Collaborative Research: Near-Field Volcano Infrasound: Three-dimensional Seismo-Acoustic Wave Propagation

一个详细的，现实的程序来模拟三维，地震声波传播从火山爆发在近场是通过结合理论计算和现场观测。 通过在厄瓜多尔通古拉瓦火山的15站30单元阵列上记录爆炸，建立了基于风切变和地形效应模型的理论预测试验。 全波形模拟与地形的三维分布的现实表示被用来模拟声波在大气中的传播以及弹性波在地球中的传播。 对于爆炸，可以从声波导出震源时间函数，以从高保真地震波记录中去卷积震源效应。 地震信号用于提取火山建筑物和管道中的详细地质结构，以及熔化百分比、粘度和气-液-固相分配等物理参数。

A detailed, realistic program to model three-dimensional, seismo-acoustic wave propagation from an exploding volcano in the near field is achieved by combining theoretical calculations and field observations. A test of theoretical predictions based on models of wind shear and topographic effects is established by recording explosions on a 15 station 30 element array at Tungurahua Volcano, Ecuador. Full waveform simulations with realistic representations of three-dimensional distributions of topography are used to model acoustic wave propagation in the atmosphere as well as elastic wave propagation in the earth. For explosions, source time functions may be derived from acoustic waves to deconvolve source effects from hi-fidelity seismic wave recordings. Seismic signals are used to extract detailed geologic structure in the volcano edifice and conduit, as well as physical parameters such as melt percentage, viscosity, and partitioning of gas-fluid-solid phases.
