  • Integration of Knowledge and Data in Active Seismology1
    Integration of Knowledge and Data in Active Seismology1 Ludmila P. Braginskaya, Andrey P. Grigoruk, Valery V. Kovalevsky Institute of Computational Mathematics and Mathematical Geophysics SB RAS (ICM&MG SB RAS), Novosibirsk, Russia, [email protected] Abstract. The paper presents the principles of organization of an information environment providing a holistic view of the subject area and various aspects of scientific activity in active seismology. The subject ontology “Active Seismology” is used as a conceptual basis and information model. Keywords: active seismology, ontology, knowledge portal 1 Introduction Since the 1970s a new direction in geophysics has been developing, which has recently been called active seismology, based on powerful controlled vibration sources of seismic waves of the low-frequency range [1]. The use of such sources has opened up new possibilities for investigations of the deep structure of Earth's crust and upper mantle and the geodynamic processes in earthquake-prone and volcanic zones. The active seismology methods have found application in new areas of geophysics and geophysical engineering. Currently, the following new vibrational geotechnologies are being actively developed: active vibroseismic monitoring of earthquake-prone and volcanic zones; vibroseismic action on oil formations to increase oil recovery; vibrational microseismic zoning; study of the stability of deep structures in areas of construction and operation of environmentally hazardous constructions, etc. During the formation and development of the active seismology methods, numerous theoretical and experimental works have been carried out to substantiate the vibroseismic method, to study the processes of radiation of seismic waves by vibrational sources, the characteristics of their wave fields and physical effects under the vibrational action on the geological medium [2].

  • Coulomb Stress Accumulation Along the San Andreas Fault System
    JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 108, NO. B6, 2296, doi:10.1029/2002JB002136, 2003 Coulomb stress accumulation along the San Andreas Fault system Bridget Smith and David Sandwell Institute for Geophysics and Planetary Physics, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, La Jolla, California, USA Received 2 August 2002; revised 16 January 2003; accepted 18 February 2003; published 11 June 2003. [1] Stress accumulation rates along the primary segments of the San Andreas Fault system are computed using a three-dimensional (3-D) elastic half-space model with realistic fault geometry. The model is developed in the Fourier domain by solving for the response of an elastic half-space due to a point vector body force and analytically integrating the force from a locking depth to infinite depth. This approach is then applied to the San Andreas Fault system using published slip rates along 18 major fault strands of the fault zone. GPS-derived horizontal velocity measurements spanning the entire 1700 Â 200 km region are then used to solve for apparent locking depth along each primary fault segment. This simple model fits remarkably well (2.43 mm/yr RMS misfit), although some discrepancies occur in the Eastern California Shear Zone. The model also predicts vertical uplift and subsidence rates that are in agreement with independent geologic and geodetic estimates. In addition, shear and normal stresses along the major fault strands are used to compute Coulomb stress accumulation rate. As a result, we find earthquake recurrence intervals along the San Andreas Fault system to be inversely proportional to Coulomb stress accumulation rate, in agreement with typical coseismic stress drops of 1–10 MPa.

  • International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (Iugg)
    Annual Report for 2005 of the INTERNATIONAL UNION OF GEODESY AND GEOPHYSICS (IUGG) INTRODUCTION Established in 1919, the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG) is the international organization dedicated to advancing, promoting, and communicating knowledge of the Earth system, its space environment, and the dynamical processes causing change. Through its constituent Associations, Commissions, and services, IUGG convenes international assemblies and workshops, undertakes research, assembles observations, gains insights, coordinates activities, liaises with other scientific bodies, plays an advocacy role, contributes to education, and works to expand capabilities and participation worldwide. Data, information, and knowledge gained are made openly available for the benefit of society – to provide the information necessary for the discovery and responsible use of natural resources, sustainable management of the environment, reducing the impact of natural hazards, and to satisfy our need to understand the Earth’s natural environment and the consequences of human activities. IUGG Associations and Union Commissions encourage scientific investigation of Earth science and especially interdisciplinary aspects. Each Association establishes working groups and commissions that can be accessed by using the links on our website. The web site, available in English and French, can be found at http://www.IUGG.org. MEMBERSHIP By their very nature, geodetic and geophysical studies require a high degree of international co-operation. IUGG is critically dependent on the scientific and financial support of its member Adhering Bodies. The list of present and past IUGG Adhering Bodies is published annually in the IUGG Yearbook, which is posted on the web site and is available from the Secretariat. Each Adhering Body establishes a National Committee for IUGG, and names Correspondents to each Association (as appropriate).

E-mail: [email protected] Accepted 2012 January 11. Received 2012 January 11; in original form 2011 May 3 SUMMARY A recently developed method of constructing core field models that satisfies a frozen-flux constraint is used to built a field model covering 1957–2008. Like the previous model C3FM, we invert observatory secular variation data and adopt satellite-based field models to constrain the field morphology in 1980 and 2004. To derive a frozen-flux field model, we start from a field model that has been derived using ‘classical’ techniques, which is spatially and temporally smooth. This is achieved by using order six B-splines as basis functions for the temporal evolution of the Gauss coefficients and requiring that the model minimizes the integral of the third-time derivative of the field taken over the core surface. That guarantees a robust estimate of the secular acceleration. Comparisons between the ‘classical’ and the frozen-flux field models are given, and we describe to what extend the frozen-flux constraint is adhered.

Geophysical flows and the effects of a strong surface tension Francesco Fanelli Institut Camille Jordan - UMR CNRS 5208 Université de Lyon, Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1 Bâtiment Braconnier 43, Boulevard du 11 novembre 1918 F-69622 Villeurbanne cedex – FRANCE [email protected] May 31, 2016 Abstract In the present note we review some recent results for a class of singular perturbation problems for a Navier-Stokes-Korteweg system with Coriolis force. More precisely, we study the asymptotic behaviour of solutions when taking incompressible and fast rotation limits simultaneously, in a constant capillarity regime. Our main purpose here is to explain in detail the description of the phenomena we want to capture, and the mathematical derivation of the system of equations. Hence, a huge part of this work is devoted to physical considerations and mathematical modeling.
