Abstract: Compared with the strong noise background,intensity of efficient signal is very small when using thermal radiation to obtain the current tectonic activity. Increasing range of thermal radiation resulting from fault activity accords with dimension of inversion precision of thermal radiation of land surface,and information of fault activity is submerged by inversion error of thermal radiation of land surface. Besides,it is difficult to discriminate the information of fault activity when the data precision is high. This paper develops a new method,i.e. the Mean Grad Method (MGM),to solve the above-mentioned problems. First,we average the long-time data to gain a higher data precision at an expense of losing time information,then,distinguish the space distribution of the current tectonic activity from thermal radiation field of land surface by space grad of thermal radiation according to the difference between influence of atmosphere and tectonic activity on land surface. This method can offer some features on variation of current tectonic activity with time and space and is helpful for plotting out earthquake danger area.
