CAREER: Integrated Research and Education in Earthquake Triggering and Non-Volcanic Tremor

本CAREER提案旨在通过对地震触发和“非火山”地震的系统分析，为我们理解地震相互作用和断层滑动行为做出根本性贡献，该分析基于从EarthScope实验和其他美国永久地震台网以及东亚永久和临时地震部署收集的大量地震数据。该项目将通过各种培训课程和研究项目，培养能够分析大型地震数据的下一代地震学家。研究结果将通过声音化和可视化工具向大众传播。建议的任务包括：1。早期的余震。该研究人员将利用波形匹配滤波技术，在2008年中国汶川7.9级地震之后，以及最近在加利福尼亚和日本发生的几次大地震之后，立即探测和定位失踪的余震。新发现的地震事件将用于测试余震是由静态还是动态应力或其他时间相关机制引发的。远程触发：对美国西部活跃区以及中国大陆、美国中部和东部等相对稳定的板内地区的远程触发地震活动进行系统调查。我希望确定在活动区和板内区远程触发的必要条件和约束物理机制。非火山震动：以美国加州和台湾为中心的非火山震动系统研究。所获得的结果将用于更好地理解地震/地震事件中地震产生的物理机制以及积累的应变是如何释放的。4. 培养下一代地震学家。该研究人员将通过暑期实习项目和与本科院校的研究人员合作，为本科生提供许多研究机会。他将开发地震分析规范（SAC）和数据管理的在线教程和培训材料，可用于培训乔治亚理工学院和其他机构的高年级本科生和即将入学的研究生。地震数据的声化和可视化。有关地震触发及非火山性震颤的研究结果，将透过声波（即从地震图发出声音）及可视化的方式，向公众提供。此外，PI将与IRIS教育和推广（E&amp；O）专家合作，根据IRIS数据管理中心（DMC）存档的地震数据为重大事件生成声音和动画。

This CAREER proposal seeks to make fundamental contributions in our understanding of earthquake interaction and fault slip behaviors through systematic analysis of earthquake triggering and "non-volcanic" tremor, based on the large seismic data collected from the EarthScope experiment and other permanent seismic networks in the US, and permanent and temporary seismic deployments in East Asia. The project will prepare next-generation seismologists to be capable of analyzing large seismic data through various training courses and research projects. The research results will be dissimilated to general public through sonification and visualization tools.The proposed tasks include:1. Early aftershocks. The researcher will detect and locate missing aftershocks immediately after the 2008 Mw7.9 Wenchuan earthquake in China, and several recent large earthquakes in California and Japan, using a waveform matched filter technique. The newly identified events will be used to test whether aftershocks are triggered by static or dynamic stresses, or other time-dependent mechanisms.2. Remote triggering: a systematic survey of remotely triggered seismicity in active regions in the Western US, and relatively stable intraplate regions such as Continental China and the Central and Eastern US. I hope to identify necessary conditions and constrain physical mechanisms for remote triggering in active and intraplate regions.3. Non-volcanic tremor: a systematic study of non-volcanic tremor, focusing on California and Taiwan. The obtained results will be used to better understand the physical mechanisms of tremor generation and how accumulated strain is released in seismic/aseismic events. 4. Training next-generation seismologists. The researcher will provide many undergraduate research opportunities through summer internship programs, and collaborations with researchers in undergraduate institutions. He will develop an online tutorial and training material for Seismic Analysis Code (SAC) and data management, which can be used to train senior undergraduate and incoming graduate students in Georgia Tech and other institutions.5. Sonification and visualization of seismic data. Research results on earthquake triggering and non-volcanic tremor will be made accessible to general public through sonification (i.e., making sounds from seismograms) and visualization. In addition, the PI will work with IRIS Education and Outreach (E&O) specialists to generate sounds and animations for significant events based on seismic data archived at the IRIS Data Management Center (DMC).
