Analysis of Volcanic Seismic Events from Kilauea Recorded byan Array of 90 Digital Seismographs

该项目的重点是一个独特的地震数据集， 美国国家科学基金会早些时候的一项拨款，来自中东裂谷地带的基拉韦厄， 1988年夏威夷的一座火山在喷发阶段。 初步 对这些数据的分析揭示了许多复杂的信号 与气体和岩浆的相互作用有关。 拟议的项目是 通过尝试扩展早期对共振模型的研究， 真实地融合了岩浆中气泡的效果。 这 研究可应用于基本了解 火山爆发的物理学，因此是一个基本的 对火山灾害研究的贡献。

This project focuses on a unique seismic data set, funded under an earlier NSF grant, from the middle east rift zone of Kilauea volcano in Hawaii during an eruptive phase in 1988. Preliminary analysis of these data reveals a number of complex signals related to gas and magma interaction. The proposed project is to extend earlier research on resonance models by attempting to realistically incorporate the effects of bubbles in magma. This research has application to the basic understanding of the physics of volcanic eruption and is therefore a fundamental contribution to the study of volcanic hazards.
