Abstract. In the last years disturbances in VLF/LF radio signals related to seismic activity have been presented. The data were collected by receivers located on ground or satellites. ground-based research implies systematic collection a network of receivers. Since 2000 "Pacific VLF network", conducted Japanese researchers, has operation. During 2008 receiver was developed Italian factory Elettronika (Palo del Colle, Bari). is equipment working and LF bands. It can monitor 10 frequencies...

According to the well-known Lithosphere Ionosphere Coupling (LAIC) mechanism, tectonic activity during earthquake preparation period produces anomalies at ground level which propagate upwards in troposphere as Acoustic or Standing gravity waves. Thus observing frequency content of ionospheric turbidity a well extended area, space and time, around an event we will observe decrease higher limit band. In this article review repeated observational results TEC turbulent band upper (TBUL) on...

Abstract. The tides for the Mediterranean Sea are described through a high resolution model (MEDI10) developed by assimilation of tide-gauge data and T/P into barotropic ocean tide model. Tidal parameters from 56 coastal stations around eight principal constituents: M2, S2, N2, K2, K1, O1, P1 Q1 20 O1 included in TOPEX/Poseidon with all corrections applied except bathymetry TOPO 13.1 were used development Numerical experiments carried out estimation friction velocity decorrelation length...

Aims.We report results of a quantitative colorimetric UBVRI analysis two flare events on the red dwarf EV Lac. The photometric data were obtained in September 2004, during multi-site synchronous monitoring from four observatories Ukraine, Russia, Greece, and Bulgaria. These observations confirmed presence small-scale high-frequency oscillations (HFO) initially detected by Rodonó (1974, A&A, 32, 337) recently reconfirmed authors. Here we discuss color characteristics flares HFO.

VLF/LF (20 - 300 kHz) radio waves propagation is affected by different factors such as meteorological conditions, solar bursts and geomagnetic activity. At the same time, variations of some parameters in ground, atmosphere ionosphere occurring during preparatory phase earthquakes can produce disturbances previous signals along their paths: these are precursors. Since 2009, several receivers have been installed throughout Europe order to realize a European (VLF/LF) network for studying...

Abstract. In this paper the Total Electron Content (TEC) data of eight Global Positioning System (GPS) stations EUREF network (AUT1, Thessaloniki, TUC2, Crete in Greece, MATE, Matera, LAMP, Lampedusa Italy, GAIA, Portugal, RABT, Rabat, EVPA, Evpatoria Ukrain and TRAB, Trabson Turkey) were analysed using wavelet analysis order to detect any frequency dependence correlation between TEC over different stations. same time Dst (Global geomagnetic field disturbances) variations each GPS station...

Since 2009 a network of VLF (20 - 60 kHz) and LF (150 300 radio receivers is operating in Europe order to study the disturbances produced by earthquakes on propagation these signals. In 2011 was formed nine receivers, which three are located Italy one Austria, Greece, Portugal, Romania, Russia Turkey.

This paper is one of a series papers dealing with the investigation Lower ionospheric variation on occasion an intense tectonic activity.In present paper, we investigate TEC variations during seismic activity in transition between Dead Sea fault and East Anatolian (SE Turkey) February 6th, 2023. The Total Electron Content (TEC) data are been provided by EUREF Network. These were analysed using Discrete Fourier Analysis order to turbulence band content. results this indicate that...

We report on the recent earthquakes (EQs) that occurred, with main shock 6 February 2023, principally in central southern part of Turkey and northwestern Syria. This region is predisposed to because tectonic plate movements between Anatolian, Arabian, African plates. The seismic epicenter was localized at 37.08°E 37.17°N depth order 10 km magnitude Mw7.8. use Graz’s very-low-frequency VLF facility (15.43°E, 47.06°N) investigate amplitude variation Denizköy transmitter, Didim district Aydin...

Abstract. The tidal changes of the barometric pressure in area Thessaloniki were studied by analysing a sample 21 years hourly measurements. resulted parameters (amplitude and phase difference) considered as "mean values" corresponding for this long time period. Using these parameters, computed subtracted from observations. Assuming that residuals might include local (in terms time) information,the residual series was split blocks new analysis performed each block separately. amplitude...
