From the collected seismic data, we first determined the minimum completeness magnitude by combining qualitative and quantitative methods, such as the detection rate function, maximum curvature (MAXC) method, goodness of fit (GFT) method and magnitude-rank method. We used the stochastic declustering method based on the space-time ETAS model to obtain the background seismicity. We then implemented the accelerating moment release (AMR) model, the Ogata-Katsura 1993 (OK1993) model, the moment ratio (MR) model and the Region-Time-Length (RTL) algorithm. Finally, we analyzed the spatial migration of strong earthquakes. The completeness magnitude of the earthquake sequence does not significantly change with time, with the minimum completeness magnitude being 2.0 for the Zhangjiakou-Bohai tectonic zone. The results provided by the aforementioned seismic activity models allow us to detect some differences between sectors of the tectonic belt. The Zhangjiakou and Tangshan segments show a higher level of seismic hazard compared to the others, which have little chance of a strong earthquake occurring (weak release of seismic energy). The <i>b</i> value of the Zhangjiakou segment shows a stepwise downward trend, reflecting the gradual increase of stress accumulation level, and the hazard of moderate-strong earthquakes is increasing. Compared with the Tangshan and Penglai segments, the Zhangjiakou and Beijing sectors have a slightly higher MR index, which means that the rate of earthquake occurrence is increasing and thus the hazard of moderate to strong earthquakes. According to the RTL value, the deviation of seismic activity in the Zhangjiakou and Tangshan segments is relatively high, and there is a possibility of moderate to strong earthquakes in the future. Based on the results obtained from various seismicity models and the migration law of strong earthquakes, we can say that the overall seismic hazard for each sector of the Zhangjiakou-Bohai tectonic chain is low in terms of qualitative analysis. If anything, the Zhangjiakou segment, which is the section with the relatively high seismic hazard level, should require our attention in the future.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":16994,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Seismology","volume":"28 5","pages":"1309 - 1323"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141881370","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The simulation results show large-amplitude axial strain, shear strain, and rocking in the near-fault region. For the considered earthquakes, the maximum peak ground strain over all grid points is of the order of ~ 100–250 <i>μ</i>strain, whereas the maximum peak ground rocking ranges from ~ 100 to ~ 200 <i>μ</i>rad. The attenuation characteristics of peak ground strains and rotations differ for the considered seismic events and depend on the component of interest and the rupture distance. Finally, peak ground rocking can be reasonably estimated from peak vertical ground velocity using a properly selected scaling factor despite the significant variability of the latter in the near-fault region.

We selected 15 intermediate-depth earthquakes (100 km < h < 300 km) and 10 very deep earthquakes (h > 500 km) with magnitudes M<sub>W</sub> ≥ 6.0. For most events, the slip distribution over the rupture plane shows a single asperity, and the source time function presents a simple pulse.

The research recycles old seismic noise data recorded at 34 stations with 2 Hz instruments in the year 2010, supplemented with additional measurements recorded with broadband seismometers at nearby locations in the years 2013 and 2017. Initial traditional processing identifies a narrowband dominant frequency around 1.5 Hz, attributed to artificial or anthropogenic sources. To address this, the Maximum Entropy Algorithm was implemented to smooth the spectral response below 1 Hz, and filter out frequency peaks with very narrow spectral bands, while preserving the narrowband frequency around 1.5 Hz in some records. The Thomson Multitaper method further refined the spectral ratio, emphasizing the detection and suppression of narrow frequency bands that may be related to industrial activity. The results demonstrated the reappearance of the 1.5 Hz frequency, but this time without narrow bandwidths, indicating its possible correlation with the natural ground movement.

However, it requires an accurate estimation of the key parameters, such as earthquake locations and the velocity model of the region. Two separate studies performed by two organisations in India, the CSIR-National Geophysical Research Institute (NGRI) and the National Center for Seismology (NCS) reported significantly differing results from the first 8–12 months of earthquake monitoring in Palghar. CSIR-NGRI reported the depth of earthquakes in the range of 4–15 km, whereas NCS reported a much shallower depth down to 7 km only. We investigate the reason for this depth discrepancy by analysing datasets from the networks of both these organisations. We find that no available velocity models are able to reconcile the depth difference between the two datasets. Selection criteria generally adopted to determine a good velocity model, such as travel-time residuals and location errors, also failed to identify a suitable velocity model. Several synthetic tests helped us to identify that the network geometry and source-station separation are contributing factors to the observed depth difference. However, the main reason for the discrepancy was found to be inconsistent velocity models used for location at both networks. The main objective of our work is to estimate a velocity model which minimises the depth discrepancy between both datasets. In this regard, we synthetically generated hundreds of models with different V<sub>P</sub> and V<sub>P</sub>/V<sub>S</sub> ratios, followed by a grid search of V<sub>P</sub> and V<sub>P</sub>/V<sub>S</sub> ratios, which harmonises the location from the two datasets. The best model consists of a V<sub>P</sub> lying between 5.55–5.85 km/s and a V<sub>P</sub>/V<sub>S</sub> ratio between 1.77–1.81. For this velocity model, there is a greater overlap of the hypocentral clouds from both networks, and about 80% of the earthquakes of the CSIR-NGRI network were located within depths ≤ 7 km. We find that location errors vary seasonally, which is also related to the V<sub>P</sub>/V<sub>S</sub> of the crust.
