Pre-earthquake Schumann Resonance Anomaly in Yunnan
摘要
There is a good correlation between anomalous Schumann resonance and seismic activities. Pre-earthquake anomalous Schumann resonance is an important manifestation of LAIC (Lithosphere-Atmosphere-Ionosphere Coupling), which is probably associated with seismic ionospheric disturbance. The observation system parameters of the Yunnan Schumann resonance monitoring stations and the results of statistical and seismic cases analysis are introduced in this paper. Three days before the March 10, 2011 MS5.8 Yingjiang earthquake, anomalous Schumann resonance in the By component (E-W) was observed by Yongsheng station, and two days before the Lincang MS4.0 earthquake of January 23, 2011, anomalous Schumann resonance in the By component was detected by the same station. Spectrum analysis results on the By component observations of Tonghai station show that strong disturbances were observed in spectral density corresponding to the first three Schumann resonant frequencies on the very day of the MS4.2 Honghe earthquake of May 22, 2011. Research shows that Schumann resonance monitoring is a feasible method for seismic-electromagnetic precursors monitoring.
