Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a method for assessing the monitoring capabilities of seismic stations, specifically a method for assessing the magnitude threshold of Pn wave signal monitoring at seismic stations based on the reciprocity principle. Background Technology
[0002] The Pn wave signal is the first arrival signal recorded in a regional seismic waveform record. It has high arrival time accuracy and is used as the preferred signal for locating intracranial earthquakes in seismic monitoring. The monitoring capability of a seismic station for a specific region is generally characterized by the magnitude threshold of the Pn wave signal recorded by the seismic station for that region.
[0003] Directly analyzing the magnitude threshold of Pn-wave signals recorded by seismic stations is the simplest method to assess the monitoring capabilities of seismic stations. However, this method is only applicable to assessment scenarios where existing observational data already exists. It requires acquiring seismic signal observation data from existing seismic stations in the area where a new seismic station is planned, and the observed magnitudes must fall within a certain range. For example, this could be in situations where seismic stations have been built and operating for a long time, accumulating a large amount of observational data, or where temporary observation equipment is being set up in the area where a new seismic station is planned for data accumulation. However, in reality, assessment results are needed before the construction of a new seismic station, or setting up a temporary seismic station in the area where a new seismic station is planned is difficult (e.g., in the uninhabited areas of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau). Existing methods for assessing the magnitude threshold of Pn-wave signals cannot conveniently provide the magnitude threshold for Pn-wave signals of seismic events in the target area from the proposed seismic station. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the technical problem that it is difficult to assess the magnitude threshold of Pn wave signal monitoring at seismic stations because it is impossible to directly obtain observation data of the area where the seismic station is to be built, or it is difficult to build a temporary seismic station. Therefore, this invention provides a method for assessing the magnitude threshold of Pn wave signal monitoring at seismic stations based on the reciprocity principle.
[0005] The design concept of this invention is:
[0006] This invention proposes a method for evaluating the magnitude threshold of Pn wave signals monitored by seismic stations based on the principle of seismic reciprocity. It uses the magnitude threshold of Pn wave signals of natural earthquakes in the proposed station area recorded by seismic stations in the source area to evaluate the magnitude threshold of Pn wave signals monitored by seismic stations in the proposed station area for intracranial earthquakes in the source area.
[0007] Since Pn wave signals primarily propagate in the upper mantle, they are significantly affected by the non-uniform scattering and inelastic attenuation of the upper mantle. Therefore, the amplitude of Pn wave signals passing through some high-attenuation regions will be significantly smaller, resulting in a significantly lower Pn wave signal monitoring capability at the corresponding seismic stations. The difference in attenuation of Pn wave signals in the upper mantle is the main factor causing the amplitude difference. According to the reciprocity principle in seismology, the Pn wave signal from the source to the seismic station will undergo the same attenuation as the Pn wave signal from the seismic station to the source. Therefore, to assess the magnitude threshold for monitoring Pn wave signals of intracranial earthquakes in region B (where seismic stations have already been built) by seismic stations in region A (which have not yet been built), an equivalent analysis can be performed to assess the intensity of Pn wave signals from intracranial earthquakes in region A monitored by seismic stations in region B.
[0008] Using the reciprocity principle in seismology, the problem of assessing the monitoring magnitude threshold of Pn wave signals of earthquakes within the crust of region B by seismic stations in region A is transformed into calculating the nominal monitoring magnitude of Pn wave signals of earthquakes within the crust of region A by seismic stations in region B. The corresponding monitoring magnitude threshold of Pn wave signals is obtained by using the magnitude difference between the nominal monitoring magnitude and the monitored magnitude.
[0009] Earthquake magnitudes (including local magnitude, teleseismic body wave magnitude, and surface wave magnitude) all have the following general form:
[0010] M = alg(V) + σ(△)
[0011] Where V is the amplitude of a certain type of seismic signal measured using various methods; α is the relationship coefficient between signal amplitude and magnitude (Amplitude-Magnitude relationship), caused by the difference in corner frequencies of the source spectrum of different magnitude earthquakes; σ(Δ) is the gauge function for magnitude calculation, reflecting the attenuation of the seismic signal used to calculate the magnitude with the epicentral distance. For a magnitude or frequency where α equals 1, σ(Δ) is equivalent to the logarithmic value of the amplitude of a certain type of signal in a magnitude 0 earthquake monitored by a seismic station with an epicentral distance of Δ. It is also the amplitude-distance relationship model for a specific signal, which can be represented by an nth-order polynomial of the logarithmic value of the epicentral distance.
[0012] σ n (△)=b0+b1lg△+b2(lg△) 2 +…+b n (lg△) n +K△
[0013] Where b0, b1, ..., b nHere, k represents the polynomial coefficients. To compare the magnitude calculated from the Pn-wave signal, a measurement method with good regional portability and the ability to uniformly measure the intensity of earthquake focal sources in different regions under the same standard needs to be established. Magnitudes obtained from seismic signals with stable attenuation and simple attenuation correction generally have good regional portability.
[0014] Lg wave signals primarily propagate within the Earth's crust, exhibiting stable attenuation over large areas and minimal influence from directional variations in source radiation intensity, making them well-suited for measuring the source intensity of regional earthquakes. Numerous studies have shown that the attenuation of Lg wave signal amplitude excited by intracranial earthquakes can be expressed as:
[0015]
[0016] In the formula, A Lg (Δ, f) represents the signal amplitude of the Lg wave with dominant frequency f at a distance Δ from the epicenter, Δ0 is the reference distance, U is the average propagation velocity of the Lg wave, and Q(f) is the quality factor of the Lg wave with frequency f.
[0017] Select a reference distance (e.g., 10 km), and use the corresponding Q(f) to correct the amplitude of the Lg wave signal at different distances to the signal amplitude at the reference distance. Then, use the following formula to calculate the mb equivalent magnitude of the earthquake event:
[0018] mb Lg =5.0+log 10 (A Lg (△0,f) / C(f))
[0019] Where C(f) is the correction coefficient, corresponding to the amplitude of the Lg wave signal at the reference distance for a magnitude mb5.0 earthquake. This amplitude can be obtained from the earthquake event's reported magnitude and the observed Lg wave signal amplitude A. Lg (Δ0, f) is used for calibration.
[0020] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0022] Step 1: Designate the area where the seismic station is to be built as Area A. Based on the distance from Area A and the change in Lg wave attenuation, select a reference area and designate it as Area B.
[0023] Step 2: Collect the observed waveforms of earthquake events in region B, measure the amplitude of the Pn wave signal of the observed waveforms, and calculate the magnitude amplitude coefficient and source radiation intensity correction coefficient of the Pn wave signal to obtain the magnitude gauge function of the Pn wave signal in region B.
[0024] Step 3: Select earthquake events in region A. Based on the observed waveforms of earthquake events in region A monitored by seismic stations in region B, and the magnitude gauge function of the Pn wave signal in region B obtained in Step 2, calculate the equivalent magnitude of the Lg wave station for earthquake events in region A and the magnitude of the Pn wave station for earthquake events in region A monitored by seismic stations in region B.
[0025] Step 4: Calculate the magnitude difference between the equivalent magnitude of the earthquake event in region A (Lg wave station) and the magnitude of the earthquake event in region A (Pn wave station) monitored by the seismic station in region B.
[0026] Step 5: Using the Earth's background noise model or the background noise signal amplitude of seismic stations in other regions similar to the natural geography and human environment of region A, estimate the background noise amplitude of seismic stations in region A, and set the monitoring signal-to-noise ratio. Then, based on the magnitude gauge function of the Pn wave signal in region B obtained in step 2 and the magnitude difference obtained in step 4, calculate the nominal magnitude of the Pn wave signal of the earthquake event in region A monitored by the seismic stations in region B.
[0027] Step 6: Based on the magnitude difference obtained in Step 4 and the nominal magnitude of the Pn wave signal monitoring obtained in Step 5, calculate the magnitude threshold of the Pn wave signal monitoring for intracranial earthquakes in Region B by the seismic station in Region A.

Then, these values are fitted and regressed to obtain the magnitude gauge function of the Pn wave signal for earthquake events in region B.

[0051] Furthermore, step 2.4 specifically involves:

[0095] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the equivalent magnitude of the Lg wave station and the magnitude of the Pn wave station in an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation
[0096] The following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, provides a method for evaluating the magnitude threshold of Pn-wave signals from seismic stations based on the reciprocity principle, as proposed in this invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of this invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this invention.
[0097] A method for evaluating the magnitude threshold of Pn-wave signals from seismic stations based on the reciprocity principle, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes the following steps:
[0098] Step 1: Denote the area where the proposed seismic station will be built as Area A. Based on the distance from Area A and the Lg wave attenuation variation, select a reference area and denote it as Area B. There are M seismic stations in Area B, where M is an integer and M > 50.
[0099] The selection criteria for Region B are as follows: the epicentral distance from Region A is between 3° and 10°, the Lg wave attenuation is the same as in Region A, and the number of seismic stations is dense. The selection criteria for seismic events in Region B are as follows: the number of seismic stations monitoring the seismic events is greater than 50, the Pn wave and Lg wave phases are fully developed, and the magnitude range is greater than 2.5.
[0100] Step 2: Collect the observed waveforms of earthquake events in region B, measure the amplitude of the Pn wave signal of the observed waveforms, and calculate the magnitude amplitude coefficient and source radiation intensity correction coefficient of the Pn wave signal to obtain the magnitude gauge function of the Pn wave signal in region B.
[0101] To facilitate quantitative comparison with the magnitude thresholds monitored by existing seismic stations using Pn-wave signals, the intensity of the Pn-wave signal is converted into magnitude. Although different regions have established magnitude gauge functions for calculating magnitude using regional seismic signal amplitudes, these gauge functions are suitable for calculating magnitude using the maximum signal amplitude of the entire seismic signal train. For intracontinental earthquakes, the maximum amplitude signal monitored by regional seismic stations is generally an Lg wave; therefore, these magnitude gauge functions are not applicable to Pn-wave signals. It is necessary to establish an mb(Pn) magnitude gauge function suitable for Pn-wave signals. The specific steps of step 2 are as follows:
[0102] 2.1 Select J seismic events in region B, where J is an integer and J > 10.
[0103] 2.2 Select Q seismic stations within the region where the epicentral distance from J regional seismic events is less than 15°, and collect the observed waveforms of each regional seismic event at the Q seismic stations, where Q is an integer and Q > 50.
[0104] 2.3. Select K seismic stations from the Q seismic stations that have epicentral distances of 2.0°–15° from the J regional seismic events and that record Pn wave signals, where K is an integer and J ≤ K ≤ Q × J. Use five bandpass filters with passbands of 0.75Hz–1.5Hz, 2.0Hz–4.0Hz, 3.0Hz–6.0Hz, 4.0Hz–8.0Hz, and 8.0Hz–16.0Hz to filter the observed waveforms. Then calculate the Pn wave signal amplitude of the observed waveforms of the J regional seismic events monitored by the K seismic stations in different filter bands. The selection principle for the bandpass filters is: the passband of the bandpass filters is selected based on the relevant signal frequencies assessed according to the regional seismic monitoring capabilities. The specific steps of step 2.3 are as follows:
[0105] 2.3.1 Select K seismic stations from Q seismic stations that have Pn wave signal records and whose epicentral distance from J seismic events in region B is 2.0° to 15°. Here, K is an integer and J≤K≤Q×J. Then, mark the arrival time of the Pn wave signal and the arrival time of the subsequent follow-up signal on the observed waveforms of the J seismic events in region B monitored by the K seismic stations.
[0106] 2.3.2 Calculate the arrival time difference between the subsequent follow-up signal and the Pn wave signal, select the observed waveform with an arrival time difference greater than or equal to 5.0s, and record it as the seismic observation data;
[0107] 2.3.3 Perform instrument response correction on the seismic observation data to obtain the ground motion waveform in μm / s;
[0108] 2.3.4 Five bandpass filters with passbands of 0.75Hz~1.5Hz, 2.0Hz~4.0Hz, 3.0Hz~6.0Hz, 4.0Hz~8.0Hz and 8.0Hz~16.0Hz were used to filter the observed waveforms and the ground motion waveforms to obtain the ground motion waveforms of the J seismic events in region B monitored by K seismic stations in I filter frequency bands respectively.
