  • The b-value in the magnitude-frequency relationship logN(m) = $\alpha$ - bmwhere N(m) is the number of earthquakes exceeding magnitude m, is important seismicity parameter In hazard analysis. Estimation of the b-value for earthquake data observed on KSRS array network is done employing the maximum likelihood technique. Assuming the whole Korea Peninsula as a single seismic source area, the b-value is computed at 0.9. The estimation for KMA earthquake data is also similar to that. Since estimate is a function of minimum magnitude, we can inspect the completeness of earthquake catalog in the fitting process of b-value. KSRS and KMA data lists are probably incomplete for magnitudes less than 2.0 and 3.0, respectively. Examples from probabilistic seismic hazard assessment calculated for a range of b-value show that the small change of b-value has seriously effect on the prediction of ground motion.

  • 원주 KSRS 지진관측망을 이용하여 한반도 및 주변지역의 인공지진원을 식별하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 신호대 잡음비가 높은 자연지진 150개와 인공지진 56개를 선별하여 표본 집단을 형성하였다. 2차원 Pg/Lg 스펙트럼 진폭 비의 격자를 구성하여 지진원 식별이 용이한 최적의 주파수 영역으로 Pg(4-6 Hz)/Lg(5-7 Hz)을 도출하였다. 스펙트럼으로 부터 진폭에 대한 지진 규모와 진원 거리의 영향을 보정함으로써 식별 능력을 향상시키고자 하였다. 지진모멘트에 대한 모서리주파수의 역비례 관계로 인한 규모 의존 효과를 보정하기 위하여, Brune의 진원 모델을 가정한 이론 스펙트럼을 관측 스펙트럼에서 제거하였다. 진원 거리에 따른 감쇠효과를 제거하기 위하여, 최적의 감쇠상수를 계산하여 스펙트럼을 보정하였다. 지진파 전파 경로에 대한 보정으로 지역에 따라 스펙트럼 진폭 비가 달라지는 효과를 제거하였다. 자연지진과 인공지진 표본 집단 사이의 식별 정도를 각 보정 단계에서 Mahalanobis 거리 계산을 통하여 비교하였다. 규모와 거리 및 경로 보정 전후 두 표본 집단 사이의 Mahalanobis 거리가 1.98에서 3.01로 증가하여 식별 결과에 뚜렷한 향상이 있었다.

  • Instrumental observation of earth quakes in KIGAM was first attempted in the earty 1980`s by using 6 portable seismographs in the vicinity of Yang-San Faults. Now twenty-four permanent stations, which are equipped with short-period or broad-band seismometer, are included in seismic research network in KIGAM, including KSRS array station in Wonju which is consisted of 26 bore-hole stations. The seismic network of KIGAM is also linked to that of KEPRI(Korea Electric Power Research Institute)which is consisted of eight stations installed within and around the nuclear power plants. Owing to real-time data acquisition by telemetry, it became feasible to automatically locate hypocenters of the local events within fifteen minutes by computer data processing system, named KEMS(Korea Earthquake Monitoring System). Results of the hypocenter determination, together with observational data, are compiled and stored in the data base system. And they are published via web site whose URL is http://quake.kigam.re.kr KIGAM is also running t재 permanent geomagnetic stations installed in Daejun and Kyungju. The observed geomagnetic data are transmitted to Earthquake Research Centre in KIGAM by seismic network and compiled for the purpose of earthquake prediction research and other basic geophysical research.

  • When tsunami waves propagate across open ocean they are steered by Coriolis force and refraction due to gentle gradients in the bathymetry on scales longer than the wavelength. When the wave encounters steep gradients at the edges of continental shelves and at the coast, the wave becomes non-linear and conservation of momentum produces squirts of surface current at the head of submerged canyons and in coastal bays. HF coastal ocean radar is well-conditioned to observe the current bursts at the edge of the continental shelf and give a warning of 40 minutes to 2 hours when the shelf is 50-200km wide. The period of tsunami waves is invariant over changes in bathymetry and is in the range 2-30 minutes. Wavelengths for tsunamis (in 500-3000 m depth) are in the range 8.5 to over 200 km and on a shelf where the depth is about 50 m (as in the Great Barrier Reef) the wavelengths are in the range 2.5 - 30 km. It is shown that the phased array HF ocean surface radar being deployed in the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) and operating in a routine way for mapping surface currents, can resolve surface current squirts from tsunamis in the wave period range 20-30 minutes and in the wavelength range greater than about 6 km. There is a trade-off between resolution of surface current speed and time resolution. If the radar is actively managed with automatic intervention during a tsunami alert period (triggered from the global seismic network) then it is estimated that the time resolution of the GBR radar may be reduced to about 2 minutes, which corresponds to a capability to detect tsunamis at the shelf edge in the period range 5-30 minutes. It is estimated that the lower limit of squirt velocity detection at the shelf edge would correspond to a tsunami with water elevation of less than 5 cm in the open ocean. This means that the GBR HF radar is well-conditioned for use as a monitor of small and medium scale tsunamis, and has the potential to contribute to the understanding of tsunami genesis research.
