RESUMO
The conversion from seismic to ocean-acoustic waves occurs in different places on the bottom of the ocean, often hundreds to thousands of kilometers away from the epicenter. Here, we investigate this conversion process by studying 15 large-magnitude earthquakes that occurred between 2014 and 2022 along the Kermadec Arc in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. To pinpoint the location where seismic-to-acoustic conversion takes places, we analyze hydroacoustic signals recorded by a hydrophone triplet station of the International Monitoring System in the Juan Fernández archipelago. Results from direction-of-arrival and travel-time calculations indicate that the location of the conversion zone largely matches segments of the Louisville Seamount Chain, its lateral extent ranging from approximately 300 to 1800 km, and its location depending on the geometry between earthquake epicenter and the seamounts.
RESUMO
This paper presents an intensive-care acquisition and signal processing integrated framework in the area of intensive care units. The framework includes nearly all monitored biosignals in the intensive care, along with metadata and processing results. It is structured on two basic applications, i.e., the acquisition and the database one, running in two different PCs that are connected through a local area network, facilitating real-time data exchange between them. The analytical rundown shows that the proposed framework is a serious effort to give a complete clinical condition of a patient and a form of a diagnostic analysis implement in the intensive care by taking in real-time processing.
