项目摘要
Earthquakes are typically generated by rapid slip, or dynamic rupture, on pre-existing faults inside the Earth, loaded by tectonic plate motion. While large, destructive ruptures occur only rarely, much smaller events, often called microseismicity, occur much more often, with the vast majority of them not felt by people. However, the surface motion due to these much smaller events can be recorded by sensitive instruments called seismometers and analyzed to reveal their location and properties. In fact, microseismicity provides us with a unique window into the stress environment, structure, and physical properties of the Earth's crust and their changes over time. In California, for example, most of microseismicity occurs in the same depth range that is expected to host large, destructive events. However, the ground motions recorded for the microseismicity are currently analyzed based on relatively simple models of earthquake sources from several decades ago. The rapid recent progress in computing, laboratory experiments, and observations has enabled us to create much more realistic numerical models of how these microearthquake ruptures might occur. This study will use new numerical models of microseismicity to advance understanding and improve information about the properties of the crust, gained through the important window of microseismicity studies, while advancing our understanding of fault mechanics and of realistic sources of microseismicity. The resulting insight into earthquake physics will contribute to the physics-based simulation capability for seismic hazard analysis. These results may benefit the society at large.The project will advance understanding of several scientifically and practically important types of microearthquake sources, such as foreshock-like events, repeating earthquakes, ruptures of heterogeneous patches, and fluid-injection-induced events, by producing and analyzing the synthetic far-field seismograms of their dynamic models. The goals are to (i) determine how well the synthetic spectra are fit with the currently used expressions based on the simple models, determine source parameters using the existing seismological approaches, and study how they relate to the actual source properties that can be determine from these models; (ii) look for seismological signatures that would indicate that the sources in question are more complex than the basic seismological assumptions, and potentially distinguish between several characteristic types of sources; and (iii) investigate the possibility of creating alternative approaches to seismological source-parameter estimates for such sources, using models more consistent with the specific seismological signatures identified. The study will examine whether different types of sources can be associated with a typical set of parameters in the currently used spectral fitting expressions, or whether some of them require more advanced approaches such as two-corner-frequency functions. It will also look at how the spectral properties for different types of sources vary over the focal sphere and consider differences between P- and S-wave spectra, which may be different for different types of sources. The research will potentially enable observational scientists to conduct more detailed seismological studies in areas with suitable station coverage, knowledge of the structure, and data quality. The results of the proposed activities will be broadly disseminated. Several graduate and undergraduate students, including from groups that are underrepresented in science, will gain valuable research and teaching experience carrying out the proposed interdisciplinary activities. In addition, a wider group of students will be educated about the issues involved in this research through course projects in two relevant courses taught by the researcher.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
地震通常是由地球内部已经存在的断层在构造板块运动的作用下发生快速滑动或动态破裂而产生的。虽然大的、破坏性的破裂很少发生,但小得多的事件,通常被称为微地震活动,发生的频率要高得多,其中绝大多数是人们感觉不到的。然而,由这些小得多的事件引起的地表运动可以被称为地震仪的敏感仪器记录下来,并进行分析,以揭示它们的位置和性质。事实上,微震活动为我们了解地壳的应力环境、结构和物理性质及其随时间的变化提供了一个独特的窗口。例如,在加利福尼亚,大多数微震活动发生在预计会发生大型破坏性事件的同一深度范围内。然而,微震活动记录的地面运动目前是基于几十年前相对简单的震源模型来分析的。最近在计算、实验室实验和观察方面的快速进展使我们能够创建更真实的数值模型来解释这些微地震破裂是如何发生的。本研究将利用新的微震活动性数值模型,通过微震活动性研究的重要窗口,促进对地壳性质的理解和改进信息,同时促进我们对断层力学和微震活动性现实来源的理解。由此产生的对地震物理的洞察将有助于地震危害分析的基于物理的模拟能力。这些结果可能会使整个社会受益。该项目将通过生成和分析其动态模型的合成远场地震图,促进对几种科学上和实践上重要的微震源类型的理解,如类前震事件、重复地震、非均质斑块破裂和流体注入诱发事件。目标是(i)确定基于简单模型的合成谱与当前使用的表达式的拟合程度,使用现有的地震学方法确定震源参数,并研究它们与可以从这些模型确定的实际震源属性的关系;(ii)寻找表明所讨论的震源比基本地震学假设更复杂的地震特征,并可能区分几种特征类型的震源;(iii)研究创建地震震源参数估计替代方法的可能性,使用与确定的特定地震特征更一致的模型。该研究将检查不同类型的源是否可以与当前使用的频谱拟合表达式中的一组典型参数相关联,或者其中一些是否需要更先进的方法,如双角频率函数。它还将研究不同类型的源的光谱特性如何在焦球上变化,并考虑P波和s波光谱之间的差异,这对于不同类型的源可能是不同的。这项研究将有可能使观测科学家能够在具有适当台站覆盖、结构知识和数据质量的地区进行更详细的地震学研究。拟议活动的结果将广泛传播。一些研究生和本科生,包括来自科学领域代表性不足的群体的学生,将在开展拟议的跨学科活动中获得宝贵的研究和教学经验。此外,更广泛的学生群体将通过研究人员教授的两门相关课程的课程项目来了解本研究中涉及的问题。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命,并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估,被认为值得支持。
