Abstract

Superconducting Gravimeter(SG) was installed and has been successfully operated at MunGyung, Kyungsang province in Korea in March 2005. It was registered as the 21st observatory of the Global Geodynamics Project. Since SG can precisely measure the gravity variations below the 1mHz frequency band, it has the outstanding capability to sense and resolve many different periodic gravity components from each other. From the raw data collected between 18 March 2005 and 21 February 2006 diurnal and semi-diurnal tidal band's residual gravity components were analyzed. During this process, the instrumental noises, air pressure, and ground water corrections were carried out. Values of $-3.18nm/s^2/hPa\;and\;17nm/s^2/m$ were used respectively in the air pressure and groundwater corrections. Hartmann-Wenzel and Whar-Dehant Earth tide models were adopted to compute the residual gravity for Q1, O1, P1, K1, M2, N2, S2, K2 tidal bands. For the ocean loading correction, SCW80, FES952, and FES02 models were used and compared. As a result, FES02 ocean loading model has shown the best match for the data processing at MunGyung SG MunGyung SG gravity was compared with GRACE satellite gravity. The correlation coefficient between the two gravity after groundwater correction was 0.628, which is higher than before ground water correction. To evaluate sensitivity at MunGyung SG gravity statition, the gravity data measured during 2005 Indodesian earthquake was compared with STS-2 broad band seismometer data. The result clearly revealed that the SG could recorded the same period of earthquake with seismometer event and a few after-shock events those were detected by seismometer.

2005년 3월 경상북도 문경에 설치된 초전도 중력계가 Global Geodynamics Project에 세계 21번째 관측소로 등록되어 현재 정상 운영 중에 있다. 미세한 중력변화를 1mHZ 이하의 저주파 영역에서 $10^{-2}nm/s^2$ 수준의 뛰어난 분해능으로 측정하는 초전도 중력계는 지구 중력의 다양한 주기의 지구중력변화를 감지하고 분석하는데 매우 효과적이다. 문경 초전도 중력 자료의 기초 분석을 위하여 2005년 3월 18일 부터 2006년 2월 21일 사이의 자료를 이용하여 일일주기와 반일주기 성분의 잔여중력을 계산하였다. 기계적 잡음을 제거한 후 기압 및 지하수 보정을 실시하였고, Hartmann-Wenzel 모델과 Whar-Dehant 모델을 이용하여 지구 조석을 보정하였으며 SCW80, FES952, FES2002 해양모델을 이용하여 ocean loading의 영향을 보정하였다. 초전도 중력자료의 신뢰도 검증을 위해 GRACE 인공위성에서 관측된 중력과 비교한 결과, 0.63의 상관관계를 보였다. 한편 2005년 발생한 인도네시아의 수마트라 지진자료를 광대역 지진계(STS-2)자료와 비교한 바, 지진계에서 관측되는 지진신호 및 여진이 감지됨을 확인할 수 있었다.
