2016年台风“尼伯特”激发微地动的频率特征分析

台风可以改变海面波浪状态并激发出微地动信号，该信号可以传播至陆地并被宽频带地震仪记录到。本研究以201601号台风"尼伯特"为例，利用短时傅里叶变换，分析了7月3日12时至7月9日0时台风期间中国台湾和日本114个宽频带地震仪垂向分量信号功率谱特征。分析结果发现，在7月5日至7月7日之间，当台风距离台站1500~2000km时，中国台湾、琉球群岛及屋久岛的33个地震台站的地振动信号功率谱密度值显著增强，7月5日前后，在0.4Hz频率左右出现功率谱密度值增强的现象，之后由高频转至低频，7月7日左右功率谱密度值增强频率变化至约0.2Hz。利用全球地震背景噪声能量辐射模型模拟KGM台站所在位置（128.22°E，26.76°N）的双频微地动功率谱，结果表明7月5日至7日0.2~0.4Hz功率谱密度值增强，频率由约0.4Hz变化至0.2Hz的现象为海岸线反射效应所致。

汶川大地震前非台风扰动现象的研究

为了区分汶川大地震的震前扰动现象中的台风因素和非台风因素,本文研究了中国大陆宽带地震仪在汶川大地震前记录到的异常扰动信号的时频特征.研究结果表明汶川大地震的震前扰动主要由两种扰动构成,二者动态特征完全不同.其中优势频率为0.2～0.25 Hz的扰动主要与台风Rammasun有关.这种台风扰动在沿海地区较强,在内陆地区较弱,其震动源在靠近台风运动路径的海底.另一种优势频率为0.1～0.18 Hz的扰动与台风无关,这种非台风扰动在地震发生前约10 h突然急剧增强,其最大值出现在地震爆发时刻.非台风扰动在靠近震中的地区较强,在沿海和西部地区较弱.震源扰动扫描算法计算初步定位的结果显示其震动源不在海底,而是分散在震中附近的内陆地区.汶川大地震前的非台风扰动是否与汶川大地震有关,值得进行更深入的研究.     

基于中国内陆大孔径地震台阵的Rayleigh面波噪声源分布特征研究

Rayleigh面波地震背景噪声成像技术已被成功运用到全球范围不同尺度的地球内部结构的研究中,并以背景噪声场是时空均匀分布为前提假设.然而真实的噪声源分布的时空非均匀性将导致经验格林函数提取存在偏差,最终影响噪声成像结果的精准性.近年来,噪声源分布特征研究逐步成为提高噪声成像精准度、深化地震背景噪声成像的关键问题.本文利用频率-波束域分析法对中国西北地区的一个大孔径台阵(WuTan Array,简称WTA)在2014全年的垂直分量连续记录做了聚束分析,研究了Rayleigh波噪声源分布特征.结果显示:WTA台阵成功探测到了10～20s周期范围的来自于全球不同方位的Rayleigh波噪声信号,其源区分布具有明显的季节变化特征:冬季集中分布在北大西洋方位,而夏季则转为印度洋方位噪声信号最强.此外,Rayleigh波噪声源区空间分布还表现出一定的频率依赖性,即在较低频段(0.0488～0.0635Hz)在北大西洋、北太平洋、印度洋及西太平洋四个方位均有分布;而在频率较高频段(0.0928～0.1025Hz)则集中分布于西太平洋方位.Rayleigh波噪声源时空分布特征和频率依赖性与海洋活动本身的季节性变化和频谱特征有关.并初步推测本文所观测到的Rayleigh波是由加剧的海浪运动直接作用于海岸、大陆架或海底而激发产生的第一类地脉动噪声信号.

西北太平洋海岛地区地震背景噪声特征及海洋学解释

地震背景噪声特性及噪声源的分布研究逐渐成为深化背景噪声层析成像的关键问题.海岛地区由于特殊的地理位置,其背景噪声具有相对独特的特征.地脉动（约0.003~1 Hz）是地震背景噪声中能量最强的分量,其激发与特性被认为与海浪运动和固体地球之间的相互作用有关,但海岛地区地脉动特征与海洋波浪场之间的关系尚未被充分研究.本文利用西北太平洋海岛地震台站的连续记录数据、波浪浮标的实测数据以及WAVEWATCH-Ⅲ海浪模式的数值模拟结果,通过地震学和海洋学的交叉,分析海岛地区地脉动信号的时频特性及其与海洋波浪场之间的相关性,从海洋学角度对地脉动信号的特征及激发进行探讨与解释.结果表明,海岛地区地脉动信号相对于内陆地区更强,并具有明显且稳定的季节性变化特征：高频地脉动信号（0.12~0.32 Hz）在夏秋季节（5月-10月）相对较弱,而在冬春季节（11月-次年4月）相对较强,与北半球海洋活动季节性变化相一致.此外,海岛地区地脉动主要受周边海域波浪场影响,与周边海域波浪能功率密度及实测和数值模拟所得的有效波高均具有很好的互相关性.该研究结果同时表明可进一步发展利用地脉动观测数据反演海表波浪场的可能,为海洋科学研究中海表波浪场连续观测数据的获取提供地震学上的支持.     

地面脉动在昌吉小区划中的应用

台风激发的第二类地脉动特征及激发模式分析

0.003~1 Hz频段的地脉动主要来源于海浪运动与固体地球的耦合作用,台风引起的强烈海浪运动往往可使地脉动能量显著增强.由于涉及大气-海洋-固体地球三个圈层之间的复杂动量传递与耦合过程,迄今为止,关于台风激发地脉动的具体源区位置及激发机制尚存在争议.本文选取日本、中国东南沿海及台湾地区的地震台站波形连续记录,研究了2008年台风"森拉克"和"黑格比"激发地脉动的时频特征,开展相应数值模拟,并与观测数据进行了对比分析研究.结果表明台风激发第二类地脉动存在两种主要模式:(1)近岸源区激发,即台风引起波浪入射至海岸反射并与后续来波相互作用形成驻波作用于海底而激发;(2)台风中心附近源区激发,即台风中心移动过程中不同时期激发的同频率波浪相向传播、相互作用产生驻波作用于海底而激发,源区位置主要集中于台风中心左后方.此外,结合波浪再分析数据、台风风场特征,我们进一步对第二类地脉动激发过程中的影响因素进行了分析,发现:第一种模式激发的地脉动与近岸源区波浪场强度、观测点至源区距离及台风中心至海岸线距离等因素相关;而第二种模式激发的地脉动则主要受台风中心附近波浪场的频率成分与传播方向影响.     

风暴及台风天气引起的微震现象分析

本文主要利用时频分析法,基于2016年以来山东省泰安台重力仪及宽频带地震仪观测到的资料,对风暴天气和台风天气引起的微震现象进行研究. 结果表明:这两种天气过程产生的微震信号的频率基本分布在2—20 s之间,能量集中在5—7 s,15 s附近存在一个能量平稳加强的频段;风暴天气产生的微震信号具有由高频向低频演化的动态特征;两种天气条件下产生的微震信号均具有连续、高频及持续时间长的性质,反映了微震信号激发源的移动特征。 结合泰安台微震与风暴和台风天气的一一对应情况,认为微震是一种与近海风暴或远海台风活动有关的微震动过程,而不是与地震有关的前兆异常。      

Results of Analysis of the Data of Microseismic Survey at Lanzarote Island,Canary, Spain

From the data of a microseismic survey of the Lanzarote Island territory (Canary Archipelago) we obtained a microseisms amplitude distribution in the frequency range 0.3–12.5 Hz. We found a distinguished anomaly such as an amplitude depression, whose size and magnitude depend on the frequency. After studying the statistical and polarization properties of microseism signals we proposed a model explaining this depression, based on the presence of a rigid intrusive body in the center of the island. Results of our survey coincided well with independent detailed gravity survey results whose interpretation also implies the presence of intrusion. We estimated shear-wave velocity for the rocks of intrusion and for surrounding rocks using microseismic data.

Spectral development of microseism storms at the Oulu seismograph station,Finland

Summary In this study spectral development of microseisms at Oulu is discussed by means of power spectra computed from the recordings of a long period vertical seismograph. North Atlantic storm microseisms are found to be distinguished at peak frequencies in band 90–130 mHz while the main peaks of Norwegian microseisms occur at frequencies higher than 130 mHz. In both of these cases a low frequency side maximum is found at nearly the same frequencies as the main maximum in corresponding sea wave spectra. Fast moving storms associate with rapid changes in microseism spectra. A shift of peaks towards higher frequencies is found in connection with storm approach.

Experimental study on frequency-dependent elastic properties of weakly consolidated marine sandstone: effects of partial saturation

Investigating seismic dispersion and attenuation characteristics of loosely compacted marine sandstone is essential in reconciling different geophysical measurements (surface seismic, well logging and ultrasonic) for better characterization of a shallow marine sandstone reservoir. We have experimented with a typical high-porosity and high-permeability sandstone sample, extracted from the Paleogene marine depositional setting in the Gulf of Mexico, at the low-frequency band (2–500 Hz) as well as ultrasonic point (10⁶ Hz), to investigate the effects of varying saturation levels on a rock's elasticity. The results suggest that the Young's modulus of the measured sample with adsorbed moisture at laboratory conditions (room temperature, 60%–90% humidity) exhibits dispersive behaviours. The extensional attenuation can be as high as 0.038, and the peak frequency occurs around 60 Hz. The extensional attenuation due to moisture adsorption can be dramatically mitigated with the increase of confining pressure. For partial saturation status, extensional attenuation increases as increasing water saturation by 79% with respect to the measured frequencies. Additionally, the results show that extensional attenuation at the fully water-saturated situation is even smaller than that at adsorbed moisture conditions. The Gassmann–Wood model can overall capture the P-wave velocity-saturation trend of measured data at seismic frequencies, demonstrating that the partially saturated unconsolidated sandstone at the measured seismic frequency range is prone to be in the relaxed status. Nevertheless, the ultrasonic velocities are significantly higher than the Gassmann–Wood predictions, suggesting that the rocks are in the unrelaxed status at the ultrasonic frequency range. The poroelastic modelling results based on the patchy saturation model also indicate that the characteristic frequency of the partially saturated sample is likely beyond the measured seismic frequency range.     

Local-scale cross-correlation of seismic noise from the Calico fault experiment

Most studies of seismic noise cross-correlation (NCC) have focused on regional/continental scale imaging using empirical surface-wave Green’s functions extracted from primary (0.05–0.08 Hz) and secondary (0.1–0.16 Hz) microseisms. In this work, we present the NCC results at higher frequencies (>0.5 Hz) from 6 months seismic noise recorded by a local array (~4 km aperture) deployed along the Calico fault in the Mojave Desert, California. Both fast and slow propagating waves are observed from the NCC record-sections. We compare the NCCs from sensor pairs that share a common sensor with the records of a borehole shot located very close to this common sensor. The result shows a good match of the slow surface-wave arrivals, indicating that the NCC method is able to recover unbiased surface-wave Green’s functions at local scales. The strong body-wave NCC component is caused by the P waves generated offshore California. Along a SW–NE profile across the fault, we observe apparent P-wave arrivals and their reflections, which can be explained by a low-velocity-zone (LVZ) along the Calico fault. We calculate the LVZ width to be ~ 2.3 km, and the P-wave velocity reduction within the LVZ to be ~35 %. These estimates are consistent with other evidence for a relatively wide LVZ along the Calico fault.     

Microseismic noise in the low frequency range (Periods of 1–300 min): Properties and possible prognostic features

The paper generalizes the experience accumulated in studies of microseismic noise in the period range from 1 to 300 min observed during time intervals preceding a few strong earthquakes. This frequency range is the least studied and occupies an intermediate position between low frequency seismology and investigations of slow geophysical processes. The range includes oscillations induced by atmospheric and oceanic processes and various modes of the Earth’s free oscillations excited by very strong earthquakes. The main attention in the paper is given to the background behavior of microseisms, which contains continuous present arrivals from near weak and far strong and moderate earthquakes. The paper focuses on the examination of synchronization effects arising in joint multivariate analysis of information from several stations with estimation of multifractal spectra of singularity and multidimensional spectral measures of coherent behavior of singularity spectral parameters. The problem of using the synchronization effects of microseismic background in the search for new precursors of strong earthquakes is discussed.     

The effect of baric disturbances in the atmosphere on microseismic processes in the crust

The effect of baric variations of different origins on characteristics of seismic noise is analyzed in the frequency range 0.03–20 Hz. Long period variations in atmospheric pressure caused by cyclones, whose period T ranges from half a day to a few days, are shown to increase the microseismic background amplitude by two to four times in the frequency range 0.03–1 Hz (the coefficient of linear correlation between time variations in the amplitude and atmospheric pressure is K = 0.65 at a significance level of r = 0.95). Short-period baric variations with T ～ 5–30 min associated with the passage of cold fronts lead to a tenfold increase in the microseismic background amplitude in the frequency range 4–8 Hz (K = 0.67 at r = 0.95). In this case, disturbances of seismic background are recorded for 20–60 min after the passage of an atmospheric front and display an exponential drop in the amplitude. In distinction to cyclones, an atmospheric front increases the number of impulsive microseismic events of the resonance type.
