Development and installation of fiber optic interferometric seafloor seismic and tsunami monitoring system

  • 摘要: 研制了基于光纤干涉技术的海底地震海啸监测系统,并布放在海南省万宁市的国家海洋局乌场海洋环境监测站附近海域。研制的三分量光纤干涉地震计谐振频率大约250 Hz,灵敏度达到57 dB(0 dB代表1 rad/g),工作频率范围0.005~50 Hz,最小可探测振动加速度43.4 ng/\sqrt\rmHz ;光纤干涉水位计测量精度达到±1 cm,测量范围0~110 m。系统自2017年10月完成布放,已经连续工作超过4年,并在长期运行过程中记录地震和实时水位数据。从2018年1月到2021年12月,在系统运行期间,东北亚地区发生里氏6.0级以上地震共计60余次,其中39次被系统成功监测,例如,给出了印度尼西亚苏拉威西附近海域发生的里氏6.8级以上地震的详细测量结果。文中报告了与这项工作相关的规划、设计、制造、实验室测试、海上安装、观测、数据采集和分析。介绍了系统布放过程,描述了地震计和水位计的工作原理,给出并分析了典型的地震记录和同期的水位监测记录。

     

    Abstract: A seafloor seismic and tsunami monitoring system based on fiber optic interferometric technology was developed and installed in the nearby waters at China's State Oceanic Administration’s (SOA’s) Wuchang (Hainan Province, China) monitoring site. The developed tri-component version of fiber optic interferometric seismometer had a resonance frequency of about 250 Hz, a sensitivity of 57 dB (0 dB represents 1 rad/g), with the operation frequency range of 0.005-50 Hz and the minimum detectable vibration acceleration of 43.4 ng/\sqrt\rmHz , while the fiber optic interferometric water level monitor has an accuracy of ±1 cm, a measurement range of 0-110 m. The system had been operating well more than 4 years since October, 2017, and earthquakes as well as real-time water levels had been recorded during the long-term field trial. From January in 2018 to December in 2021, there were over 60 earthquakes with ML6.0+ in Northeast Asia area, and 39 earthquakes were recorded by our system. As an example, the detailed measurement results about the ML6.8+ earthquake in adjacent waters of the Sulawesi, Indonesia were given. In this paper, we reported on the planning, design, fabrication, laboratory tests, sea installation, observation, data acquisition, and analysis associated with this effort. The system installa-tion process was introduced, the working principle of the seismometer and water level monitor was described, and the typical recorded earthquake and real-time water level monitoring data were presented and analyzed.
