General Considerations About Earthquake
Warning System (EWS) • National EWS:
• Earthquake Monitoring Network
Strong Motion Network: 2000 Digital Accelrographs
• Special Communication & Information Network
• Control Center: China Earthquake Disaster Prevention
And Reduction Center (Beijing)
Objective: Large Earthquake Reporting ≤10 min
Emergency Response ≤25 min
Seismometers:636 Fixed and 1000 Mobile
(2). EWS for Major Monitoring Cities:
Such as Beijing, Tianjin, Kunming,
Lanzhou, Urumchi etc., to establish regional
dense earthquake intensity quickly reporting
network.
(3). EWS for Important Infrastructures:
Such as Nuclear Power Plant, Hydropower Station,
Highway and High Railway, to establish dense
telemetered accelarograph network.

4. Application to Energy Lifeline System
(1) Basic Idea: to build earthquake monitoring system including accelerographs, communication system and control center.
(2) Basic principle:
a. S-wave Alarm (40 gal, 80 gal, 120 gal);
b. Front Alarm (arrival time difference);
c. P-wave alarm (initial motion).
d. The determination of earthquake parameters
(magnitude, location, time);
e. Evaluation of earthquake damage losses
Analysis and estimation of strong ground motion
along energy supply system
Emergency plan
This is a pipe line with length of 5400 km which will transport gas From Tarimu and Changqing Oil Field to provinces of East China (Anhui, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Zhejiang).
Because of the widely distributed potential earthquake sources, we can not establish a EWS like that in Mexico or in Hualien, Taiwan. S-wave Alarm criteria will be applied by setting detecting units every 50km along the pipeline, some existing instruments operated by different related provinces will included in this Earthquake System.

Four National Major Lifeline ProjectsFour National Major Lifeline Projects
Conclusion Remarks• China is an earthquake-prone country, energy supply
system suffered severe damages in the past strong
earthquakes;
• The existing Earthquake Warning System is just a
primary step;
• The development of the national economy needs
urgent effective EWS;
• We hope as more as possible cooperation with the
members of APEC on this filed
• Consists of distributed seismic
accelerographs, communication links
and controlling center;
• Can quickly response to seismic
event;
• Losses can be minimized through
promptly countermeasures .
Basic Concept of EWS:
S-wave Alarm : The alert is issued when the acceleration exceeds pre-set levels, such as 40 gal (A), 80 gal (B) and 120 gal (C). Three levels correspond to different countermeasures.
Problems: Alarm is too late to give enough time useful for the countermeasures;
Frequent false alarm is issued for the harmless small earthquake.

S-wave Alarm
Front Alarm: The earthquake motions are detected as early as possible near the source to prepare against the earthquake before seismic motion reaches the site, using the difference of transmission velocities of electric signal and seismic wave.

P-wave Alarm (From UrEDAS, Japan)
Alarm Philosophy (3)
P-wave Alarm: Alarm is issued by the detecting of P-wave. Usually, P-wave alarm is done by the trigger of at least two adjacent accelerometers. If the pre-set threshold level is to low, false alarm occurs very often.
In the case of single station, the epicentral azimuth may be estimated by the amplitude of initial part of two horizontal traces, the epicentral distance may be calculated by the arrival time difference of P and S waves.
As for multi-station, the earthquake location
may be determined using the arrival time of P
waves at 4 stations.
Method for location determination
Alarming system When the state or regional telemetered station network center receives the information of P wave at some stations, they automatically transmit one alarming single to early alarm system center of energy supply system closing to the epicenter.
After the earthquake parameters transmit to the early alarm system center, the alarm system intelligently estimate the damage of energy supply system by use of the earthquake parameters and the information from the dense telemetered accelarograph network , and then take appropriate emergency measures.
What Should We Do in the Near Future
To establish National EWS, some regional EWS and EWS for important infrastructure, New type of earthquake detecting instruments have been produced such as GDQJ-I and GDQJ-II.
