In this paper,we use the waveform data recorded by mobile seismic stations( KAC) which were set up in the source area after the Yingjiang MS5. 6earthquake on May 24,2014 to study the shear-wave splitting characteristics of Yingjiang M_S6.1 earthquake sequence with the SAM method. The result shows that predominant polarization of fast shear-waves before the M_S6.1 earthquake is consistent with the direction of regional principal compressive stress,and predominant polarization of fast shear-waves before the M_S6.1 earthquake show better consistency and smaller dispersion compared to after the M_S6.1 earthquake,and there may be a deflection for the fast shearwaves predominant polarization between the M_S6.1 earthquake sequence and foreshock sequence. We found that the time-delays generally exhibited a lower level before the M_S6.1earthquake and a relatively higher value after the M_S6.1 earthquake.展开更多

文摘The linear Gutenberg-Richter relationship is well-established. In any region of the Earth, the logarithm of the number of earthquakes, greater than any magnitude, is proportional to magnitude. This means that the underlying physics is non-linear and not purely elastic. This nonlinear physics has not been resolved. Here we suggest that a new understanding of fluid-rock deformation provides the physics underlying Gutenberg-Richter： where the fluid-saturated microcracks in almost all in situ rocks are so closely-spaced that they verge on failure and fracture, and hence are critical-systems which impose fundamentally-new properties on conventional sub-critical geophysics. The observation of linear Gutenberg-Richter relationship in moonquakes suggests that residual fluids exist at depth in the Moon.
