Magnitude and sign scaling in power-law correlated geoelectrical time series measured in southern Italy
نویسنده
چکیده
Recently, it has been proposed a new method to investigate the linear/nonlinear properties of a time series by decomposing it into two sub-series: magnitude and sign sub-series (Ashkenazy et al., 2003). The long-range correlation properties of the magnitude and sign sub-series relate to nonlinear and linear behavior of the original time series respectively. We apply this method to the hourly time variability of geoelectrical signals, measured from January 2001 to September 2002 by four stations installed in Basilicata region (southern Italy). Three stations (Giuliano, Marsico and Tito) are located in a seismic area, and one (Laterza) in a lowseismicity area. A site-dependence of the linear/nonlinear properties has been shown, revealing that different dynamics govern signals measured in seismic and low-seismicity areas.

Spurious Results of Fluctuation Analysis Techniques in Magnitude and Sign Correlations
Fluctuation Analysis (FA) and specially Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA) are techniques commonly used to quantify correlations and scaling properties of complex time series such as the observable outputs of great variety of dynamical systems, from Economics to Physiology. Often, such correlated time series are analyzed using the magnitude and sign decomposition, i.e., by using FA or DFA to ...
متن کاملMultifractal variability in geoelectrical signals and correlations with seismicity: a study case in southern Italy
Multifractal fluctuations in the time dynamics of geoelectrical data, recorded in a seismic area of southern Italy, have been revealed using the Multifractal Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (MF-DFA), which allows to detect multifractality in nonstationary signals. Our findings show that the geoelectrical time series, recorded in the seismic area of southern Apennine Chain (Italy), is multifracta...
متن کاملMagnitude and sign scaling in power-law correlated time series
A time series can be decomposed into two sub-series: a magnitude series and a sign series. Here we analyze separately the scaling properties of the magnitude series and the sign series using the increment time series of cardiac interbeat intervals as an example. We 6nd that time series having identical distributions and long-range correlation properties can exhibit quite di8erent temporal organ...

Geoelectrical fluctuations are the end product of several geophysical phenomena. In particular geoelectrical signals measured in seismically active areas can be attributed to stress and strain changes, associated with earthquakes. The complexity of this problem has suggested the development of advanced statistical methods to investigate the heterogeneous nature of these fluctuations. In this pa...

We review a recently developed approach for analyzing time series with long-range correlations by decomposing the signal increment series into magnitude and sign series and analyzing their scaling properties. We show that time series with identical long-range correlations can exhibit different time organization for the magnitude and sign. We apply our approach to series of time intervals betwee...
