Earthquake Prediction: Absence of a Precursive Change in Seismic Velocities before a Tremor of Magnitude 3frac34 | A McGarr
; | Date: |
20 Sep 1974 | Journal: | Science, 185 (4156), 1047-1049 | Abstract: | P-wave velocities in the region near the source of a tremor of magnitude 3(3/4) were constant to within 2 percent for 41 days before the event; no evidence of a precursive change in velocity was found. Observations of S-wave velocities and the ratio of P-wave to S-wave velocities also showed no precursive changes. In recent studies, premonitory changes in body-wave velocities of about 10 percent and having a duration of 2 to 3 weeks have been reported for crustal earthquakes of this size. | Source: | PubMed, pmid17738246 doi: 10.1126/science.185.4156.1047 | Services: | Forum | Review | Favorites |
