    Abstract
  • The study on lunar internal structure is the hot issue. Seismology is one of the best methods for studying lunar internal structure. In this paper, the moonquake data and parameters are reanalyzed, and the characteristics of moonquake signal, distribution and mechanism are discussed in detail and compared with earthquake. By combining with previous studies, it is concluded that the moonquake is quite different from earthquake. Moonquake signals are typically of very long duration. Deep moonquakes and thermal moonquakes show evident wave form matching feature. Most of moonquakes detected are deep moonquakes which mainly distribute on the nearside of the Moon. The largest number of deep moonquakes which emanate from source nest are caused by tidal. Thermal moonquake also occurs periodically, resulting from temperature variation during one lunation.
