As the first step towards a general analysis of the stability of optimally accurate predictor-corrector (P-C) time domain discretized schemes for solving the elastic equation of motion, we analyze the stability of two P-C schemes for a 1-D homogeneous case. Letting Δt be the time step, h be the spatial grid interval, β be the velocity of seismic wave propagation and ? be the dimensionless Courant parameter, we find that each scheme has the following stability properties: stability for ?, instability for ?, stability for ? and instability for ?, where ?. We refer to the region ? as the second island of stability. The values of ?, ? and ? are scheme-dependent. The existence of a second island of stability in a numerical scheme for solving the wave equation has not, to our knowledge, been previously reported.
