An attempt to find precursors in the ULF geomagnetic data by means of flicker noise spectroscopy
نویسندگان
چکیده
The flicker noise spectroscopy which is a new phenomenological method for the retrieval of information contained in chaotic time signals, is based on the analysis of recognizable irregularities (pulse, jumps, and discontinuities of derivatives of various order). This method is applied to the ULF (ultra-low-frequency) data observed at Guam in 1992– 1994, in order to study the temporal nonlinear behavior of the lithospheric activity prior to the large 1993 Guam earthquake (8 August 1993). We have found that the lithosphere must have exhibited the step-like discontinuous behaviors in the lithosphere 101, 78, 54, 31 and 8 days before the main shock. This kind of nonlinear temporal behavior can be tracked by means of our flicker noise spectroscopy.

Fractal analysis of the ULF geomagnetic data obtained at Izu Peninsula, Japan in relation to the nearby earthquake swarm of June?August 2000
In our recent papers we applied fractal methods to extract the earthquake precursory signatures from scaling characteristics of the ULF geomagnetic data, obtained in a seismic active region of Guam Island during the large earthquake of 8 August 1993. We found specific dynamics of their fractal characteristics (spectral exponents and fractal dimensions) before the earthquake: appearance of the f...
متن کاملScaling characteristics of ULF geomagnetic fields at the Guam seismoactive area and their dynamics in relation to the earthquake
The long-term evolution of scaling (fractal) characteristics of the ULF geomagnetic fields in the seismoactive region of the Guam Island is studied in relation to the strong (Ms = 8.0) nearby earthquake of 8 August 1993. The selected period covers 10 months before and 10 months after the earthquake. The FFT procedure, Burlaga-Klein approach and Higuchi method, have been applied to calculate the...
متن کاملImproving the Method of Location Identification and Determining the Effect of Each Flicker Source in Distribution Networks
Voltage flicker phenomenon is one of the main power quality problems in today's power networks. Before any compensation operation for this phenomenon, the location of each flicker sources must be identified and the effect of each of them on the network flicker value must be determined. Also, methods that require least number of monitoring points are more in demand due to the limitations of meas...
متن کاملInvestigation of the effects of geomagnetic storms on ionospheric irregularities using the combination of ground-based GNSS and SWARM satellites
Geomagnetic storms are one of the main causes of ionospheric perturbations in different sizes, depending on their intensity, which could disturb radio signals passing through this medium. On September 6-12, 2017, the sudden storm commencement (SSC) was the most massive geomagnetic storm of the year due to the X9 solar flare caused by a coronal mass ejection (CME). IMF-Bz and Dst values increase...
متن کاملNon-linear stochastic inversion of regional Bouguer anomalies by means of Particle Swarm Optimization: Application to the Zagros Mountains
Estimating the lateral depth variations of the Earth’s crust from gravity data is a non-linear ill-posed problem. The ill-posedness of the problem is due to the presence of noise in the data, and also the non-uniqueness of the problem. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is a stochastic population-based optimizer, originally inspired by the social behavior of fish schools and bird flocks. PSO is ...
