Instrumental Observations of Geomagnetic Disturbances Prior to Seismic Events in Several Regions of China

摘要

The paper presents results of instrumental observations of seismic processes and variations in the Earth's magnetic field at the stages of nucleation and development of earthquakes in the Chinese provinces of Qinghai, Sichuan and Yunnan. Data on manifestations of all these strong seismic events are indicated. Monitoring of the changes in the magnetic field is based on data obtained at the Northern Caucasus Geophysical Observatory, IPE RAS and integrated observation points of the Institute of Terrestrial Magnetism, the Ionosphere and Radio Wave Propagation, RAS (IZMIRAN). The experimental results have allowed us to represent the structure of induced anomalous geomagnetic disturbances, which can be associated with the development of related geodynamic processes in the geological medium of the seismic source zone.
