九江-瑞昌MemＳsub5.7地震地磁异常的观测与分析y

2005年11月26日九江——瑞昌MＳ5.7地震发生前,震中及其周围地区的地磁基本场测量和相应的ldquo;2005.0中国地磁基本场曲面样条模型rdquo;显示,震中周围100 km范围内存在显著的ldquo;2005.0九江——瑞昌地磁基本场水平分量异常rdquo;. 而该异常在ldquo;1970.0中国地磁基本场曲面样条模型rdquo;中并不存在. 2005年12月在震中及其周围地区的21个测点上进行了地磁重复测量, 并建立了ldquo;局部修订2005.0中国地磁基本场曲面样条模型rdquo;. 该模型显示,震后ldquo;2005.0九江——瑞昌地磁基本场水平分量异常rdquo;明显减弱. 因此认为,ldquo;2005.0九江——瑞昌地磁基本场水平分量异常rdquo;是地震地磁前兆异常现象.      

地震前后岩石圈磁场变化特征分析

本文以九江—瑞昌M_s5.7级地震和汶川M_s8.0级地震为研究对象,根据两个震区地震后观测所得地磁场三分量数据和“2005.0中国地磁图”项目所积累的地磁场三分量数据,建立了两个震区的岩石圈磁场模型.通过对比分析两个震区岩石圈磁场总强度、磁偏角、磁倾角三个独立分量地震前后的时空变化特征,初步探讨地震与岩石圈磁场变化关系,寻找有效震磁变化信息.结果表明：（1）两次震中均位于岩石圈磁场的磁偏角和磁倾角零值线附近;（2）震后震中百公里范围内岩石圈磁场分量均出现了不同程度的异常变化;（3）震中附近岩石圈磁场出现了明显的与地震相关的变化,该变化在两个震区表现出相近的规律性.     

Geomagnetic diurnal-variation anomalies and their relation to strong earthquakes

The diurnal-variation anomalies of the vertical-component in geomagnetic field are mainly the changes of phase and amplitude before strong earthquakes. On the basis of data recorded by the network of geomagnetic observatories in China for many years, the anomalous features of appearance time of the minima of diurnal variations (i.e, low-point time) of the geomagnetic vertical components and the variation of their spatial distribution (i.e, phenomena of low-point displacement) have been studied before over 30 strong earthquakes with M _S≥6.6 such as Kunlunshan M _S=8.1 earthquake on November 14, 2001; Bachu-Jashi M _S=6.8 earthquake on February 24, 2003; Xiaojin M _S=6.6 earthquake on September 22, 1989, etc. There are good relations between such rare phenomena of geomagnetic anomalies and the occurrence of earthquakes. It has been found that most earthquakes occur in the vicinity of the boundary line of sudden change of the low-point displacement and generally within four days before and after the 27th or 41st day counting from the day of appearance of the anomaly. In addition, the anomalies of diurnal-variation amplitude near the epicentral area have been also studied before Kunlunshan M _S=8.1 earthquake and Bachu-Jiashi M _S=6.8 earthquake.

Spatial Correlation Anomalies of the Diurnal Variation of the Geomagnetic Vertical Component before the Yingjiang MS6.1 and Ludian MS6.5 Earthquakes

Significant anomalies were observed at the geomagnetic stations in the southwest region of China before the Yingjiang M_S6.1 earthquake and the Ludian M_S6.5 earthquake in 2014. We processed the geomagnetic vertical component diurnal variation data by the spatial correlation method. The results show that during the period from April 1 to May 20, 2014,there existed quasi-synchronous decrease changes in the coefficient curves between the five geomagnetic stations of Guiyang,Hechi,Nanshan,Muli,Yongning and Xinyi and Hongshan stations.Furthermore,there was a high gradient zone in the normalized correlation coefficient contour map with background values removed. The epicenters of the Yingjiang M_S6.1 earthquake and the Ludian M_S6.5 earthquake are located in the gradient zone or near the gradient zone.

2013年岷县—漳县6.6级地震前地磁日变化异常及机理分析

利用空间相关法对2013年岷县—漳县6.6级地震前后151个台站地磁垂直分量日变化进行分析,结果显示:(1)2013年7月3日、4日在震中附近分别出现16和17个台站的地磁Z分量日变化明显反相位异常,具有明显的分界线。(2)利用S变换方法对分界线两侧的天水和兰州台的Z分量日变化进行分频率相关系数计算,发现7月3日、4日的地磁Z分量的日变化均在6 h左右的周期出现负相关变化。其他时段未出现类似变化,认为岷县—漳县6.6级地震前地磁Z分量日变化异常产生的反相位异常主要在6 h左右。此外,还对异常产生的机理进行了解释。     

华北地区地磁加卸载响应比方法应用研究

运用地磁加卸载响应比方法(LURR)对华北地区23个地磁台站2008—2014年的数字化地磁相对记录数据进行计算分析,结果显示华北地区7年内发生了38次共计10组加卸载响应比异常,其中7组有震例对应,在选定的24次震例中16次有震前异常。经统计发现各次异常发生时其异常面积与最大异常强度成正比关系,各组异常内累计异常台站数量与组内地震辐射能量有一定相关性。对有震例的7组异常分析后认为多数情况下组内各次异常之间有一定联系,主要表现为位置的连续性及继承性,并且发现震中位置和异常位置分布有一定关系。

甘肃三个台地磁日变赫斯特指数的时序特征

选用甘肃嘉峪关、兰州和天水地磁台2011—2013年的观测数据,重点研究地磁垂直向日变化波形下行段的赫斯特指数变化的时序特征。结果表明,在此3年内,嘉峪关台和兰州台地磁垂直向日变化波形下行段的赫斯特指数变化范围分别是0.08和0.06,天水台在2012年存在一个赫斯特指数幅度超过正常变化范围的过程,在此过程完成后的2013年7月22日,在距离天水130km的漳县和岷县交界发生M6.6地震。结合其他学者的研究结果,认为这一赫斯特指数的异常变化过程可能反映了区域性地球深部(下地壳与上地幔)热物质运移变化而引起地球局部居里面变化,也可能是地震孕育过程在地磁日变中的表征。这一发现有益于进一步研究地磁日变异常的机理、震磁关系以及地震预报的探索。     

Short-term and imminent geomagnetic anomalies of the Wenchuan MS8.0 earthquake and exploration on earthquake forecast

The diurnal variation of the geomagnetic vertical component is exhibited mainly by changes of phase and amplitude before strong earthquakes. Based on data recorded by the network of geomagnetic observatories in China for many years, the anomalous features of the appearance time of the minima of diurnal variations (i.e, low-point time) of the geomagnetic vertical components and the variation of their spatial distribution (i.e, phenomena of low-point displacement) have been studied before the Wenchuan M_S8.0 earthquake. The strong aftershocks after two months' quiescence of M6 aftershocks of the M_S8.0 event were forecasted based on these studies. There are good correlativities between these geomagnetic anomalies and occurrences of earthquakes. It has been found that most earthquakes occur near the boundary line of sudden changes of the low-point time and generally within four days before or after the 27th or 41st day counting from the day of the appearance of the anomaly. In addition, the imminent anomalies in diurnal-variation amplitudes near the epicentral areas have also been studied before the Wenchuan earthquake.     

The 20-second regional magnitude <Emphasis Type="Italic">M</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis></Subscript>(20R) for the Russian Far East

A new modified magnitude scale M _S (20R) is elaborated. It permits us to extend the teleseismic magnitude scale M _S (20) to the regional epicenter distances. The data set used in this study contains digital records at 12 seismic stations of 392 earthquakes that occured in the northwest Pacific Ocean in the period of 1993–2008. The new scale is based on amplitudes of surface waves of a narrow range of the periods (16–25 s) close to the period of 20 s, for distances of 80–3000 km. The digital Butterworth filter is used for processing. On the basis of the found regional features concerning distance dependence for seismic wave attenuation, all the stations of the region have been subdivided into two groups, namely, “continental” and “island-arc.” For each group of stations, its own calibration function is proposed. Individual station corrections are used to compensate for the local features.     

Investigation of rupture process of the 1999 M =5.4 Xiuyan, Liaoning, earthquake sequence

Conclusions The sequence of the November 29, 1999 Xiuyan, Liaoning, earthquake withM _S=5.4 is relocated, and its rupture process is analyzed. Results are as follows: The rupture extended mainly before the January 12, 2000,M _S=5.1 earthquake. There are two phases of rupture extending: The first phase was before the November 29, 1999,M _S=5.4 earthquake, epicenters were situated within a small region with a dimension of about 5 km, and the focal depth increased. It shows that the rupture mainly extended from shallow part to deep in the vertical direction. The second phase was between theM _S=5.4 earthquake and theM _S=5.1 earthquake, earthquakes migrated along southeast, the focal depth decreased. It indicates that the rupture extended along southeast and from deep to shallow part. Foundation item: The Project of “Mechanism and Prediction of the Strong Continental Earthquake” (95-13-05-04).

Earth's rotation-triggered earthquakes before the 2018 MS5.7 Xingwen earthquake

For earthquakes (M_L≥2.0) that occurred from January 2006 to October 2018 around the M_S5.7 Xingwen earthquake occurred on 16 December 2018 in Xingwen, Sichuan province, China, we statistically investigated the correlation between the phase of Earth's rotation and the occurrence of earthquakes via Schuster's test to determine the signals that triggered earthquakes before the M_S5.7 Xingwen event. The results were evaluated based on the P-value where a smaller P-value corresponded to a higher correlation between the occurrence of an earthquake and Earth's rotation. We investigated the spatial distribution of P-values in the region around the epicenter of the M_S5.7 Xingwen event, and obtained a result exhibiting a extremely low-P-value region. The M_S5.7 event occurred inside near the northern boundary of this region. Furthermore, we analyzed the temporal evolution of P-values for earthquakes that occurred within the extremely low-P-value region and found that some extremely low P-values (less that 0.1%), i.e., significant correlation, were calculated for earthquakes that occurred before the M_S5.7 Xingwen earthquake. Among sixty-one earthquakes with the lowest P-value, occurred from May 2014 to April 2018, a vast majority of them occurred during the acceleration of Earth's rotation. The lower P-value obtained in this study reveals that the Xingwen source body probably was extremely unstable prior to the occurrence of the M_S5.7 Xingwen earthquake.

Dynamic evolution patterns of the degree of ground resistivity anisotropy and the seismogenic process

Following a new train of thinking, this paper has explored first the potential information in the ground resistivity data observed by the existing geoelectric observation system, investigated and proposed a new dimensionless geoelectric precursor factor, the degree of ground resistivity anisotropy, S, and studied the characteristics of dynamic evolution pattern of S during the seismogenic process. The results show that, during the seismogenic process, the degree of ground resistivity anisotropy (S) displays a process of 'normal' →'abnormal strengthening (amplitude, range)' →abnormal weakening' → 'earthquake occurrence'→ 'normal'. The earthquake would occur at the time when the S value has entered the late stage of strengthening and turns to weaken and in the gradient belt on the margin of S anomaly region. The dynamic evolution pattern of S reflects the changes of the tectonic stress field during the seismogenic process. Therefore, it would be possible to trace the process of earthquake generation and occurrence from the dynamic evolution pattern of S so as to service earthquake prediction.

Changes in source parameters of foreshocks and aftershocks of the 2001 Ms=6.0 Yajiang,Sichuan, earthquake

In this paper changes in focal mechanisms) parameters of wave spectra, and stress drops for the Ms=5.0 forcshock and Ms=6.0 mainshock in February 2001 in Yajiang County, Sichuan, and seismicity in cpiccntral region are studied. Comparison of focal mechanisms for the Yajiang earthquakes with distribution patterns of aftcrshocks, the nodal plane Ⅰ, striking in the direction of NEN, of the Yajiang M=5.0 event is chosen as the faulting plane, the nodal plane Ⅱ, striking in the direction of WNW, of the M=6.0 event as the faulting plane. The strikes of the two faulting planes are nearly perpendicular to each other. The level of stress drops in the cpicentral region before the occurrence of the M=6.0 earthquake increases, which is consistent with increase of seismicity in the epicentral region. The rate decay of the Yajiang earthquake sequence, changes in wave spectra for foreshocks and aftershocks,and focal mechanisms are complex.
