Seismo-hydro-electromagnetics: elements of the tsunami precursors' detection physics

摘要

To improve tsunami forecasting, the satellite technologies, including geomatics, must be adapted to the complex physical nature of the tsunami preparation process. We have formulated a mathematical model of the seismo(S)-hydro(H)-electromagnetic(EM)-temperature(T) interaction(I) (SHEMTI) precursory process. Magneto-thermo-elasticity and magneto-hydrodynamic theories along with geophysical data were used. We have computed the SHEMTI process in a model seismically active lithosphere?￠????Ocean?￠????atmosphere domain and compared results with earlier measurements. Application for detection of tsunami precursors is discussed.
