2020年新疆伽师MS 5.4、MS6.4两次中强地震发震构造探讨(英文)

2020年1月,新疆伽师连续发生M_S5.4、M_S6.4两次中强地震,震中分别位于天山南麓和塔里木盆地交界的推覆构造前缘。基于地震精定位和震源机制解揭示褶皱和逆冲带的深部几何结构对于理解这两次中强震发生机理具有重要的作用。本文利用18个区域固定地震台站资料,对2009年1月1日至2021年7月31日期间的地震展开重定位研究,并对伽师M_S5.4前震、M_S6.4主震以及7次4级以上余震开展震源机制求解,进一步反演得到震源区构造应力场。地震定位结果显示,整个地震序列呈NNW和EW2个优势方向分布,前震序列和余震序列在时空分布上存在明显差异,前震序列主要沿着NNW向展布,而余震主要在近EW向的奥兹格尔他乌断裂上展布,并表现出双层分布特征;震源机制反演结果表明,2020年1月18日伽师M_S5.4前震为一次走滑型地震事件,而伽师M_SS6.4主震和7次余震均为逆冲型事件;另外,应力场反演显示主震震源区为近NS向挤压特征,与该区域地表应力状态基本一致。结合上述结果以及周边地...

Late Cenozoic faulting in SW Bulgaria: Fault geometry,kinematics and driving stress regimes. Implications for late orogenic processes in the Hellenic hinterland

We investigate the geometry and kinematics of the faults exposed in basement rocks along the Strouma River in SW Bulgaria as well as the sequence of faulting events in order to place constraints on the Cenozoic kinematic evolution of this structurally complex domain. In order to decipher the successive stress fields that prevailed during the tectonic history, we additionally carried out an analysis of mesoscale striated faults in terms of paleostress with a novel approach. This approach is based on the P–T axes distribution of the fault-slip data, and separates the fault-slip data into different groups which are characterized by kinematic compatibility, i.e., their P and T axes have similar orientations. From these fault groups, stress tensors are resolved and in case these stress tensors define similar stress regimes (i.e., the orientations of the stress axes and the stress shape ratios are similar) then the fault groups are further unified. The merged fault groups after being filled out with those fault-slip data that have not been incorporated into the above described grouping, but which present similar geometric and kinematic features are used for defining the final stress regimes. In addition, the sequence of faulting events was constrained by available tectonostratigraphic data.Five faulting events named D1, D2, D3, D4 and D5 are distinguished since the Late Oligocene. D1 is a pure compression stress regime with σ₁ stress axis trending NNE-SSW that mainly activated the WNW-ESE to ENE-WSW faults as reverse to oblique reverse and the NNW-SSE striking as right-lateral oblique contractional faults during the Latest Oligocene-Earliest Miocene. D2 is a strike-slip − transpression stress regime with σ₁ stress axis trending NNE-SSW that mainly activated the NNW-SSE to N-S striking as right-lateral strike-slip faults and the ENE-WSW striking faults as left-lateral strike-slip ones during the Early-Middle Miocene. D3 extensional event is associated with a NW-SE to WNW-ESE extension causing the activation of mainly low-angle normal faults of NE-SW strike and NNE-SSW to NNW-SSE striking high-angle normal faults. D4 is an extensional event dated from Late Miocene to Late Pliocene. It activated NNW-SSE to NW-SE faults as normal faults and E-W to WNW-ESE faults as right-lateral oblique extensional faults. The latest D5 event is an N-S extensional stress regime that dominates the wider area of SW Bulgaria in Quaternary times. It mainly activated faults that generally strike E-W (ENE-WSW and WNW-ESE) normal faults, along which fault-bounded basins developed. The D1 and D2 events are interpreted as two progressive stages of transpressional tectonics related to the late stages of collision between Apulia and Eurasia plates. These processes gave rise to the lateral extrusion of the Rhodope and Balkan regions toward the SE along the Strouma Lineament. The D3 event is attributed to the latest stage of this collision, and represents the relaxation of the overthickened crust along the direction of the lateral extrusion. The D4 and D5 events are interpreted as post-orogenic extensional events related to the retreat of the Hellenic subduction zone since the Late Miocene and to the widespread back-arc Aegean extension still prevailing today.     

由多个小震推断的青甘和川滇地区地壳应力场的方向特征

本文根据1975-1984年期间发生的多个小地震的P波初动方向数据,推断了青、甘、川、滇地区平均主应力轴的方向。结果表明,该地区压应力轴（P轴）和张应力轴（T轴）方向皆水平,但其方位由北到南呈现规则转动的趋势,即主压应力轴在北部青甘地区大致取NE-SW方向,到中部川西北地区转为近E-W方向,再到南部云南地区转为NNW-SSE或近N-S方向。形成应力轴方向这样特定分布图象的原因,可用印度板块向北对青藏高原的推挤和缅甸中源地震带地区下沉物质对云南地区的拖曳作用来解释。     

Stress pattern in two seismogenic sources in Nepal-Himalaya and its vicinity

The composite stereographic projection of orientations of the compression and tension axes using thirty-nine fault-plane solutions of earthquakes from two active seismogenic sources of Nepal and adjoining areas were examined and the nature of stress pattern and their influence on tectonics in the region have been studied. The seismogenic source located in Eastern Nepal region, which has been the site of 1934 Bihar-Nepal great earthquake of M 8.4, is presently experiencing N-S to NE-SW directed compressive stresses. The inferred pattern of compression axes in Western Nepal region suggests a shallow compressive stress, dipping N-S to NE-SW. Approximately similar nature of the stress regime is observed in Western and Eastern regions of Nepal, separated by nearly 700 km; it shows N-S to NNE-SSW direction of compression and underthrusting of the Indian Plate beneath the Himalaya at a shallow angle. Present study indicates that the stress is being released along the strikes of some of the transverse faults present in the region since the compressive stress exerted by the northward movement of the Indian Plate is approximately perpendicular to the Himalayan collision belt. Unilateral stress pattern generated by the northward movement of the Indian Plate in the central part of the Himalaya reveals that the present day collision occurs roughly perpendicular to the local strike of the Himalaya.     

震源机制与应力体系关系模拟研究

为理解震源机制和所作用的应力张量之间的关系,模拟了东西向挤压、垂直向拉张的挤压应力体系,南北向挤压、东西向拉张的走滑应力体系和垂直向挤压、东西向拉张的拉张应力体系所产生震源机制及其剪应力和正应力的表现.结果表明:挤压应力体系可以产生逆断型、走滑型和逆走滑型的震源机制,并随着应力形因子R的增大,逆断型震源机制数目逐渐减小,而走滑型和逆走滑型震源机制数目逐渐增加;走滑应力体系兼有各种类型的震源机制,随着R值的增大,正断型和正走滑型震源机制数目逐渐减小,而逆断型和逆走滑型震源机制数目逐渐增加;拉张应力体系兼有正断型、走滑型和正走滑型震源机制,随着R值的增加,正断型震源机制数目逐渐增加,而走滑型和正走滑型震源机制数目逐渐减小.挤压应力体系在震源机制节面上的最大剪应力分布在R=0时沿倾角45°分布,随着R值增大至1,逐渐演变为沿着以(0°,90°)和(180°,90°)为中心的圆弧分布;拉张应力体系的最大剪应力分布则随着R值自0增大至1,最大剪应力自以(0°,90°)和(180°,90°)为中心的圆弧分布逐渐演变为沿倾角45°分布;走滑应力体系则随着R值自0增大至1,最大剪应力自以(0°,90°)和(180°,90°)为中心的圆弧分布逐渐演变为以(90°,90°)为中心的圆弧分布.三种应力体系所表现的震源机制P,T轴分布呈现复杂多样性:R越小,震源机制的T轴分布在拉张主应力周围的区域范围越小,而P轴分布在挤压轴周围的区域范围越大,R=0.5时两者分布区域范围均衡,R超过0.5时越接近1,震源机制的P轴分布在挤压主应力周围的区域范围越小,而T轴分布在拉张轴附近的区域范围越大.     

Source mechanism of earthquakes in Peru

The source mechanism of 19 earthquakes that occurred in Peru (1990–1996) is studied using broad band data. Focal mechanisms are obtained using polarities of P wave and body wave form inversion. Shallow earthquakes show complex source time functions, intermediate and deep depth shocks have simpler ones. Stress distributions have been obtained from focal mechanisms estimated in this study and previous studies. Shallow earthquakes show reverse faulting with an ENE-WSW to E-W oriented pressure axes. Intermediate depth shocks indicate horizontal extension on E-W direction, normal to the Peru-Chilean trench. Earthquakes with foci at very deep depth show horizontal extension in the E-W direction in Peru-Brazil and N-S in Peru-Bolivia borders. This difference in stress orientation may indicate a different origin for deep activity at each region.     

Fault plane solutions in Sichuan-Yunnan rhombic block and their dynamic implications

Harvard Centroid Moment Tensor (CMT) solutions for earthquakes from 1977 to 2004 showed that the stress fields are obviously different in northwestern Sichuan sub-block (NWSSB), western parts of Central Yunnan sub-block (CYSB) and eastern part of CYSB. The characteristics of the mean stress fields in these three regions are obtained by fitting to CMT solutions. The stress state in NWSSB is characterized by its sub-horizontal tensile principal axis of stress (T axis) in roughly N-S direction and west dipping compressive principal axis of stress (P axis); the one in western part of CYSB is characterized by its ENE dipping T axis and sub-horizontal medium prin-cipal axis of stress (B axis) in roughly N-S direction; the one in eastern part of CYSB is characterized by its sub-horizontal P axis in roughly NNW-SSE direction and sub-horizontal T axis in roughly WSW-ENE direction. Finite element method simulation clearly shows that the Indian Plate imposes great extrusion on Sichuan-Yunnan rhombic block (SYRB) near Assam massif. The value of the simulated compressive principal stress decreases with the distance from Assam massif. The simulated directions of the T axes in SYRB form annular distribution encir-cling Assam. For a homogeneous elastic medium with free boundary conditions on the top and bottom surfaces as well as the displacement boundary conditions derived from the GPS observations on the lateral boundaries, the computation results are consistent with the Harvard CMT solutions in NWSSB and western part of CYSB, while inconsistent with the Harvard CMT solutions in eastern part of CYSB. The inconsistency in eastern part of CYSB can be reduced when it includes inhomogeneous elastic media. The stress states in NWSSB and western part of CYSB revealed by the Harvard CMT solutions are not local, which are mainly controlled by the boundary force on the whole region. On the other hand, the stress state in eastern part of CYSB given by the Harvard CMT solutions is local, which may be affected by local topography, material inhomogeneity, and the drag force underneath.     

川滇地块的震源机制解特征及其地球动力学解释

美国哈佛大学1977——2004年的矩心矩张量结果显示， 我国川西北次级地块、 滇中次级地块的西部及滇中次级地块的东部的应力场特征有明显的差别. 应用滑动矢量拟合法， 反演了这三个区域的应力场特征: 川西北次级地块以近南北向的水平主张应力轴和西倾的主压应力轴为特征； 滇中次级地块的西部以倾向北东东的主张应力轴以及近南北的水平中等主应力轴为特征； 滇中次级地块的东部以南西西——北东东向的水平主张应力轴以及北北西——南南东向的水平主压应力轴为特征. 有限元模拟结果清楚地显示出， 川滇地块在阿萨姆楔附近受到来自印度板块的强烈挤压， 随着远离阿萨姆楔， 这种挤压应力逐渐衰减； 同时， 该地区的主张应力方向明显地形成了围绕阿萨姆楔的环线. 其中， 内部物质性质均匀、 地表和底部边界自由、 侧部边界采用GPS观测约束的弹性有限元模拟显示， 在川西北次级地块， 模拟结果与震源机制解结果相一致； 在滇中次级地块， 模拟结果所显示的图象与震源机制解观测结果有差别， 不仅没有显示出与大面积的东部地区的震源机制解相一致的特征， 反而显示出与该地区西部震源机制解相一致的特征. 通过调节地块内部物质的弹性常数， 可以实现在滇中次级地块东部部分地区出现与震源机制      

Source mechanism studies of earthquakes in the Ibero-Maghrebian region and their tectonic implications

Seismicity of the Ibero-Maghrebian region includes the occurrence of shallow, intermediate depth, and very deep earthquakes. This is a very rare occurrence for a region not associated to an active subduction zone. Detailed studies of the source mechanism of these three types of earthquakes have been made possible through the collaboration with Prof. Madariaga. They give important information about the complex tectonic of the region. Shallow earthquakes at the west and east ends of the region have predominant reverse faulting with NW-SE trending horizontal pressure axes. The center part is the most tectonically complex. At the Strait of Gibraltar, there is a change on focal mechanisms from reverse faulting to strike-slip motion in northern Morocco, conserving the horizontal compression on NW-SE direction. In the Alboran Sea, mechanisms are of normal faulting with E-W trending horizontal tension axes, and in south Spain, mechanisms are of mixed solutions. The intermediate depth earthquakes (40–130 km) are located at both sides of the Strait of Gibraltar, at the western part distributed in E-W direction. The most important concentration, however, is located at the east of Gibraltar in a N-S trending thin vertical body and has different mechanisms. The very deep earthquakes (650 km) are concentrated at a small volume, and their mechanism corresponds to N-S vertical planes or horizontal ones. A tectonic model for the region is presented to explain the shallow, intermediate, and deep earthquakes.     

东日本大地震地震序列的震源机制解特征及其动力学意义

日本本州及其邻近区域的应力状态以及弧后盆地的演化机制一直是人们所关注的问题.本文对2011年3月11日东日本大地震地震序列(2011年3月11日至2012年3月15日)的哈佛双力偶解进行了聚类分析,得到五种类型的震源机制解:与主震类型一致的低倾角逆断层型地震;主张应力方向垂直于日本海沟走向的正断层型地震;主张应力方向平行于日本海沟走向的正断层型地震;主压应力方向平行于日本海沟走向的逆断层型地震;包括走滑型地震在内的其他类型地震.东日本大地震地震序列中发生在弧前增生楔地震的震源机制解与大地震发生之前地震的震源机制解特征有显著区别,反映出该地区的应力状态与震前相比有较大改变.东日本大地震及其前震释放了附近区域的累积弹性应力,主震破裂区附近太平洋板块和其上覆板块接近完全解耦,降低了日本海盆地、中国东北地区的近东西向挤压应力水平.不过,整个本州岛东部区域太平洋板块和其上覆板块并没有完全解耦,但应力水平并不高.我们认为,日本海及中国东北应力水平的降低会使该区域的近东西向挤压型地震的危险性降低,而使NNE-SSW走向的走滑型地震活动性增强.同时,火山活动性也会增强.尤其是本州岛地区,存在近期火山爆发的可能性.东日本大地震地震序列的震源机制解特征还提示我们,日本海的应力状态及日本海的演化可能在一定程度上取决于太平洋板块和上覆板块的耦合状态.持续的弱耦合将不仅使得弧后大范围的地区保持岩浆上涌所必须的拉伸应力环境,而且还会因弧前隆起区发育大量正断层型地震而向深部提供促使岩浆生成所必须的水,因而造成日本海的再次扩张.     

Geodynamical basis for crustal deformation under the Tibetan Plateau

This paper uses plate tectonics and satellite-derived gravity data to further discussion of crustal deformation under the Tibetan Plateau. The first of our three contributions is a spherical harmonic analysis of the global plate boundary system. A distribution of 470 Dirac delta functions is applied to describe the generating forces according to the rates of crustal creation and destruction on the plate boundaries. Analysis of the extensional and compressional forces in the spreading and subducting zones shows that the present global plate motion causes compressional stresses in the N-S direction under the Tibetan Plateau. The second contribution is the calculation of the crustal stresses in Tibet as inferred from satellite gravity data. By applying solutions to the problem of the spherical shells, the satellite-determined stresses indicate that the up-welling mantle material under Tibet induce N-S and E-W extension. Finally, a superimposed stress system is constructed. This stress system shows that the present crustal deformation in Tibet does not produce N-S shortening but generates E-W extension.The results of this paper have provided geodynamical explanations for geological field observations in Tibet and fault plane solutions of earthquakes in the Tibetan side of the India-Eurasia collision. The stress patterns reveal that the cold downwelling mantle convection flow beneath southern Tibet pulls the Indian plate down but applies a bending moment on the end of the plate to uplift and support the mass of the Himalayas.
