Zusammenfassung |
The statistical analysis of the characteristic frequency foF2 of the Earth's
ionosphere averaged over mid-day hours – from 11:00 till 17:00 h LT – is
carried out. Disturbances of foF2 connected to earthquakes are considered on
the background of seasonal, geomagnetic, 11-years and 27-days solar
variations. A special normalized parameter F is introduced, which
represents the almost seasonal-independent part of foF2. Days with high solar
(Wolf number >100) and geomagnetic (∑Kp>30) activity are
excluded from the analysis. Events with magnitude M>5, distance from
the sounding station R<500 km and depth h<70 km are taken into
account. The superimposed epoches' method is used to determine the temporal
dependence of F. It is found that F increases about 3–6 days before
the earthquakes and then decreases one day – two days before the shock. The
decreased values of F continue to exist two-three days after events with
M>5.5. The obtained phenomenon depends on the magnitude of the
earthquake. For events with M>5.5, the reliability of the effect is
larger than 95%. For data of more than 80 earthquakes in the vicinity of
Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky and more than 200 earthquakes in the vicinity of
Tokyo analogous results are obtained. |
