| Popis: | In this study, for feature extraction of seismic- and nonlinear trend terms of the nonlinear and nonstationary high-rate Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) seismic displacements, we present an adaptive complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition (CEEMD) method based on correlation coefficient. We also introduce an improved CEEMD (ICEEMD) based on multiway principal component analysis (MPCA), hereafter, ICEEMD-MPCA, denoising method for boosting the high-rate GNSS seismic displacements with/without nonlinear trend. The results show that the proposed method is suitable for extracting features of nonlinear and nonstationary high-rate GNSS seismic displacements. The ICEEMD-MPCA denoising method is able to obviously eliminate white noise at high frequencies, remove systematic errors, and effectively preserve the earthquake wave signals. The denoising method reflects that high-rate GNSS has millimeter-level accuracy in the vertical component and submillimeter-level accuracy in the horizontal component. To verify the performance characteristics of the feature extraction and denoising method, the focal mechanism inversion for the 2010 El Mayor–Cucapah earthquake is estimated using the high-rate GNSS data (5 Hz) and collocated strong motion data (50 and 200 Hz). The focal mechanism of the earthquake estimated using the denoised high-rate GNSS with/without nonlinear trend are more consistent with the teleseismic estimates than those estimated using the raw high-rate GNSS and strong motion data. For the GNSS observations, the inversion results are more affected by errors in low-frequency, which accumulate over time and display their signatures as trend in coseismic displacements. It can be concluded that with the adaptive CEEMD method and the ICEEMD-MPCA denoising method, high-rate GNSS at near-field stations only or combined with GNSS/strong-motion records can be applied to yield better information regarding the earthquake focal mechanism inversion, the lower bounds of earthquake magnitudes, and earthquake rupture parameters for small to moderate earthquakes. |
