Abstract

During the period of October 1–18, 2009, 41 km southwest of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, in the intersection zone of tectonic faults of various orders, simultaneous recording of the geoacoustic emission, gradient of the atmospheric electric field’s potential, strains of the Earth’s surface, atmospheric pressure, wind speed, and rain intensity was made. It was found for the first time that anomalous disturbances of high-frequency geoacoustic emission and atmospheric electric field near the Earth’s surface originate as a simultaneous response to extension of near-surface sedimentary rocks. In the case of compression, only disturbances of geoacoustic emission occur. Anomalies were recorded under quiet weather conditions and with rocks strains being two orders greater than those of tidal ones.
