Dataset for "Fiber-Seismometer Hybrid Sensing for Seismic Imaging and Monitoring"

<p>The ambient noise dataset was collected on May 8, 2023, from a fiber-seismometer hybrid sensing deployment positioned along the Qiantang River in Hangzhou. The DAS data, Z-component and R-component data of seismometers are all stored in MAT format. Please refer to our study for detailed information on the dataset.</p> <p>Abstract about this study:</p> <p>Extreme climate events and geological disasters have intensified the urgency for advancing seismic imaging and monitoring. Despite developments in seismic instrumentation, particularly with seismometers and Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS), fine-scale observations remain challenging due to their inherent limitations and deployment configurations. This study introduces a novel hybrid sensing interferometry method that enhances multi-component signal extraction&mdash;especially poor horizontal components&mdash;through a two-step cross-correlation of DAS and seismometers. A field application near the Qiantang River in Hangzhou illustrates how our proposed framework retrieves high-quality multi-component empirical Green&rsquo;s functions and advances ultra-short duration ambient noise seismic imaging techniques, including surface wave dispersion measurements and horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio assessments. Our approach also facilitates monitoring of near-surface seismic velocity changes, dv/v, with an unprecedented 10-minute resolution, shedding light on shallow dynamic hydraulic responses. This innovative hybrid sensing framework offers new perspectives and methodologies for transforming future research in seismological observation, imaging, and monitoring.&nbsp;</p>
