Foreshock compressional boundary

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2009
We employ 2.5‐D electromagnetic, hybrid simulations that treat ions kinetically via particle‐in‐cell methods and electrons as a massless fluid to study the formation and properties of a newly discovered boundary named the foreshock compressional boundary (FCB).

Frequency of foreshocks

Nature, 1976
IN February 1975, the Chinese Seismological Bureau successfully predicted a magnitude 7.3 earthquake near Haicheng, Liaoning Province. From their reports, it is obvious that many methods such as radon count, abnormal animal behaviour, seismic velocity, and tilt and telluric current anomalies were considered in making the long term prediction1.

A study of ULF wave foreshock morphology—I: ULF foreshock boundary

Planetary and Space Science, 1992
Abstract We have used ISEE 1 and 2 magnetometer data to determine the forward boundary of the upstream ULF wave foreshock. We first examine the presence and absence of ULF waves immediately upstream from the bow shock. The statistical results show that the ULF foreshock starts at θBn ∼ 50° on the bow shock, and fills the entire upstream region ...

Foreshocks and earthquake prediction

Tectonophysics, 1972
Abstract If a group of foreshocks can be distinguished from ordinary seismic activities, it would contribute to earthquake prediction. In the case of two Japanese earthquakes, which were preceded by immediate foreshocks, the coefficient “b” in the magnitude versus frequency equation was significantly smaller than that of the aftershocks or of the ...

The electron foreshock

Advances in Space Research, 1995
An overview of the observations of backstreaming electrons in the foreshock and the mechanisms that have been proposed to explain their properties will be presented. A primary characteristic of observed foreshock electrons is that their velocity distributions are spatially structured in a systematic way depending on distance from the magnetic field ...

MMS observations of wave activity in the particle foreshock bubble foreshock region

2020
<p>Foreshock bubbles (FBs) are kinetic transient phenomena formed due to the interaction between IMF discontinuities and backstreaming energetic ions in Earth’s foreshock region. FBs can be driven by both rotational discontinuities and tangential discontinuities and are typically observed under higher solar wind ...

Volcanic earthquake foreshocks during the 2018 collapse of Kīlauea Caldera

Geophysical Journal International, 2019
The summit collapse of the Kīlauea Caldera—due to magma chamber drainage being directed to the Volcano's lower east rift zone—was accompanied by 50 large, nearly identical magnitude Mw 5 earthquakes between 29 May and 2 August 2 2018.

Foreshocks of strong earthquakes

Izvestiya, Physics of the Solid Earth, 2014
The specific enhancement of ultra-low-frequency (ULF) electromagnetic oscillations a few hours prior to the strong earthquakes, which was previously mentioned in the literature, motivated us to search for the distinctive features of the mechanical (foreshock) activity of the Earth’s crust in the epicentral zones of the future earthquakes. Activation of

Foreshocks and earthquake prediction

Tectonophysics, 1975
Abstract Results of a statistical investigation of the magnitude and time distributions of foreshocks in the area of Greece are reported. Further evidence is presented that the parameter b , in the frequency—magnitude relation, has a smaller value before than after the main shock, and that the time distribution of foreshocks follows a statistical ...

Foreshock Occurrence in Central California

Seismological Research Letters, 1979
The hypocentral regions of 29 (M ≥ 3.5) earthquakes along the San Andreas fault system in central California have been systematically examined for increased microearthquake activity preceding the main shock. Of 20 shallow (h > 9 km) main events, 10 were preceded by an apparent buildup of seismic activity.
