A curve that shows the relationship between travel time and epicentral distance. Travel time is the time it takes for seismic waves, such as P waves and S waves, to arrive at an observation point after leaving the epicenter. Epicentral distance is the shortest distance measured along the Earth's surface between the epicenter and an observation point. Travel time curves are obtained by observing seismic waves at multiple observation points. The underground layer structure can be estimated using travel time curves.

走時と震央距離の間の関係を表す曲線。走時とは、P波やS波などの地震波が、震源を出てから観測点に到着するまでの時間のことである。震央距離とは、震央と観測点の間の距離を、地球表面に沿って測った最短距離のことである。走時曲線は、地震波を多数の観測点で観測することにより得られる。走時曲線を用いて、地下の層構造を推定することができる。 [山下輝夫] [参照項目] | | |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
