Abstract
The cumulative absolute absement (CAA) of the 3 s window after P-wave arrival can be used to estimate the magnitude ( $${M}_{CAA}$$ ) of an earthquake. This method can achieve good results even when only the six stations nearest to the epicenter are used. The standard deviation between the estimated CAA magnitude ( $${M}_{CAA}$$ ) and the moment magnitude ( $${M}_{w}$$ ) is found to be 0.3 when using either 6 or 20 stations. This means that $${M}_{CAA}$$ can be reliably predicted using the closest 6 stations. On the other hand, the magnitude ( $${M}_{Pd}$$ ) derived from $${P}_{d}$$ using the closest 20 stations has a standard deviation of 0.4 between the estimated $${M}_{Pd}$$ and $${M}_{w}$$ . This suggests that CAA is a better magnitude determination parameter for the EEW system than $${P}_{d}$$ .

期刊介绍:
Geoscience Letters is the official journal of the Asia Oceania Geosciences Society, and a fully open access journal published under the SpringerOpen brand. The journal publishes original, innovative and timely research letter articles and concise reviews on studies of the Earth and its environment, the planetary and space sciences. Contributions reflect the eight scientific sections of the AOGS: Atmospheric Sciences, Biogeosciences, Hydrological Sciences, Interdisciplinary Geosciences, Ocean Sciences, Planetary Sciences, Solar and Terrestrial Sciences, and Solid Earth Sciences. Geoscience Letters focuses on cutting-edge fundamental and applied research in the broad field of the geosciences, including the applications of geoscience research to societal problems. This journal is Open Access, providing rapid electronic publication of high-quality, peer-reviewed scientific contributions.
