On the electric field transient anomaly observed at the time of the Kythira M = 6 . 9 earthquake on January 2006

چکیده
The study of the Earth’s electromagnetic fields prior to the occurrence of strong seismic events has repeatedly revealed cases were transient anomalies, often deemed as possible earthquake precursors, were observed on electromagnetic field recordings of surface, atmosphere and near space carried out measurements. In an attempt to understand the nature of such signals several models have been proposed based upon the exhibited characteristics of the observed anomalies and different possible generation mechanisms, with electric earthquake precursors (EEP) appearing to be the main candidates for short-term earthquake precursors. This paper discusses the detection of a ULF electric field transient anomaly and its identification as a possible electric earthquake precursor accompanying the Kythira M=6.9 earthquake occurred on the 8 January 2006.

متن کاملAnomaly Detection in Time Series of Chlorophyll Around the Time and Location of Large Coastal Earthquakes Using Random Forest Method
Earthquake is one of the most devastating natural hazards which efforts to predict the time, location and magnitude of it have not been yet completely successful. Remote Sensing data is proved to be an effective source of information about lithospheric and atmospheric activities around the impending earthquakes which are referred to as earthquake precursors. The issue of detecting anomalies in ...
متن کاملAnomalous radon emanation linked to preseismic electromagnetic phenomena
Anomalous emanation of radon (222Rn) was observed preceding large earthquakes and is considered to be linked to preseismic electromagnetic phenomena (e.g. great changes of atmospheric electric field and ionospheric disturbances). Here we analyze atmospheric radon concentration and estimate changes of electrical conditions in atmosphere due to preseismic radon anomaly. The increase of radon eman...

Based on the third-order shear deformation theory (TSDT), this paper numerically investigates the natural frequencies and time response of three-layered annular plate with functionally graded materials (FGMs) sheet core and piezoelectric face sheets, under initial external electric voltage. The impressive material specifications of FGM core are assumed to vary continuously across the plate thic...
