-tracing techniques. It is not difficult to construct horizontal surface torque source. It appears that such source is well suited for seismic exploration in areas with a high-velocity surface layer. A realistic source function is analyzed in detail and normalized displacement response evaluated at different incidence angles in the near and the far fields. In an effort to distinguish the features of an SH torque seismogram from a pressure seismogram two models with identical layerings and layer parameters have been set up. As expected the torque seismogram is very different from the compressional seismogram. One desirable feature of a torque seismogram is the fast decay of multiples. Exact synthetic seismograms have many uses; some of them, such as the study of complex interference phenomena, phase change at wide angle reflection, channeling effects, dispersion (geometrical and material), absolute gain, and inelastic attenuation, can be carried out accurately and effortlessly. They can also be used to improve basic processing techniques such as deconvolution and velocity analysis. The numerical evaluation of the analytical solution of the wave equation as described in this paper has a long history. Most of the work leading to this paper was carried out by one of us (M. J. K.) in the years 1957 to 1968 at the Geophysical Research Corporation. However, the full testing of the various computer codes was carried out only very recently at the Phillips Petroleum Company.  相似文献

震中距在50°左右的深源远震,直达波S波震相波列可以与其他震相波列分离. 在层状介质中,本文通过传播矩阵方法得到由S波从台下底层输入获得地面理论地震图的新方法,并由此拟合了河北省两个地震台短周期S波记录,获得台站下方横波速度结构. 结果表明,红山台下13km和24km左右有S波低速层存在,地壳厚度为33.km;涉县台下18km和30km左右有S波低速层存在. 红山台下S波差异显著的2个低速层夹持的高速层、较薄地壳及上地幔顶部低S波速度结构,与166年邢台大地震有关. 考虑到S波速度对部分熔融体的敏感性,认为地壳S波速度结构可作为揭示强震深部背景的依据之一.  相似文献

Focal mechanism parameters of some significant earthquakes from southern Turkey have been estimated using either the body waveforms or the first motions of P-waves. It is observed that fault plane solutions derived from first motions may not be well constrained and may often be in error because of poor signal-to-noise ratios at some stations, poorly distributed recording stations in azimuth, lack of recognition of the reversed polarities at some stations, and positions of stations in terms of the crustal velocity structure, focal depth and, hence, take-off angles in the source area. The use of the inversion method introduces a considerable improvement in the focal parameters estimated in previous studies that have been used to construct seismotectonic models in the study area. The focal depths inferred from the inversion of body waveforms for the earthquakes occurring in southwestern Turkey are compatible with those reported by the ISC bulletins and other previous studies while the focal depths of earthquakes from the Antalya Bay are found to be less than those given by different agencies. Waveform inversion of earthquakes that have occurred in and around the Antalya Bay implies a low velocity layer showing azimuthal dependence. Hence, depth of rupture and lateral extent of velocity structure are of importance in the investigation of earthquake faulting process in this area. The source time duration of shallow earthquakes is generally longer than that for the deep focus earthquakes from the Antalya Bay and the Rhodes area. The events with relatively short and simple time functions may be interpreted as low stress drop events relative to the crustal ones.  相似文献

— We apply the reciprocity method (Eisner and Clayton, 2001a) to compare the full waveform synthetic seismograms with a large number of observed seismograms. The reciprocity method used in the finite-difference modeling allows for the use of high quality data observed from the earthquakes distributed over the wide range of azimuths and depths. We have developed a methodology to facilitate the comparison between data and synthetics using a set of attributes to characterize the seismograms. These attributes are maximum amplitude, time delay and coda decay of the magnitude of the displacement vector. For the Southern California Velocity Model, Version 1 (Magistrale et al., 1996), we have found misfits between data and synthetics for paths traveling outside of the sedimentary basins and the western part of the Los Angeles and San Fernando basins.  相似文献

Summary The inversion of high-frequency seismograms is performed to retrieve source mechanisms, hypocentral depths and source time functions of two weak Vrancea earthquakes (ML=3.3), one that occurred in the crust, the other in the lithospheric part of the mantle. The digital waveforms recorded by the local Romanian network are used. Synthetic seismograms are computed by the modal summation method, using the point source approximation, for horizontally layered anelastic media. For each source-to-station path a different structural model is adopted which represents the best 1-D approximation of the medium in this azimuth. Thus, lateral inhomogeneities are taken into account in a simplified way. The source is described by the full moment tensor, allowing both deviatoric and volumetric components to be resolved.Although the structural models are simplified for the range of epicentral distances (15<<<170 km) considered, we find that the fit between the synthetic and observed seismograms is satisfactory for frequencies less than a few Hz. The few P-wave polarities available are not sufficient to determine a reliable source mechanism by standard methods, while the waveform inversion allows us to retrieve source mechanisms that are stable with respect to different boundary conditions and in good agreement with the observed polarities. The source time function is the less stable inverted parameter, being the most influenced by the simplification of the structural models.  相似文献

Synthetic seismograms generated by solving the seismic wave equation using numerical methods are being widely used in seismology. For fully three-dimensional seismic structure models, the generation of these synthetic seismograms may require large amount of computing resources. Conventional high-performance computer clusters may not provide a cost-effective solution to this type of applications. The newly emerging cloud-computing platform provides an alternative solution. In this paper, we describe our implementation of a synthetic seismogram generator based on the reciprocity principle using the Windows Azure cloud application framework. Our preliminary experiment shows that our cloud-based synthetic seismogram generator provides a cost-effective and numerically efficient approach for computing synthetic seismograms based on the reciprocity principle.  相似文献

A feasibility study of an earthquake early warning (EEW) system was conducted for the Eastern Caribbean region using scenario earthquakes, corresponding to the maximum credible earthquakes and to the earthquakes associated with a return period of 475 years. Broadband synthetic seismograms were produced at selected critical facilities, where there is potential interest in the installation of an EEW system. The expected damage was derived from the synthetic seismograms and compared with the lead-time determined for both a regional and on-site EEW configuration. Next, the Virtual Seismologist EEW algorithm, as included in SeisComP3, was tested. Additional broadband synthetic seismograms were produced for the stations in the Eastern Caribbean seismic networks in order to simulate the real time behaviour of the seismic networks during the occurrence of the synthetic earthquakes and to assess the predictive capacity of the selected ground motion prediction equation. Expected peak ground parameters and lead-times at the critical facilities constitute the major outcome of the study.  相似文献

—?The ASPO method (Amplitude Spectra and POlarities) for the focal-mechanism retrieval from relatively weak events is based on a widely available instrumental setup: A few broadband stations within a denser short-period network. Collectively all stations provide the epicenter location. Complete records are taken from three-component broadband stations, without selecting a particular wave type, or picking amplitudes. It makes the method suitable for automated data processing, and enables studies of the interference crustal phases. Only the amplitude spectra are inverted. This is a robust feature which makes the method insensitive to any timing problems (such as those due to uncertain origin time, or due to technical failures). The first-motion polarities serve as an additional constraint of the amplitude-spectra inversion; only few (clear) polarities are taken from the nearest stations, wher e they mostly belong to direct P waves. The method seeks five parameters: The focal depth, scalar moment, strike, dip, and rake. Green's function, automatically including possible near-field effects and interference (e.g., surface) waves, is calculated by the discrete wavenumber method. ASPO works below the corner frequency, and the time function is not being retrieved. This feature not only minimizes the number of the inverted parameters, but also speeds up the calculation, because the lower the frequency, the faster the discrete wavenumber run. Instead of an exceedingly slow 5-parameter grid search, the inversion is organized in two steps: (i) the depth and moment determination with a coarse grid search of the strike, dip and rake, and (ii) a fine grid search of the three source angles. Uncertainty of the best-fitting solution is assessed from the minimum error value and from the scatter of the nodal lines (and/or P and T axes) between min and min?+?10%. The method was tested on the clustered M?≈?3.5 earthquakes recorded by a temporary network of three CMG3-T broadband stations in western Corinth Gulf. A fundamental problem is that the broadband stations suffer systematically from event-induced instabilities at horizontal components if earthquakes of the studied magnitudes occur at short distances, 10–30?km. Therefore, the ASPO method could not be applied below 0.1?Hz. As such, the results are sensitive with respect to unknown crustal structure details, and the focal mechanisms remain rather uncertain (minimum error higher than 0.34). Compared to synthetic tests with perturbed data, in which the error is lower than 0.2, it is concluded that the crustal model needs further improvement.  相似文献
