本文用所推导出的表示地震时间序列特征的W参数,对1966年邢台6.8(Ms)地震和1975年海城7.3(Ms)地震序列资料的处理得到:在W—t图中,当W值接近或低于中误差σ时,即很可能有强余震发生;而当W值低于平均水平时可认为是强余震前兆信息的开始.W—t曲线与强余震对应结果较好,邢台强余震对应结果鉴定评分R=0.659,海城强余震的对应结果鉴定评分R=0.501,表明预测效果是比较显著的. 相似文献

单个的宽频带地震图可观测到远距离大地震的近场震相。甚至在距离为20°～30°时,这样的震相仍有十分之几毫米的振幅。尽管以前的研究曾在垂向分量中作过识别,但这种近场震相在横向分量中可更容易地观测到。虽然观测效应与采用点矩张量源的全波计算吻合较好,但仍不能满足在地震资料分析中通常所做的某些假设。因此,建议在对可能含有这种效应的甚宽频带地震图进行分析时多加小心。作为一个恰当的例子,这里显示了最新观测到的W震相。 相似文献

Previous work concerning Gulf Stream warm-core rings (WCRs) and their associated shelf water entrainments have been based upon single surveys or time series from individual WCRs. To date, estimates of annual shelf water volume entrained into the Slope Sea by WCRs and its interannual variability have not been made. Using a long time series of satellite-derived sea surface temperature (SST) observations of Slope Sea WCRs, we have completed an analysis of 22 years of WCR data (1978–1999) between 75°W and 50°W to understand the interannual variability of WCRs and their role in entraining shelf water. Satellite-derived SST data digitized at Bedford Institute of Oceanography are analyzed using an ellipse-fitting feature model to determine key WCR characteristics including WCR center position, radius and orientation. Key characteristics are then used to compute WCR swirl velocity by finite-differencing WCR orientations (θ) obtained from the feature model time series. Global mean WCR-edge swirl velocity calculated from all observations is 105.72±10.7 km day−1 (122.36±12.4 cm s−1), and global mean WCR radius is 64.8±6.2 km. Primary and derived WCR data are incorporated into a two-dimensional ring entrainment model (RM) using the quasi-geostrophic approximation of the potential vorticity equation. The RM defines ambient water as entrained by a WCR only if the gradient of relative vorticity term (horizontal shear) dominates the potential vorticity. Proximity of a WCR to the position of the shelf-slope front (SSF) is then used to determine whether the ambient water is entrained from the outer continental shelf. WCR-induced shelf entrainment derived from the RM displays considerable spatial variability, with maximum entrainment occurring offshore of Georges Bank, advecting a mean total annual shelf water volume of 7500 km3 year−1 from the region. Estimates of shelf water fluxes display significant interannual variability, which may be in part due to the observed covariance between WCR occurrences and the state of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). Increased (decreased) occurrences of WCRs are evidenced during positive (negative) phases of the NAO. The total mean annual shelf-wide WCR-induced shelf water transport is estimated to be 23,700 km3 year−1 (0.75 Sv), accounting for nearly 25% of the total transport in the Slope Sea region neighboring the outer continental shelf. 相似文献
