Detection and Identification of Near Seismic Events by SeisComP3 limited by a sparse distributed Seismic Network Thomas Burghardt, Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena 17. Januar 2013 User Group Meeting Potsdam GFZ
Contents • Configuration of the network • Which signals are measured and which features the measurement has • Examples for detected events • The reported events • Conclusion
The outer stations stabilize the localization of regional, Mediterranean and teleseismic events
The inner Stations are for the detection of the local events
The outer domain for Grid Search is the ^default configuration of SC3
The inner Grid Search has a dense grid point domain of R=0,0625° ca. 3000 Grid Points are investigated
Local earthquakes or mining events Mediterranean, Balcan Local blasts Teleseismic Events Local blasts or mining in Poland or northwest Germany Local blasts at Bavaria
Conclusion: There are different detection and location results at two computers with the same SC3 configuration. To my mind the cause depends on the not stabilized Grid Search Algorithm for near events and on the difficulties of LocSAT to localize teleseismic events with a regional velocity model.
Is the localization error less for a denser distribution of the stations in the network ?
Is answer seems to be no. Probably the influence of the S onsets and the unsufficient pick order provided by the Grid Search have a great portion to the false localization
Examples P- und S Onsets
Gräfenberg, Germany 05. Apr. 2012, blast SHM: 49,651 ; 11,406 , ML=1,7 S2: 49,84 ; 11,85 Neustadt am Kulm S1: 47,62 ; 12,82 Ramsau, Oberbayern wrong distant station TRPA (HU)
Swabian Alp, Albstadt, Germany, Earthquake • 02. Jan. 2013 19:55 EMSC: 48,24 ; 9,01 ML=2,3 • S2: south. Nürnberg: 49,16 ; 10,91 P Onsets, BFO is absent, but the pick exists • S1: S Onsets Near Cannes after relocation after put out of the far station: TRPA : 42,97 ; 6,03
S2: south Nürnberg, P-Onsets S1: Near Cannes, S-Onsets
S2: vp=6,18 ; vpk=6,97km/s S1: vp=5,15 ; vpk=8,06 km/s In spite of S Onsets vpk: velocity of LocSAT after determination the hypocenter
Freiburg/Breisgau, Germany, Earthquake • 01. Jan. 2013 05:48 EMSC: 48,37 ; 8,99 • ML=2,1 • S2: 48,30 ; 8,64 P Onsets • S1: 48,30 ; 8,63 P Onsets
The Station BFO near of Epicenter stabilized the Location vp=6,89, vpk=7,38km/s, Res. of BFO: -0,1
Plauen, Germany, Earthquake • 28. Dec. 2012 19:55 • SHM: 50,454 ; 12,225, ML=1,1,10,5km • S2: 50,46 ; 12,34 MLv=1,1 • S1: 50,45 ; 12,33 MLv=1,1 The best place for determination of hypocenter, because of the dense network
S1: Automatic Regression line vp=4,32, vpk=6,37km/s The automatical onsets are spreading much Regression line for manual Picks vp=6,64km/s
Legnica, Poland, 03. Jan. 2013, 22:25, mining event, EMSC: 51,39 ; 16,28 ML=2,9 • S2: 52,03 ; 19,77 P Onsets • S1: 48,73 ; 18,40 S Onsets
The emergent onsets are spreading much vp=7,36km/s, dev.fitting: 2,67s, bad location
False Station SMOL, S Onsets for network stations: 48,73 ; 18,4
Manually location by SHM, only with the S Onset of nearest Station the result is comparable to EMSC: 51,495 ; 15,904
Novy Kostel, Czech, 07. Jan. 2013, 17:19 Earthquake • SHM: 50,231 ; 12,452, ML=1,8 • S2: 50,24 ; 12,45 ML=1,9 • S1: 50,23 ; 12,47 ML=1,9
LocSAT gives some too high velocity: vpk=6,99km/s, vp=5,8km/s
The errors show the high velocity location, the S Onsets are shown clearly.
By the waveform the local earthquake is recognized distinctly
The spectra of earthquake has a max. At 20 Hz, in contrast to 4 Hz for the blast Novy Kostel, Earthquake Most, Blast
The regression line of Onsets are suitable for identifcation teleseismic events • Honshu, 29. Dec. 2012, 23:05 EMSC: 37,11 , 141,15 S2: 50,74 ; 13,67 187km s1: 50,85 ; 13,73 after removing Station SOP: 52,96 ; 17,00
Vp=20,29, vpk=20,57km/s before the removing SOP, the last station
