Abstract
Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) is a transformative technique that converts fibre optic cables into dense antennas of environmental sensors, enabling the recording of strain rate along the cable path. This rapidly evolving technology is seamlessly integrated into workflows that exploit arrival-time information, although a comprehensive understanding of information hidden in amplitude measurements has yet to be achieved. Here, I provide an overview of the current state of knowledge on DAS with a particular focus on amplitude recordings, reviewing the literature and introducing novel tools for characterizing seismic sources. I present operational workflows for robust conversion from strain rate to displacement, enabling local magnitude estimation and the integration of DAS data into seismic monitoring. I also propose a new mathematical formulation for modelling DAS spectral amplitudes in their native domain to support source parameter estimation. By analysing the first seconds of DAS earthquake recordings, I demonstrate the potential of this technique as a key asset for rapid and accurate real-time magnitude estimation in Earthquake Early Warning systems offshore, where I outline a framework for its integration into real-time monitoring systems, from earthquake location to magnitude estimation. Furthermore, I assess the performance of DAS in detection and characterization of earthquakes for continuous microseismic monitoring, when combined with dense seismic networks. The methods developed in this thesis further highlight the increasing potential of DAS systems for seismic source characterization, from offline processing to real-time monitoring, and support the integration of this technology into seismological practice.
