Abstract:We study the moon phase modulation effect of small earthquakes above M1 in Shandong inland area since 2008, combining with the variation of seismic b value in this area. The results show that there are anomalies of low b value and high modulation ratio in the area before the 2020-02-18 Changqing M4.1 earthquake, and we calculate the deflection phenomenon of P-axis of the composite nodal plane solution, which is very consistent with the variation period of low b value of small earthquakes. In addition, before the 6 earthquakes above M4 in this area, the abnormality of modulation ratio ≥0.33 occurs 4 times. In 2011 and 2016, the two Fanxian earthquakes did not show the above changes, which may be related to the activity mechanism of oil recovery in Fanxian small earthquake concentration area.
