We use 576 earthquakes of magnitude, M
w, 3.3 to 6.8 that occurred within the region 33° N–42.5° N, 19° E–30° E in the time period 1969 to 2007 to investigate the
stability of the relation between moment magnitude, M
w, and local magnitude, M
L, for earthquakes in Greece and the surrounding regions. We compare M
w to M
L as reported in the monthly bulletins of the National Observatory of Athens (NOA) and to M
L as reported in the bulletins of the Seismological Station of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. All earthquakes have
been analyzed through regional or teleseismic waveform inversion, to obtain M
w, and have measured maximum trace amplitudes on the Wood–Anderson seismograph in Athens, which has been in operation since
1964. We show that the Athens Wood–Anderson seismograph performance has changed through time, affecting the computed by NOA
M
L by at least 0.1 magnitude units. Specifically, since the beginning of 1996, its east–west component has been recording systematically
much larger amplitudes compared to the north–south component. From the comparison between M
w and M
L reported by Thessaloniki, we also show that the performance of the sensors has changed several times through time, affecting
the calculated M
L’s. We propose scaling relations to convert the M
L values reported from the two centers to M
w. The procedures followed here can be applied to other regions as well to examine the stability of magnitude calculations
through time. 相似文献

Comparison between earthquake magnitudes determined by China seismograph network and US seismograph network (Ⅱ): Surface wave magnitude 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
By using orthogonal regression method, a systematic comparison is made between surface wave magnitudes determined by Institute of Geophysics of China Earthquake Administration (IGCEA) and National Earthquake Information Center of US Geological Survey (USGS/NEIC) on the basis of observation data collected by the two institutions between 1983 and 2004. A formula is obtained which reveals the relationship between surface wave magnitudes determined by China seismograph network and US seismograph network. The result shows that, as different calculation formulae and observational instruments are used, surface wave magnitude determined by IGCEA is generally greater by 0.2 than that determined by NEIC: for M=3.5-4.5 earthquakes, it is greater by 0.3; for M=5.0-6.5 earthquakes, it is greater by 0.2; and for M≥7.0 earthquakes, it is greater by no more than 0.1. 相似文献

An exact and available model on bidirectional reflectance surface-atmospheric coupled radiation is of great significance for spaceborne remote sensing application. Based on the physical process of interaction of solar radiation with the surface and the atmosphere, a new model on bidirectional reflectance surface-atmospheric coupled radiation is developed in this paper. As shown in numerical simulation, this model is evidently better than the 6S model. The standard error among 110112 sets of upward radiance data calculated by this new model is only 0.49%, which is about one fourth of the one by 6S. In the condition of the solar zenith angle θs⩽75° and the viewing angle θ v⩽ 60°, the error by the new model is usually smaller than 2.5%. 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

Introduction Gutenberg (1945a, b) introduced body wave magnitude based on P, PP and S waves (with a period of 0.5~12.0 s) of teleseismic events. Body wave magnitude includes mb determined with short-period seismograph and mB determined with middle- and long-period seismographs. Some-times it is written as m, which is referred to as unified earthquake magnitude. mb represents earth-quake magnitude measured with body wave amplitude around 1 s, while mB represents earthquake magnitude measured … 相似文献

We have derived, evaluated, and compared two empirical methods for computing duration magnitude M
D
from 25 short-period vertical component stations of the Northern Morocco Seismic Network (NMSN). M
D
has been scaled to IGN (Insituto Geograpfico National, Spain) body-wave magnitude (mb
IGN
), using a set of 479 shallow (less than 30 km) earthquakes recorded from March 1992 to February 2001, with 2.5 ≤ mb
IGN
≤ 5.4. In the first approach: Individual Network Calibration, we determined an individual M
D
formula for each station. In the second approach: Global Network Calibration, we used a single relationship to compute M
Dij
(from the jth observation for the i-th earthquake) magnitudes at 25 selected stations as: M
Dij
= − 0.14 +1.63 log10 (τ
ij
)+0.031(Δij)+cSta
j
. Residuals (M
Dij
− mb
IGN
) for both techniques were thereafter deduced. Comparison between the two approaches provided the principal results: (1) The
mean correlation between estimated magnitude; M
Dij
and reference magnitude; mb
IGN
is about 89.9% for the individual calibration method, and near 95% for global calibration method in which station corrections
cSta
j
were introduced, (2) Residuals (M
Dij
− mb
IGN
) are relatively large, and are ranging between − 0.60 and 0.60 magnitude units, for the individual calibration method, whereas
they vary in the range − 0.38 to 0.40, for the global calibration method with corrections; cSta
j
. (3) A random distribution of residuals (M
Dij
− mb
IGN
) is observed for each station in the case of the individual approach. Thus, the resulting average of these residuals is almost
equal to zero. Using a global calibration without corrections results in negative residuals for a group stations and positive
residuals for another an group indicating respectively that sites corresponding to these groups have a tendency to underestimate,
or overestimate observed magnitude values. 相似文献

The modified scale M s(20R) is developed for the magnitude classification of the earthquakes of Russia’s Far East based on the surface wave amplitudes at regional distances. It extends the applicability of the classical Gutenberg scale M s(20) towards small epicentral distances (0.7°–20°). The magnitude is determined from the amplitude of the signal that is preliminarily bandpassed to extract the components with periods close to 20 s. The amplitude is measured either for the surface waves or, at fairly short distances of 0.7°–3°, for the inseparable wave group of the surface and shear waves. The main difference of the M s(20R) scale with the traditional M s(BB) Soloviev–Vanek scale is its firm spectral anchoring. This approach practically eliminated the problem of the significant (up to–0.5) regional and station anomalies characteristic of the M s(BB) scale in the conditions of the Far East. The absence of significant station and regional anomalies, as well as the strict spectral anchoring, make the M s(20R) scale advantageous when used for prompt decision making in tsunami warnings for the coasts of Russia’s Far East. 相似文献

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

According to geological tectonics and seismic activites this paper devided North China (30°–45°N, 105°–130°E) into four areas.
We analyzed the North China earthquake catalogue from 1970 to 1986 (from 1965 to 1986 for Huabei, the North China, plain region)
and identified forty-two bursts of aftershock. Seven of them occurred in aftershock regions of strong earthquakes and seventeen
of them in the seismic swarm regions. The relation between strong earthquakes with the remaining eighteen bursts of aftershocks
has been studied and tested statistically in this paper. The result of statistical testing show that the random probabilityp of coincidence of bursts of aftershock with subsequent strong earthquakes is less than six percent. By Xu’sR scoring method the efficacy of predicting strong earthquake from bursts of aftershock is estimated greater than 39 percent.
Following the method proposed in the paper we analyzed the earthquake catalogue of China from 1987 to June, 1988. The results
show that there was only one burst of aftershock occurred on Jan. 6, 1988 withM=3.6 in Xiuyan of Northeast China. It implicates that a potential earthquake withM
S⩽5 might occur in one year afterwards in the region of Northeast China. Actually on Feb. 25, 1988 an earthquake withM
S=5.3 occurred in Zhangwu of Northeast China. Another example is Datong-Yanggao shock on October 18, 1989 which is a burst
of aftershock. Three hours after an expected shock withM =6.1 took place in the same area. Two examples above have been tested in practical prediction and this shows that bursts
of aftershocks are significant in predicting strong earthquakes.

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. 相似文献

The surface-wave magnitudes of a selection of New Zealand earthquakes have been determined on a consistent basis using the ‘Prague formula’ and station corrections. The earthquakes range in magnitude from about 5 to 7.8, covering the instrumental period 1901–1988. Magnitudes for many of the earlier events had not been properly determined previously; and some significant discrepancies from the traditional magnitudes were found. The use of European station data (160° < D < 175°) is important to New Zealand because of its geographical isolation. These distant data were found to give consistently slightly higher Ms than closer stations, but could be used without bias through the station correction procedure. The relationship between Ms and ML was found for 31 ‘shallow’ New Zealand events and much of the scatter was explained as a function of depth. Significant differences in Ms/ML expressions from Europe and California were also found. The limited New Zealand data for Mw and M0 related well to Californian and global relationships with Ms. 相似文献

Summary TheM
s
Rayleigh wave magnitude formula is revised for purposes of eliminating the variable effects of near distances and propagation pats on the values computed from standard long period seismograms. The improved formulation employs a revised distance correction function and period dependent path correction that normalisesM
s
to large teleseismic distance, 20 second values. The method for computing the path corrections is described. The magnitude scale presented here givesM
s
values which are within ±0.1 magnitude units of the Gutenberg and Prague magnitude formulae. 相似文献

A catalog for northeast India and the adjoining region for the period 1897–2009 with 4,497 earthquakes events is compiled
for homogenization to moment magnitude M
w,GCMT in the magnitude range 3–8.7. Relations for conversion of m
b and M
s magnitudes to M
w,GCMT are derived using three different methods, namely, linear standard regression, inverted standard regression (ISR) and orthogonal
standard regression (OSR), for different magnitude ranges based on events data for the catalog period 1976–2006. The OSR relations
for M
s to M
w,GCMT conversion derived in this paper have significantly lower errors in regression parameters compared to the relations reported
in other studies. Since the number of events with magnitude ≥7 for this region is scanty, we, therefore, considered whole
India region to obtain the regression relationships between M
w,GCMT and M
s,ISC. A relationship between M
w,GCMT and M
w,NEIC is also obtained based on 17 events for the range 5.2 ≤ magnitude ≤ 6.6. A unified homogeneous catalog prepared using the
conversion relations derived in this paper can serve as a reference catalog for seismic hazard assessment studies in northeast
India and the adjoining region. 相似文献

The source parameters of the Bohai Sea earthquake, July 18, 1969 and Yongshan, Yunnan earthquake, May 11, 1974 were determined
by full — wave theory synthetic seismograms of teleseismic P waves. P+pP+sP wereform were calculated with WKBJ approximation
and real integral paths. One — dimensional unilateral, finite propagation source was also considered. By trail — and — error
in comparing the theoretical seismograms with the observational ones of WWSSN stations, the source parameters were obtained
as follow: for Bohai earthquake, φ=195°, δ=85°, λ=65°,M
o=0.9×1019Nm,L=59.9km.V
R=3.5km/s, ∧

R=3km/s, ∧
R
=−10°, where φ is strike, δ dip angle, λ slip angle,M
o seismic moment,L rupture length,V
R rupture propagation speed. As III type fractures the faulting propagated along the fault planes, and ∧
R
is the angle from the strike to the propagation direction. Yongshan earthquake showed complexity in its focal process, having
four sub—ruptures during the first 60 seconds.
