日月山断裂德州段晚更新世以来的活动速率研究

日月山断裂位于柴达木-祁连活动块体内部,受到东昆仑断裂和祁连-海原断裂等主边界断裂控制,形成了块体内部夹持于主边界断裂之间的次级构造。该断裂的构造位置特殊,确定其晚更新世以来的活动速率可提供青藏高原东北缘向外扩展的最新活动信息。文中通过建立地貌面时间标尺,分析断错的地貌标志,获得了以下2点认识:1)晚更新世以来,日月山断裂德州段主要发育一级洪积扇面fp,三级河流阶地面T1、T2和T3。其中洪积扇fp的废弃年龄约(21.2±0.6)ka,河流阶地T2的废弃年龄约(12.4±0.11)ka;2)日月山断裂晚更新世晚期以来的右旋走滑速率约(2.41±0.25)mm/a,全新世以来的右旋走滑速率约(2.18±0.40)mm/a,垂直滑动速率约(0.24±0.16)mm/a。日月山断裂德州段的右旋走滑速率在晚更新世晚期以来基本不变。日月山断裂并未切错大型块体的边界,而是青藏高原东北缘地区夹持于区域大型左旋走滑断裂内部的1套右旋走滑断裂中的1支。在青藏高原东北缘整体生长和扩展的过程中,右旋走滑断裂对各次级块体之间的变形协调起着十分重要的调节作用。     

东昆仑断裂带中东部地震破裂分段性与走滑运动分解作用

基于卫星影像解译和野外考察测量,本文对东昆仑断裂带中东部的3条次级断裂(托索湖断裂、玛沁断裂和玛曲断裂)的滑动速率以及全新世以来的古地震活动特征进行了分析研究。托索湖段与玛沁段走向产生20°和30°的双挤压弯曲,形成阿尼玛卿山挤压隆起,作为托索湖段和玛沁段的破裂分段标志,成为1937年托索湖7.5级地震地表破裂带的终止点;在西贡周西侧和莫哈塘南侧,阿万仓断裂以40°的夹角与东昆仑断裂带相交,形成西贡周断裂交汇区,成为玛沁段与玛曲段破裂分段的标志。通过构造地貌方法获得西段托索湖断裂晚第四纪晚期以来的平均水平速率为10.8±1mm/a,垂直滑动速率为1.2±0.2mm/a;中段玛沁断裂带晚第四纪晚期以来的平均水平滑动速率为9.3±2mm/a,垂直滑动速率为0.7±0.1mm/a;西贡周断层交汇区平均水平滑动速率为7.4±1mm/a,垂直滑动速率为1.2±0.1mm/a;东段玛曲断裂晚第四纪晚期以来的平均水平滑动速率为4.9±1.3mm/a,垂直滑动速率为0.3mm/a。断裂的滑动速率从西至东呈梯度下降,通过构造转换矢量分解获得阿万仓断裂西支的左旋水平走滑速率为2.4mm/a,东支的左旋水平走滑速率为1.4mm/a,垂直断裂的水平缩短速率为2.3mm/a,阿万仓断裂带西支和东支构成一个滑动分解模式。3条次级断裂的活动均产生独立地表破裂,西侧的托索湖断裂发生了1937年MS7.5级地震,中段玛沁断裂发生了公元1061年格萨尔王时期和距今358~430CalaBP的地表破裂,玛曲段地表破裂距今约1055~1524aBP,显示出段落之间应力触发有关的地震破裂事件沿断裂带单向迁移的特征。同时利用断裂单次地震位移和古地震复发周期获得断裂的长期滑动速率,结果显示与构造地貌方法获得的滑动速率几乎一致,也显示自西向东逐渐递减的趋势。断裂滑动速率的递减与几何结构走向的弯曲以及横向断裂的相交一一对应,东昆仑断裂带的滑动速率梯度递减的主要原因是东昆仑断裂带东延和横向断裂相交,构造转换造成的。     

祁连山活动断裂带中东段冷龙岭断裂滑动速率的精确厘定

冷龙岭活动断裂是青藏高原东北缘祁连山断裂带的重要组成部分, 位于祁连山断裂带中东段。 根据野外考察结果认为, 该断裂全新世以来活动强烈, 主要表现为左旋走滑运动, 并伴有正倾滑性质, 断错地貌特征明显。 通过高分辨率SPOT卫星数字影像和大比例尺航空照片处理确定断层的位置, 利用断错地貌测图、 热释光(TL)和碳十四(¹⁴C)测年方法, 厘定了冷龙岭断裂的晚第四纪滑动速率, 冷龙岭断裂晚更新世以来的平均水平滑动速率为(4.3±0.7)mm/a, 全新世晚期以来的平均水平滑动速率为(3.9±0.36)mm/a。     

利用岷江阶地的变形估算龙门山断裂带中段晚第四纪滑动速率

用岷江都江堰—汶川段晚第四纪阶地面的变形量估算了龙门山断裂带中段的滑动速率。岷江及其支流发育3级晚第四纪河流阶地,阶地面的年龄分别约为10,20,50kaBP。阶地纵剖面在茂汶-汶川断裂、北川-映秀断裂和江油-灌县断裂处有明显的垂直变形。断裂活动具有间歇性特点,晚第四纪以来有过3期活动,其起始时间分别为50,20,10kaBP。依据各级阶地面年龄和变形量估算的茂汶-汶川断裂、北川-映秀断裂和江油-灌县断裂晚第四纪逆冲滑动速率分别为0.5,0.6～0.3,0.2mm/a;据阶地走滑位错估算的茂汶-汶川断裂和北川-映秀断裂的晚第四纪右旋走滑速率均约为1mm/a。现代河床之下发育很厚的河流堆积物表明,龙门山的构造抬升经历了较为复杂的过程     

GPS观测及断裂晚第四纪滑动速率所反映的青藏高原北部变形

断裂晚第四纪滑动速率及现今GPS观测揭示了青藏高原向北扩展与高原边缘隆升的运动特征.主要断裂晚第四纪滑动速率及跨断裂GPS应变速率的结果表明,青藏高原北部边缘的断裂以低滑动速率（＜10 mm/a）为主,特别是两条边界断裂：阿尔金断裂和海原—祁连山断裂.两条主要边界断裂上的滑动速率分布显示了断裂间滑动速率转换及调整特征.阿尔金断裂自95°E以西的8～12 mm/a稳定滑动速率,向东逐渐降低到最东端的约1～2 mm/a,而海原断裂自哈拉湖一带开始发育后滑动速率为1～2 mm/a,到祁连一带（101°E以东）增大到相对稳定的4～5 mm/a,直到过海原后转向六盘山一带,滑动速率降低到1～3 mm/a,甚至更低.滑动速率的变化及分布特征显示,阿尔金断裂滑动主要是通过祁连山内部隆起及两侧新生代盆地变形引起的缩短来吸收的,海原—祁连山断裂的低滑动速率及沿断裂运动学特征表明断裂尾端的陇西盆地变形及六盘山的隆起是断裂左旋走滑速率的主要吸收方式.这一变形特征表明,青藏高原北部边缘的变形模式是一种分布式的连续变形,变形发生自高原内部,边界断裂的走滑被高原内部变形所吸收.     

云南西南部黑河断裂晚第四纪分段活动特征

通过野外活动断裂地质填图,获得了云南西南部黑河断裂的断错微地貌、断错地层、最新活动时代及滑动速率等定量参数。对比分析表明,黑河断裂具有较明显的分段活动特征,根据断层几何特征大致可划分3条次级断裂段,自西向东分别为沧源—木戛段、木戛—南代段和南代—勐往段,各段晚第四纪以来新活动形成了丰富的断错地貌现象。由断层剖面及断错地貌特征分析,黑河断裂全新世晚期具分段破裂特征,其中沧源—木戛段存在古地震形变带,其年代介于(242±44)a B.P.和(1 714±49)a B.P.之间,木戛—南代段是1988年澜沧7.6级地震的主破裂带之一,南代—勐往段全新世晚期有过活动,最晚离逝时间介于(550±30)a B.P.和(1 290±30)a B.P.之间。根据对断错冲沟及台地的差分GPS测量和相应年代测试,得到沧源—木戛段全新世以来的右旋走滑速率为(4.0±0.7)mm/a,木戛—南代段全新世的右旋走滑速率为(3.5±0.8)mm/a。     

青藏高原东北缘三关口-牛首山断裂的右旋走滑与弧形构造带扩展

三关口-牛首山断裂的运动学特征对认识青藏高原东北缘弧形构造带的扩展具有重要意义.在野外调查的基础上,通过大比例地质填图、典型地貌测量和沉积地层年代测定等方法,确定该断裂是一条具有明显右旋走滑特征的断裂,而非前人认为的左旋走滑断裂.研究发现,形成于古生代、中生代、新生代的地质界线均被断层右旋错动,断错位移相近,消除地形效应后确定的断裂最大走滑位移为(961±6)m.断裂北段的三关口断裂具有明显的新活动特征,一系列小冲沟跨断裂发生了同步右旋扭动,获得的断裂晚第四纪以来平均水平滑动速率约0.35mm/a.而形成于上新世末的先存褶皱构造被断裂错断异位,表明断裂的右旋走滑不早于上新世末.利用最大位移和平均滑动速率估算的断裂起始右旋走滑时间在2.7Ma之后.结合前人对高原东北缘扩展的认识,根据褶皱变形和断裂活动的先后关系分析,在上新世末(~2.7Ma),青藏高原的北东扩展到达三关口-牛首山一带,导致该区域地层发生广泛的褶曲变形和区域性抬升;到第四纪初,受青藏高原东北向推挤和鄂尔多斯地块逆时针旋转的联合作用,三关口-牛首山断裂开始右旋走滑活动,形成了青藏高原东北缘弧形构造带扩展的最前缘边界.     

甘孜-玉树断裂带东南段晚第四纪活动性研究

以甘孜-玉树断裂带东南段的地质地貌为研究对象,在遥感解译的基础上,通过对典型地区的详细野外调查和探槽研究对该段晚第四纪活动性进行研究。在断裂沿线的生康乡、仁果乡、错阿乡、日阿乡进行了断错地貌分析和晚第四纪滑动速率计算, 生康区的水平滑动速率为(7.6±0.5)mm/a, 垂直滑动速率为(1.1±0.1)mm/a; 仁果区的水平滑动速率为(8.0±0.3)mm/a,垂直滑动速率为(1.1±0.1)mm/a; 错阿区的水平滑动速率为(10.3±0.4)mm/a; 日阿区的水平滑动速率为(10.8±0.8)mm/a, 垂直滑动速率为(1.1±0.1)mm/a。在仁果乡和错阿乡进行了探槽研究,两处探槽都揭示了多次古地震事件,虽然揭露的断层构造样式有所不同,但总体上都是以走滑为主兼有一定的逆冲分量。综合古地震事件和滑动速率分析表明,甘孜-玉树断裂带东南段晚第四纪尤其是全新世以来活动剧烈。     

南迦巴瓦构造结西侧里龙断裂晚第四纪活动特征

本文通过卫星影像解译、地质地貌调查、地质探槽开挖、断错地貌测量和样品年代学测试,对南迦巴瓦构造结西侧的里龙断裂晚第四纪活动特征进行了分析和研究,结果表明:里龙断裂是一条以右旋走滑活动为主、兼有挤压逆冲的北北西向断裂,其最新活动时代为全新世;该断裂晚第四纪以来的平均水平滑动速率为3-4mm/a,平均垂直滑动速率为0.10-0.15mm/a。研究还表明,南迦巴瓦构造结晚第四纪以来的向北俯冲运动已经停止,喜马拉雅东构造结地区的构造变形主要受阿萨姆构造结的俯冲影响。     

青藏高原东北缘冷龙岭断裂全新世左旋滑动速率

冷龙岭断裂是青藏高原东北缘1条重要的左旋走滑断裂,断裂滑动速率对于青藏高原东北缘构造形变的动力学研究以及认识断裂的活动习性和地震危险性具有重要意义。但是,冷龙岭断裂的滑动速率仍然存在较大争议,被限定在3~24mm/a一个较为宽泛的范围内。文中以青海省门源县他里花沟上游走滑断裂断错地貌现象较为典型的牛头沟地区(37.440 2°N,102.094 0°E)和柴陇地区(37.447 3°N,102.063 0°E)作为研究对象,采用地基LiDAR获取的高分辨率DEM和高精度Google Earth卫星影像对断错地貌进行了位错演化模式分析和位错量的恢复测量,结合地貌面上开挖地层探坑和剥离新鲜地层剖面上的年代样品采集与测试,确定了断错地貌面的废弃年代。在牛头沟地区和柴陇地区得到的滑动速率分别为(6.4±0.7)mm/a和(6.6±0.3)mm/a,2个研究地区获得的结果存在较好的一致性。考虑到滑动速率的误差范围,认为冷龙岭断裂全新世以来的左旋滑动速率为(6.4±0.7)mm/a,该滑动速率介于前人采用地质方法获得的结果中间,也在In SAR得到的滑动速率4.2~8mm/a范围内,但比GPS速率((4.0±1.0)mm/a)稍大。祁连-海原断裂带弧形分布的晚第四纪滑动速率在冷龙岭地区达到最大,青藏高原东北缘在该地区最强烈的隆升也从1个侧面证实了冷龙岭断裂在调节青藏高原相对于戈壁-阿拉善地块向E运动方面所处的重要地位。     

滇西南地区孟连断裂晚第四纪走滑速率的厘定

通过卫星影像解译和野外实地调查,获得滇西南地区孟连断裂的几何特征和活动性参数。孟连断裂总体走向NE-NEE向,不具有明显的分段性,连续性较好。断裂从单侧控制着沿线的勐滨、孟连和勐马三个新生代盆地的发育。断裂沿线地貌以线性较好的断层谷、断层崖和断层陡坎为主,并发育多级左旋位错的河流、冲沟和阶（台）地等,观测到的最小左旋位错约为7 m。采用高精度Li-DAR测量方法,对4处典型水平位错地貌进行精细测量,根据获得的相应地貌面年代,得到孟连断裂晚第四纪以来平均左旋走滑速率为2.2±0.4 mm/a。其结果与滇西南地区其他NE向左旋走滑断裂滑动速率相当,反映了区域构造活动的整体协调性。根据跨断层地质体最大左旋位错量9.5±1.8 km,估算断裂开始左旋走滑的时代为距今4.7±1.6 Ma左右,即中新世中晚期。     

滇西南地区孟连断裂晚第四纪新活动特征初步研究

孟连断裂位于云南省西南部与缅甸交界地带,是川滇菱形块体南部一条规模较大的活动断裂带,总体呈NEE向延伸,长约90km,走向N70°E,倾向NW,倾角50°~60°,断裂晚第四纪活动较强烈,以左旋走滑为主,兼具有倾滑特征。通过卫星影像解译和野外调查发现,其断错地貌主要以线性断层崖为主,高度不等,其次为断层谷地、断层沟槽和断层垭口地貌,冲沟及阶地的水平位移多在几十米至几百米之间。在孟连县城西侧开挖的大型探槽中,揭露出多条断层,通过分析剖面和14C测年结果认为,孟连断裂晚第四纪发生过4次古地震事件,除最早一次年代较久远以外,其他3次均发生在全新世中晚期以来,最近一次古地震事件的年代为(1 860±30)~(1 090±30)a B.P.。     

Dextral strike-slip of Sanguankou-Niushoushan fault zone and extension of arc tectonic belt in the northeastern margin of the Tibet Plateau

The kinematic characteristics of the Sanguankou-Niushoushan fault(SGK-NSSF) are of great significance to the understanding of the extension of the arc tectonic belt in the northeastern margin of the Tibet Plateau. Using field surveys and various data collection methods, including large-scale geological mapping, measurement of typical topographies, and dating of sedimentary strata, it was determined that the SGK-NSSF exhibits obvious dextral strike-slip characteristics and thus is not a sinistral strike-slip fault, as believed by previous researchers. The results of this study show that the geological boundaries for the Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic eras were all dextrally dislocated by the fault, with the faulted displacements being similar. The maximum strike-slip displacement of the fault, after elimination of topographic effects, was found to be 961±6 m. The Sanguankou fault at the northern section exhibits obvious characteristics of more recent activities, with a series of small gullies having undergone synchronized dextral writhing after traversing the fault. The average horizontal slip rate of the fault since the late Quaternary was determined to be approximately 0.35 mm/a. The pre-existing fold structures formed during the late Pliocene were dislocated by the fault and became ex situ, indicating that dextral strike-slip of the fault could not have occurred prior to the late Pliocene. The maximum displacements and average slip rates were used to estimate the onset time of the dextral strike-slip activities of the fault as being after 2.7 Ma. In this study, the understanding of previous researchers concerning the extension in the northeastern margin of the Tibet Plateau was combined with analyses of the successive relationships between fold deformations and fault activities. This led to the finding that the extension in the northeastern margin of the Tibet Plateau reached the vicinity of the SGK-NSSF during the late Pliocene(~2.7 Ma), causing regional uplift and fold deformations of the strata there. During the early Quaternary, the northeastern compression of the Tibet Plateau and the counterclockwise rotation of the Ordos block collectively resulted in the dextral strike-slip activities of the SGK-NSSF. This then formed the foremost margin of the arc tectonic belt extension in the northeastern margin of the Tibet Plateau.     

丽江-小金河断裂全新世滑动速率研究

丽江-小金河断裂与锦屏山断裂共同控制着青藏高原东南边界,研究该断裂的滑动速率有助于理解青藏高原东南缘区域变形模式。本文通过高分辨率遥感影像解译与野外地质调查,发现该断裂错断了一系列河流阶地与洪积扇,且以左旋走滑为主兼具倾滑分量。通过无人机断错地貌测量与碳同位素断代,获得红星-尖山营断裂段全新世左旋走滑速率为（3.32±0.22）mm/a,垂直滑动速率为（0.35±0.02）mm/a;汝南-南溪断裂段北支全新世左旋走滑速率为（2.37±0.20）mm/a。     

滇西南地区汉母坝-澜沧断裂晚第四纪构造活动的地质地貌证据

通过对汗母坝-澜沧断裂晚第四纪地质、地貌实地调查与测量,并结合前人研究成果,讨论了该断裂晚第四纪最新构造活动特征。综合分析认为,汗母坝-澜沧断裂为一条以右旋走滑为主的全新世活动断裂,长约120 km,整体走向NNW。该断裂活动习性具有明显的分段特征,北段称为汗母坝断裂,是1988年耿马7.2级地震的发震断裂;南段称为澜沧断裂,是1988年澜沧7.6级地震的发震断裂之一。晚第四纪以来其新活动形成了丰富的断错地貌现象,如冲沟和山脊右旋位错、断层沟槽、断层垭口、断层陡坎、断陷凹坑等。根据断裂断错地貌特征的相应资料估计,该断裂晚第四纪右旋走滑速率约为(4.7±0.5) mm/a。     

甘孜—玉树断裂当江段晚第四纪滑动速率

甘孜—玉树断裂带是青藏高原中东部的一条大型左旋走滑断裂带,同时也是羌塘地体和巴颜喀拉地体的重要地质边界.当江断裂位于甘孜—玉树断裂带的西北段,沿线发育当江荣、当江和哲达等一系列串珠状第四纪断层谷地.通过遥感影像解译和数字高程地形模型(DEM)数据分析,结合野外构造地貌调查,以及断错地貌面的光释光年代测定,发现断裂沿线冲沟、河流阶地和洪积扇等断错地貌发育,反映了该断裂晚第四纪左旋走滑活动性强烈.该断裂最新活动时代为全新世晚期,距今约3.04 ka.当江断裂晚更新世以来的左旋滑动速率为7±3mm·a~(-1).研究结果为该区的地震危险性分析和高原东北部的运动学特征探讨提供了基础资料.     

Average slip rate,earthquake rupturing segmentation and recurrence behavior on the Litang fault zone,western Sichuan Province,China

The Litang fault zone (LFZ) is an important active fault within the northwestern Sichuan sub-block. To-gether with the Garzê-Yushu, Xianshuihe, and An-ninghe fault zones on its northern, eastern and south-eastern sides, the LFZ constitutes the lateral extrusion tectonic system in the southeastern part of the Qing-hai-Tibetan Plateau[1,2] (Fig. 1). According to instru-mental records, historical recordings and field investi- gation, an earthquake (Ms7.3) occurred on its middle to south se…     

Faulting on the Anninghe fault zone, Southwest China in Late Quaternary and its movement model

The Anninghe fault is one of the significant earthquake-generating fault zones in the Southwest China. Local his-torical record shows that a M≥7 strong earthquake occurred in the year of 1536. On the basis of the detailed air-photographic interpretation and field investigation, we have acquired the following knowledge: 1 The average sinistral strike-slip rate since the Late Pleistocene is about 3~7 mm/a; 2 There is important reverse faulting along the fault zone besides the main left-lateral strike-slip motion, and the shortening rate across the Anninghe fault zone due to the reverse faulting is about 1.7~4.0 mm/a. If the Xianshuihe fault zone is simply partitioned into the Anninghe and Daliangshan faults, we can also get a slip rate of 3~7 mm/a along the Daliangshan fault zone, which is the same as that on the Anninghe fault zone. Moreover, on the basis of our field investigation and the latest knowledge concerning the active tectonics of Tibetan crust, we create a dynamic model for the Anninghe fault zone.     

Discovery of the Longriba fault zone in eastern Bayan Har block,China and its tectonic implication

Re-measured GPS data have recently revealed that a broad NE trending dextral shear zone exists in the eastern Bayan Har block about 200 km northwest of the Longmenshan thrust on the eastern margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The strain rate along this shear zone may reach up to 4-6 mm/a. Our interpretation of satellite images and field observations indicate that this dextral shear zone corresponds to a newly generated NE trending Longriba fault zone that has been ignored before. The northeast segment of the Longriba fault zone consists of two subparallel N54°±5°E trending branch faults about 30 km apart, and late Quaternary offset landforms are well developed along the strands of these two branch faults. The northern branch fault, the Longriqu fault, has relatively large reverse component, while the southern branch fault, the Maoergai fault, is a pure right-lateral strike slip fault. According to vector synthesizing principle, the average right-lateral strike slip rate along the Longriba fault zone in the late Quaternary is calculated to be 5.4±2.0 mm/a, the vertical slip rate to be 0.7 mm/a, and the rate of crustal shortening to be 0.55 mm/a. The discovery of the Longriba fault zone may provide a new insight into the tectonics and dynamics of the eastern margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Taken the Longriba fault zone as a boundary, the Bayan Har block is divided into two sub-blocks: the Ahba sub-block in the west and the Longmenshan sub-block in the east. The shortening and uplifting of the Longmenshan sub-block as a whole reflects that both the Longmenshan thrust and Longriba fault zone are subordinated to a back propagated nappe tectonic system that was formed during the southeastward motion of the Bayan Har block owing to intense resistance of the South China block. This nappe tectonic system has become a boundary tectonic type of an active block supporting crustal deformation along the eastern margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau from late Cenozoic till now. The Longriba fault zone is just an active fault zone newly-generated in late Quaternary along this tectonic system.
