“…Although the influx of hot pore waters into phreatic aquifers has been observed during earthquakes along other faults in Greece (e.g. Asteriadis & Livieratos 1989), it may be that fractures within the fault-block crest were simply conduits for ascending fluids driven by the present-day hydrodynamic head, as is the case with the nearby Loutraki hot springs (Fig. 3) (Schroeder 1985;Fytikas & Kavouridis 1985;Brehm 1985;Garagunis & Kollias 1985).…”

Abstrart:The active Pisia Fault Zone is exposed close to the crest of a rotated carbonate fault-block that forms part of the southern margin to the Gulf of Corinth half-graben in central Greece. The crest of the fault-block lies above sea-level whilst in the hanging-wall a marine basin exists. As a result, the diagenetic and structural characteristics of the fault zone record complex fluid involvement. Both early phreatic carbonate syn-kinematic cements (characterized by drusy fabrics, baroque dolomites and crack-seal textures) and late vadose carbonate syn-kinematic cements (characterized by flowstones containing cave-collapse debris) exist in the uplifted footwall to the fault. Downward percolation of vadose meteoric waters and the upwelling of pore waters with elevated temperatures produced the diagenetic features observed within the fault zone. The co-existence of early phreatic and late vadose cements within the fault zone is related to footwall uplift across the water-table and subsequent erosional unroofing. The present-day elevation of phreatic cements to c. 650m above current sea-level, provides a minimum estimate of footwall uplift along the fault. The wider implication is that temporal changes in deformation and fluid flow may typify fault-block evolution.

“…Some hypotheses, such as modification of groundwater regime leading to an increase of convective heat flux [15], Earth degassing (Rn, CO 2 , Ar, He, CH 4 , etc.) resulting local greenhouse effect [3], underground charge generation and propagation in igneous rock with P-holes [16], near-surface air ionization due to enhanced radon emission leading to the release of latent heat [17], friction heat produced from rock fracturing and fault friction sliding [18][19][20], have been proposed to interpret the possible thermal anomaly mechanism.…”

Abstract:The particular process of LCA (Lithosphere-Coversphere-Atmosphere) coupling referring to local tectonic structures and coversphere conditions is very important for understanding seismic anomaly from GEOSS (Global Earth Observation System of Systems). The LCA coupling based multiple-parameters analysis should be the foundation for earthquake prewarning. Three improved criterions: deviation notable enough, time quasi-synchronism, and space geo-adjacency, plus their quantify indices are defined for earthquake anomaly recognition, and applied to thermal parameters as a DTS-T (Deviation-Time-Space-Thermal) method. A normalized reliability index is preliminarily defined considering three quantify indices for deviation-time-space criterions. As an example, the DTS-T method is applied to the Ms 7.1 Yushu earthquake of 14 April 2010 in China. Furthermore, combining with the previous analysis of six recent significant earthquakes in the world, the statistical results regarding effective parameters, the occurrence of anomaly before the main shocks and a reliability index for each earthquake are introduced. It shows that the DTS-T method is reasonable and can be applied for routine monitoring and prewarning in the tectonic seismicity region. OPEN ACCESSRemote Sens. 2013, 5 5144

“…Much effort have been made to find the possible earthquake precursors by scientific communities and geoscientists. The early reports of temperature changes prior to earthquakes are from ground observations (Wang and Zhu 1984;Asteriadis and Livieratos 1989;You 1990). After the 1980s, quickly-developed satellite remote sensing reveals transient thermal infrared radiation (TIR) anomalies occurring before some medium-to-large earthquakes (Gorny et al 1988;Tronin et al 2002;Ouzounov and Freund 2004;Lisi et al 2010;Zhang et al 2010).…”

Lushan M S 7.0 earthquake occurred in Lushan county, Ya'an city, Sichuan province of China, on 20 April 2013, and caused 196 deaths, 23 people of missing and more than 12 thousand of people injured. In order to analyze the possible seismic brightness temperature anomalies which may be associated with Lushan earthquake, daily brightness temperature data for the period from 1 June 2011 to 31 May 2013 and the geographical extent of 25°E-35°N latitude and 98°E-108°E longitude are collected from Chinese geostationary meteorological satellite FY-2E. Continuous wavelet transform method which has good resolution both in time and frequency domains is used to analyze power spectrum of brightness temperature data. The results show that the relative wavelet power spectrum (RWPS)
