Abstract

A new method is suggested for determining the time changes in the tidal response of a medium in seismically active regions, which improves the sensitivity and time resolution of the standard techniques of the moving analysis by more than an order of magnitude. The time variations in tidal responses of the medium in the quiet seismic conditions, reconstructed from the observations at the Talgar station in Kazakhstan, are compared with the corresponding data in the spatiotemporal vicinity of the Tohoku earthquake in Japan, which occurred on March 11, 2011 and had a magnitude of nine.
