- Abstract:
- We demonstrate a ray tracing method for earthquake locating without prior velocity structure,which is based on ray theory. As the seismic ray focus on the hypocenter,first we divide the layer into sub-layers,and compute the velocities of the sub-layers and the location of the hypocenter by grid-search; then we increase the number of the sub-layers step by step,and repeat the process before correcting the hypocenter location; at last,we get a more accurate result. Simulative data have been used to test the method,the results show that,this method can be used for earthquake location in theory. We use this method to locate a natural earthquake. In contrast with the location result of Yunnan Seismic Network,we find the two results are close.
