Abstract
Comparison of the spectral characteristics of ground vibrations from earthquakes with the level of seismic ambient noise in a wide range of periods makes it possible to assess the possibilities of seismic networks, taking into account the local conditions for the location of seismic stations. Based on the probabilistic approach, which allows one to estimate the statistical parameters of seismic variations in the frequency domain, a model of seismic ambient noise for the southeastern shore of Lake Baikal was developed. The study of the spectral characteristics of seismic waves was carried out on the basis of records of earthquakes in the Baikal rift zone with 3.5 ≤ M ≤ 6.9 that occurred during 2017–2022. The spectral characteristics of shear waves from earthquakes were calculated using bandpass filtering in nonoverlapping octave bands. Comparison of the calculated spectral characteristics of seismic vibrations from earthquakes with seismic ambient noise model made it possible to evaluate the possibilities of three broadband seismic stations. The approach can be used to select optimal equipment in terms of its characteristics, taking into account the local conditions for the location of stations.
期刊介绍:
Seismic Instruments is a journal devoted to the description of geophysical instruments used in seismic research. In addition to covering the actual instruments for registering seismic waves, substantial room is devoted to solving instrumental-methodological problems of geophysical monitoring, applying various methods that are used to search for earthquake precursors, to studying earthquake nucleation processes and to monitoring natural and technogenous processes. The description of the construction, working elements, and technical characteristics of the instruments, as well as some results of implementation of the instruments and interpretation of the results are given. Attention is paid to seismic monitoring data and earthquake catalog quality Analysis.
