Abstract

In this study, the ionospheric Total Electron Content (TEC) data of 5 days before Indonesia Nebe earthquake occurred at 13:45:05 (UT) on 27 February 2015 ( =7.0) with the depth of 547km and the epicentre of 7.277°S, 122.534°E were examined to detect TEC precursor by using Two-Dimensional Principal Component Analysis (2DPCA) because such TEC precursor could not be found by observation analysis. Results have shown that a TEC precursor was highly localized and increased in intensity during the time period from 05:55 to 06:00 (UT) on 26 February 2015. The duration time of TEC anomaly was at least 5 minutes. Possible reason of the TEC precursor over the epicenter before this earthquake should be radon gas release.
