Abstract

We present a semi-analytic method that allows efficiently simulating acoustic-gravity waves (AGWs) excited by an earthquake source in a stratified lithosphere-atmosphere model. First, we introduce the surface harmonic vectors to transform the atmospheric governing equations and the elastodynamic equations from the frequency-space to frequency-wavenumber domain. Next, we compute the wavefields in the frequency-wavenumber domain using a global matrix method incorporating boundary conditions and the source contribution. Finally, we obtain the time-space responses through the wavenumber integration and fast Fourier transform. We use this method to investigate the characteristics of AGWs generated by an earthquake source. The results reveal two main types of AGWs: the epicenter AGW generated by seismic waves near the epicenter and the head AGWs generated by the seismic waves that travel along the free surface. The epicenter AGW shows lower frequency compared with the head waves. AGWs caused by earthquakes with different focal mechanisms exhibit different energy distributions. Particularly, both the epicenter and head AGWs caused by a vertical strike fault are weak along the strike direction. The epicenter AGW is very sensitive to the source depth comparing to the head AGW. We also find that the Earth structure has little effect on the epicenter AGW but a significant effect on the head AGWs. We use our method to simulate the ionospheric disturbance observed from the Doppler frequency shift data following the 2023 Turkey M 7.7 earthquake. The good agreement suggests that our method provides a good understanding of the lithospheric and atmospheric coupling.

2023m7.7土耳其地震声重力波模拟及电离层扰动解释
我们提出了一种半解析方法,可以在分层岩石圈-大气模型中有效地模拟震源激发的声重力波(AGWs)。首先,我们引入表面谐波矢量将大气控制方程和弹性动力方程从频率空间域转换到频率波数域。接下来,我们使用结合边界条件和源贡献的全局矩阵方法计算频率-波数域的波场。最后,通过波数积分和快速傅里叶变换得到了时域响应。我们用这种方法研究了震源产生的agw的特征。研究结果揭示了两种主要类型的AGW:震中附近地震波产生的震中AGW和沿自由表面传播的地震波产生的头部AGW。与头波相比,震中AGW的频率较低。不同震源机制地震引起的AGWs能量分布不同。特别是,垂直走向断层引起的震中和头部AGWs沿走向方向都较弱。与头部AGW相比,震中AGW对震源深度非常敏感。地球结构对震中AGW的影响较小,但对头部AGW的影响较大。我们用我们的方法模拟了2023年土耳其7.7级地震后多普勒频移观测到的电离层扰动。这种良好的一致性表明我们的方法提供了对岩石圈和大气耦合的良好理解。
