Abstract
We developed a statistical study analyzing global seismicity enhancement and its variation overtwenty years. X-flares sometimes occur in conjunction with Coronal Mass Ejections (CME),which make their connection with the Earth’s magnetosphere stronger. The preliminary study divided the Earth into seven regions determined by longitude and latitude, and nine levels of depth valid for most locations in the Pacific area. The results showed that X beams influenced seismicity in terrestrial localities, mainly high magnitude earthquakes occurring below the crust at 70 km. These internal enhancements happen without the presence of any external forces such as studied in Solar Speed Winds. Nevertheless, those variations are perceptible in the presence of intense X flares and CME and less observed in the periods during which flares were absent. Two cases of high magnitude earthquakes in recent years are analyzed, and the extreme external conditions of those events fit with this theory.
Highlights
The complicated relationship between Solar activity and the Earth once more is considered in this research
In the East Pacific, we found a variation below the crust and the most significant changes are in the lowest depths of 500 km - 600 km with no connection to any external movements or fluctuations
We found an internal disturbance below the crust that varies randomly with depth
Summary
The complicated relationship between Solar activity and the Earth once more is considered in this research. At the surface of the Earth, we are well protected from the effects of solar flares and other solar activity by the Earth’s magnetic field and atmosphere [7]. The X-rays from flares are stopped by our atmosphere well above the Earth’s surface They do disrupt the Earth’s ionosphere, which in turn disturbs some radio communications. Along with energetic ultraviolet radiation, they heat the Earth’s outer atmosphere, causing it to expand This radiation increases the drag on Earth-orbiting satellites, reducing their lifetime in orbit. All those external instabilities are well known; it is unknown if the X flares can disrupt the Earth’s surface or if they are able to interfere with the Earth’s internal magnetic field, enhancing hazard events. This research is a first step toward understanding if and how these effects would occur [8, 9]
