The G-R relation lgN=a-bM (1954) is an empirical formula used widely in the seismicity research. But the linearity of b curves has great difference in different time and space domains. An interested question in this paper is that in how large
a space-time-strength domain the b value has certain physical connotation. This study told us that we can get optimal statistical results of b value in those space-time domains which can develop correspondent strong shocks with magnitude interval (M
s≥8.5, 8.0≤M
s<8.5, 7.0≤M
s<8.0). Thus, the possible seismogenic areas in which strong shocks with different magnitude intervals develop can be inferred
in different regions of the mainland of China. Finally, some new problems are proposed, such as the delimitation of seismic
province, the seismicity parameter determination in seismic hazard analysis and in earthquake predictions by using b value.

IntroductionMany anomalies due to earthquake have been recorded in observation of earth-resistivity for30 years and over, which showed that there objectively existed the anomalies of each-resistivity.The crustal strUcture and medium conditions are quite complex, so the complexity of the temporal,spatial and intensive development of the anomalies is inevitable. Both of time and amplitUde ofanomalies among some stations near an epicenter are different (even among different observational directi… 相似文献

Using the earthquake sequences data with MS≥6.5 since 1966 in Sichuan-Yunnan region, we research the charac-teristic of the magnitude difference distribution between main shocks and their strong aftershocks; and then study the spatial distribution characteristic of the strong aftershocks away from their main shocks. The result shows that the magnitude difference distribution obeys intercepted exponential distribution, while the spatial distribution of strong aftershocks obeys normal distribution and the dominated distribution area of strong shocks is 10~39 km away from main shock. Finally the probability density function of the magnitude difference distribution and the spatial distribution of strong aftershocks is deduced. 相似文献

Comparison between different earthquake magnitudes determined by China Seismograph Network 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
By linear regression and orthogonal regression methods, comparisons are made between different magnitudes (lo-cal magnitude ML, surface wave magnitudes MS and MS7, long-period body wave magnitude mB and short-period body wave magnitude mb) determined by Institute of Geophysics, China Earthquake Administration, on the basis of observation data collected by China Seismograph Network between 1983 and 2004. Empirical relations between different magnitudes have been obtained. The result shows that: 1 As different magnitude scales reflect radiated energy by seismic waves within different periods, earthquake magnitudes can be described more objectively by using different scales for earthquakes of different magnitudes. When the epicentral distance is less than 1 000 km, local magnitude ML can be a preferable scale; In case M<4.5, there is little difference between the magnitude scales; In case 4.5MS, i.e., MS underestimates magnitudes of such events, therefore, mB can be a better choice; In case M>6.0, MS>mB>mb, both mB and mb underestimate the magnitudes, so MS is a preferable scale for deter-mining magnitudes of such events (6.08.5, a saturation phenomenon appears in MS, which cannot give an accurate reflection of the magnitudes of such large events; 2 In China, when the epicentral distance is less than 1 000 km, there is almost no difference between ML and MS, and thus there is no need to convert be-tween the two magnitudes in practice; 3 Although MS and MS7 are both surface wave magnitudes, MS is in general greater than MS7 by 0.2~0.3 magnitude, because different instruments and calculation formulae are used; 4 mB is almost equal to mb for earthquakes around mB4.0, but mB is larger than mb for those of mB≥4.5, because the periods of seismic waves used for measuring mB and mb are different though the calculation formulae are the same. 相似文献

The existence of several magnitude scales used by seismological centers all over the world and the compilation of earthquake catalogs by many authors have rendered globally valid relations connecting magnitude scales a necessity. This would allow the creation of a homogeneous global earthquake catalog, a useful tool for earthquake research. Of special interest is the definition of global relations converting different magnitude scales to the most reliable and useful scale of magnitude, the moment magnitude, M
W. In order to accomplish this, a very large sample of data from international seismological sources (ISC, NEIC, HRVD, etc.) has been collected and processed. The magnitude scales tested against M
W are the surface wave magnitude, M
S, the body wave magnitude, m
b, and the local magnitude, M
L. The moment magnitudes adopted have been taken from the CMT solutions of HRVD and USGS. The data set used in this study contains 20,407 earthquakes, which occurred all over the world during the time period 1.1.1976–31.5.2003, for which moment magnitudes are available. It is shown that well-defined relations hold between M
W and m
b and M
S and that these relations can be reliably used for compiling homogeneous, with respect to magnitude, earthquake catalogs. 相似文献

The theoretical acceleration spectrum of observation site has been obtained from source acceleration spectrum derived from

. A comparison of a set of theoretical acceleration spectra with observation spectra has been made, and we have obtained the
attenuation model for observation site and seismic moment magnitude. We obtain thatQ
o=300,η=0.25 for Wuqia area, Xinjing Zizhizhou, and seismic moment magnitudes of 18 greater aftershocks of Wuqia earthquake occurred
in 1985. In order to obtain seismic moment magnitued conveniently, three functional tables of acceleration spectra at 1Hz
as the distances for variousQ value have been made. The seismic moment magnitude can be quickly measured from acceleration spectrum at 1Hz according to
these tables (epicenter has to be known).

Data from 753 earthquakes are used to determine a relationship between surface-wave magnitude (M
s) and bodywave magnitude (m
b), and from 541 earthquakes to determine a relationship between surface-wave magnitude (M
s) and local magnitude (M
L) for China and vicinity: M
s=0.9883 m
b-0.0420, M
s=0.9919 M
L-0.1773. The relationship of M
s
versus m
b is obtained for 292 events occurred in the Chinese mainland in the time period from 1964 to 1996, 291 events occurred in
Taiwan in the time period from 1964 to 1995 and 170 events occurred in the surrounding area. Standard deviation of the fitting
is 0.445. Relationship of M
s
versus M
L is obtained for 36 events occurred in the Chinese mainland, 293 events occurred in Taiwan, China and 212 events occurred
in the surrounding area. The total amount is 541 events. Standard deviation of the fitting is 0.4673.
The uncertainties of the converted M
s in different magnitude intervals can be estimated using complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF). In the relationship
of M
s
versus m
b, taking ±0.25 as a range of uncertainties, in magnitude interval m
b 4.0–4.9, the probabilities for the converted M
s taken value less than (M
s-0.25) and more than (M
s+0.25) are 17% and 27% respectively. Similarly, we have probabilities for m
b 5.0–5.9 are 34% and 20% and that for m
b 6.0–6.9 are 11% and 47%.
In the relationship of M
s
versus M
L, if the range of uncertainties is still taken as ±0.25, the corresponding probabilities for magnitude interval M
L 4.0–4.9 are 22% and 38%, for M
L 5.0–5.9 are 20% and 15% and for magnitude interval M
L 6.0–6.9, are 15% and 29%, respectively.
The relationships developed in this paper can be used for the conversion of one magnitude scale into another magnitude scales
conveniently. The estimation of uncertainties described in this paper is more accurate and more objective than the usual estimation
expressed by deviation. The estimations described in this paper indicate various dispersions in different magnitude intervals
of original data. The estimations of uncertainties described by probabilities can be well connected with the total estimations
of uncertainties in seismic hazard assessment. 相似文献

On the basis of about 300 earthquake wave forms observed in the Shidian M
S=5.9 sequences on April 12, 2001 recorded in Kunming Digital Seismic Network, the spectra of shear wave have been used to
estimate the focal parameters of these earthquake sequences. The results show that within the magnitude range of 1.5–5.3,
the seismic moments are 1010–1016 N·m, the corner frequencies are 0.2–0.8 Hz, radii of the focal rupture are 200–2 500 m and the stress drops are 0.1×105–20×105Pa. Through the statistical analyses of variation of corner frequency f
c and stress drop Δσ with time, it is discovered that the average corner frequency of the foreshock sequences is obviously
lower than that of the aftershock sequences. Contrarily, the average stress drops Δσ of the foreshock sequences are clearly
higher than that of the aftershocks. It is considered that these variation characteristics of average corner frequency and
stress drops before and after the main shock have index significance to the precursory information before a strong earthquake.
The higher stress drops for the foreshock sequences show that the higher shear stresses have been stored in the area of main
shock. After the main shock, most of the stresses have been released, so the aftershock sequences show a rupture process of
lower stresses.

Monitoring the West Bohemian earthquake swarm in 2008/2009 by a temporary small-aperture seismic array 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0
The most recent intense earthquake swarm in West Bohemia lasted from 6 October 2008 to January 2009. Starting 12 days after
the onset, the University of Potsdam monitored the swarm by a temporary small-aperture seismic array at 10 km epicentral distance.
The purpose of the installation was a complete monitoring of the swarm including micro-earthquakes (M
L < 0). We identify earthquakes using a conventional short-term average/long-term average trigger combined with sliding-window
frequency-wavenumber and polarisation analyses. The resulting earthquake catalogue consists of 14,530 earthquakes between
19 October 2008 and 18 March 2009 with magnitudes in the range of − 1.2 ≤ M
L ≤ 2.7. The small-aperture seismic array substantially lowers the detection threshold to about M
c = − 0.4, when compared to the regional networks operating in West Bohemia (M
c > 0.0). In the course of this work, the main temporal features (frequency–magnitude distribution, propagation of back azimuth
and horizontal slowness, occurrence rate of aftershock sequences and interevent-time distribution) of the recent 2008/2009
earthquake swarm are presented and discussed. Temporal changes of the coefficient of variation (based on interevent times)
suggest that the swarm earthquake activity of the 2008/2009 swarm terminates by 12 January 2009. During the main phase in
our studied swarm period after 19 October, the b value of the Gutenberg–Richter relation decreases from 1.2 to 0.8. This trend is also reflected in the power-law behavior
of the seismic moment release. The corresponding total seismic moment release of 1.02×1017 Nm is equivalent to M

The catalog of Kamchatka earthquakes is represented as a probability space of three objects {Ω, $
\tilde F
$
\tilde F
P}. Each earthquake is treated as an outcome ω
i
in the space of elementary events Ω whose cardinality for the period under consideration is given by the number of events.
In turn, ω
i
is characterized by a system of random variables, viz., energy class ki, latitude φ
i
, longitude λ
i
, and depth h
i
. The time of an outcome has been eliminated from this system in this study. The random variables make up subsets in the set
$

and are defined by multivariate distributions, either by the distribution function $
\tilde F
$
\tilde F
(φ, λ, h, k) or by the probability density f(φ, λ, h, k) based on the earthquake catalog in hand. The probabilities P are treated in the frequency interpretation. Taking the example of a recurrence relation (RR) written down in the form of
a power law for probability density f(k), where the initial value of the distribution function f(k
0) is the basic data [Bogdanov, 2006] rather than the seismic activity A
0, we proceed to show that for different intervals of coordinates and time the distribution f
elim(k) of an earthquake catalog with the aftershocks eliminated is identical to the distribution f
full(k), which corresponds to the full catalog. It follows from our calculations that f
0(k) takes on nearly identical numeral values for different initial values of energy class k
0 (8 ≤ k
0 ≤ 12) f(k
0). The difference decreases with an increasing number of events. We put forward the hypothesis that the values of f(k
0) tend to cluster around the value 2/3 as the number of events increases. The Kolmogorov test is used to test the hypothesis
that statistical recurrence laws are consistent with the analytical form of the probabilistic RR based on a distribution function
with the initial value f(k
0) = 2/3. We discuss statistical distributions of earthquake hypocenters over depth and the epicenters over various areas for
several periods 相似文献

Observation indicates thatmm x h≈mb for magnitude 4–5. It follows therefore thatmb (ECH)≈mb (WUS). This is supported by the result that the attenuation coefficient, the γ-value in eastern China is the same as in western

Application of the time-predictable model in Peninsular India for future seismic hazard assessment 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
It has been the belief among Earth scientists that the Peninsular Shield is aseismic, as the region attained stability long
ago. However, the earthquake at Koyna (10 December 1967), Bhadrachalam (13 April 1969), Broach (23 March 1970), Hyderabad
(30 June 1983), Khillari (30 September 1993), Jabalpur (22 May 1997), Gujarat (26 January 2001), and additional ones of smaller
magnitudes, altered this concept. This area has experienced many widely distributed shallow earthquakes, some of them having
large magnitudes. It is now widely accepted that seismic activity still continues with moderate events. Therefore, a need
has arisen to take into consideration recent seismological data to assess the future seismic status of Peninsular India. Earthquake
generation model has been studied to develop the statistical relations with surface wave magnitude (M
S
≥ 4.5). Five seismogenic sources showing clustering of earthquakes and including at least three main shocks of magnitude
4.5 ≤ M
S
≤ 6.5 giving two repeat times, have been identified. It is mainly based on the so-called “regional time-predictable model”.
For the considered region it is observed that the time interval between two consecutive main shocks depends on the preceding
main shock magnitude (M
p
) not on the following main shocks magnitude M
f
suggesting the validity of time predictable model in the region. 相似文献

Using the ground motion attenuation relation, we calculated and compared the effective peak acceleration (EPA) generated by main shocks and their strong aftershocks of 21 earthquake sequences with MS≥7 occurred in Chinese mainland and offing of China during 1966~2002. The result shows that EPA of strong aftershocks usually exceed that of main shock for 76.2% earthquake sequences and EPA of more than 50% strong aftershocks are greatly lar-ger than that of main shocks in large area, which suggests that it is necessary to take damage produced by strong aftershock into account in the probabilistic seismic hazard analysis and the seismic design. 相似文献

利用模板匹配方法对2015年11月23日青海省祁连县M_S5.2地震进行遗漏地震检测研究,由于主震后短时间内目录中遗漏事件较多,故对主震后1天的连续波形进行检测。主震后1天内青海测震台网记录到的余震个数(包括单台)共62个,选取主震后M_L1.0以上余震30个作为模板事件,通过匹配滤波的方式扫描出遗漏地震31个,约为台网目录给出的0.5倍。基于包络差峰值振幅与震级的线性关系估测检测事件的震级参数,最后将检测后的余震目录与台网余震目录在主震后1天内的最小完备震级进行对比分析,结果发现检测后最小完备震级从M_L1.2降到了M_L0.7,得到青海测震台网在祁连地区最小完整性震级为M_L0.7。 相似文献
