A Study on the Relationship Between Sequential Anomalies of Water Level Step-Variations in the Wanquan Well and Earthquakes

This paper studies the relationship between water level step-variation anomalies and regional seismic activity.The train of thinking is as follows:First,a series of water level step-variation anomalies are regarded as sequential step-variation anomalies; next,these sequential anomalies are divided into several sub-sequential anomalies according to the temporal density of step-variations in different segments of the sequence; then the generation and evolution processes of various sub-sequential anomalies are analyzed to find their relation with regional moderate-strong earthquake activities,and finally the various sub-sequential anomalies are synthesized as sequential anomalies so as to analyze their relation with the tendency of seismic activities.By the above method,this paper has analyzed the relationship between a series of water level step-variation anomalies at the Wanquan well since 1981 and several regional moderate-strong earthquake activities.According to the monthly frequency,amplitude and tre
