河套地震带的b值时空变化特征分析

本文以b值作为研究对象,在b值由应力状态和介质性质共同决定的理论框架下,开展了河套地震带的b值时空变化特征分析。选取1970年发生在河套地震带的ML≥1.5地震作为考察对象,运用EMR方法定量检测了最小完整性震级Mc的时序非均匀变化,并根据研究区地震活动实况,确定b值的起算震级为ML2.0。运用最小二乘法进行了b值时间扫描计算,结果显示,b值时序变化较好地对应了研究时段内的中强地震活动、台网分布和余震剔除等变化因素。运用极大似然法进行了b值空间扫描计算,结果显示,河套地震带的b值空间差异可能由地壳介质体性质和应力环境共同引起,相对来讲,b值的构造相依特征更为明显。此外,满足各震级档有足够多的地震样本依然是提高b值计算精度的关键环节。     

吉林前郭震群b值的深度变化特征分析

对2013年前郭地区发生的5.8级震群,联合使用固定台和流动台台站资料,整理了2013年10月31日至2015年2月28日期间发生在前郭震群地区的地震序列目录,严格筛选出404次地震事件的P波和S波到时数据,应用基于MATLAB的Z-MAP软件分析了地震目录最小完整性震级1.4,选取震级大于1.4的地震系统地分析了b值随深度的变化,发现研究区b值随深度变化有减小的趋势,具体表现在:地壳的浅部(0~4km)b值较大,在4~8 km范围内b值逐渐减小,且在8 km深度b值最小,8~10 km深度处b值进一步升高。b值随深度的这种复杂变化,表明本区域的地壳结构相对较复杂,结构分层比较明显,这种现象的物理机制可以从介质的应力状态及介质性质得到较好的解释,地震较易发生在地壳介质相对均匀,围岩压力较高的深度处,推测研究区域中强震多发生在4 km以下。     

江淮地区地震精定位及b值随深度的变化研究

使用双差地震定位法,利用安徽及邻省50个地震台站记录的1976年到2008年的551次M_L≥2.3地震,其中初始定位有205个无深度数据,包括数字化资料和传统的模拟资料,共5464条P波走时资料。经重新定位后得到其中468次地震的基本参数。重新定位结果显示了本地区较精细的震中分布图像和震源深度剖面图像,震源深度优势分布在6—10km,平均深度为10km,部分震中位置与震源深度变化较大的地震向断裂带靠近。基于地震精确定位结果,系统地计算了不同深度段的b值,发现研究区b值随震源深度的增加具有系统减小的趋势,且在地壳10km左右的减小趋势最为突出。表明江淮地区的地壳分层结构相对明显,在地壳浅部(0—10km)以小震为主,大地震较少,故b值高;而在深处(10—25km),大地震相对较多,b值减小。这一现象的背后物理机制可以从地壳介质复杂程度与应力状态的变化得以解释,破裂易于在地壳介质相对均匀、岩石静压力较高的地壳深处成核形成大地震。推测江淮地区未来强震多发生在10km以下的地壳深部。     

地壳介质非均匀性对华北地区强震活动的影响

华北地区是我国地震灾害最频繁的地区之一,该区域的强震空间分布可能与地壳介质的不均匀性有关.本文建立了华北地区岩石圈三维Maxwell模型,并尝试采用剪切波分裂参数为新的约束条件,对区域地壳运动场和应力应变场进行了模拟,探讨地壳介质不均匀性与区域地震活动的关系.研究结果表明:外部动力源控制了华北地区整体的地壳运动方式,地...     

中国及邻区水平最大主应力迹线的绘制与亟需解决的问题

<正>中国及邻区现代构造应力场在空间分布上表现为大区域同一性与局域的非均匀特征,在时间上具有相对的持续稳定性。然而,中国现代构造应力场的格局明显受制于周边板块的动力学作用,东部的力源主要来自太平洋板块俯冲、菲律宾板块推挤的作用,西部的力源则来自印度板块向北碰撞欧亚大陆而产生的挤压。由于中国大陆地壳复杂的构造格局以及地壳固体介质的不均匀性,这些驱动作用传递引起的地壳应力状态的分布是不均匀的,从而现代构造应力场也具有明显的分区性,表现为不同地区应力方向、应力类型     

天山地震成因带的地壳应力状态

由地震学(地震)、地球动力学(现代运动)、地质(造山作用)资料得出,天山地震成因带地壳处于复杂的应力状态中,目前造成应力作用的因素不清楚,因而,不能对地壳内大地构造过程增强或减弱的时间和强度作出预测。但是,我们研究了可能能量源的作用,这有助于解释地壳内现代构造及其引发的地震。地球体内的应力取决于内生(地球起源)力和外营(宇宙成因)力。9.1内生力地球内部地质作用的能量特征是不一样的。9.1.1地壳结构不均匀性的应力天山地震成因带地壳的内部结构是不均匀的,地层成分和厚度的不均匀性形成密度和压力随深度分布的大差异。压力P由…

河北平原地震带b值时空变化特征

利用华北地区近44年地震资料,在区域地震序列完整性分析的基础上,用最小二乘法进行b值时间扫描计算,用最大似然法进行b值空间扫描计算。时间扫描中的b值为研究区内每个扫描窗口的平均b值,因此其变化幅度不大,基本保持在0.62~1.05之间。研究区b值空间分布范围基本维系在0.5~1.4,低b值区域为昌平—宝坻断裂段和唐山—迁安断裂段,变化范围为0.5~0.7,表明该区域地壳介质正处于相对高应力或闭锁状态,存在未来可能发生中强以上地震的潜在危险。     

2019年四川长宁MS6.0地震前破裂区内视应力和b值的变化

视应力和b值都可以反映地壳应力变化。当应力增加时,视应力会增加,而b值降低。因此,应力变化将导致视应力和b值之间呈负相关关系,即,根据视应力和b值之间的负相关关系可以研究地壳构造应力的变化。本文利用2000年1月—2019年12月长宁M_S6.0地震破裂区内3.0≤M_L≤3.6地震的视应力和2.0≤M_L≤4.3地震目录,研究了视应力和b值随时间的变化,发现:2013年2月—2017年3月间,视应力呈趋势上升变化,历时约4年,在震前两年时间内,视应力仍维持在较高水平。在视应力呈趋势上升变化期间,b值则呈趋势下降变化。当视应力维持在较高水平时,b值则维持在较低水平。即,长宁M_S6.0地震发生前,破裂区内视应力增加,同时b值下降。这表明,2019年长宁M_S6.0地震发生前破裂区内存在明显的构造应力增加过程,对地震孕育过程的认识和地震预测研究都具有启示意义。      

多层介质中利用sPn与Pn到时差确定震源深度的研究

为利用sPn与Pn波的走时差测定震源深度,进一步提高地震震源深度的测定精度,推导多层介质下sPn与Pn波的走时差与震源深度的关系,发现走时差与震中距无关,只与震源深度及区域地壳速度模型有关。震源在同一层中,走时差曲线的斜率不变,而当震源位于不同层中时,sPn-Pn走时差曲线的斜率不同,并呈分段直线的走时差曲线形态。地壳速度结构纵向越不均匀,多层和单层介质下利用sPn-Pn走时差计算的震源深度误差就越大,走时曲线的各分段直线斜率相差越大;探讨地壳中sPn与Pn波传播路径相同但波速不同的单层地壳速度模型,发现单层介质下波速越大,测定的震源深度越大;对于同一地区相同的地壳分层结构,测得的震源深度随着泊松比的增大而减小。基于前人给出的中国五个典型块体多层平均地壳模型,给出sPn-Pn走时差与震源深度计算公式速查表。     

On the state of stress in the near-surface of the earth's crust

Five models for near-surface crustal stresses induced by gravity and horizontal deformation and the influence of rock property contrasts, rock strength, and stress relaxation on these stresses are presented. Three of the models—the lateral constraint model, the model for crustal stresses caused by horizontal deformation, and the model for the effects of anisotropy—are linearly elastic. The other two models assume that crustal rocks are brittle or viscoelastic in order to account for the effects of rock strength and time on near-surface stresses. It is shown that the lateral constraint model is simply a special case of the combined gravity-and deformation-induced stress field when horizontal strains vanish and that the inclusion of the effect of rock anisotropy in the solution for crustal stresses caused by gravity and horizontal deformation broadens the range for predicted stresses. It is also shown that when stress levels in the crust reach the limits of brittle rock strength, these stresses become independent of strain rates and that stress relaxation in ductile crustal rocks subject to constant horizontal strain rates causes horizontal stresses to become independent of time in the long term.     

用地面核磁共振方法评估含水层涌水量的实例

地面核磁共振(NMR)方法是地球物理上采用的探测地下水的最新方法,能够探测地下含水层中的自由水.但是有时会出现对地下含水层的出水量判断失误的现象,这种失误发生的主要原因是由于IRIS仪器设计时假设利用NMR信号的弛豫时问就能够区分地下含水层中的自由水和束缚水,实际上弛豫时间取决于以下几个参数即:孔隙度、渗透率和导水率.地层孔隙水中氢质子弛豫时间不仅与其本身的弛豫特点有关,还与岩石孔隙结构、成份密切相关.为了更好的理解以上这些参数对地下含水层涌水量的影响,本文讨论了含水多孔介质的弛豫特性,研究有效孔隙度与含水量之间的关系,给出计算渗透率和导水率的方法,利用几个实测地点数据资料分析地下含水层岩性对涌水量的影响,结果表明地层中平均含水量大而且含水地层弛豫时间较长的地点才能获得较大的涌水量.     

豫北地区地震活动性及其与区域地壳运动的关系

本根据地震地质和地震分布条带,把豫北地区从西至东分为弱,中,强三个区段。由于区域地壳深部主断裂和大震活动的牵动作用,是造成本地震活动的重要原因,因而从区域地壳块体活动背景上探讨了本区及邻近地区地震活动趋势,中还指出,豫北西部太行山区的林县－薄壁地震带,虽不具有强震构造背景,但小震年月频率多寡和震群活动,却能反映了大区域地壳应力场强弱,亦可作为判断区域性地震活动的指标。     

CRUSTAL ANISOTROPY AND ITS TECTONIC IMPLICATIONS IN THE CHONGQING REGION

The receiver function which carries the information of crustal materials is often used to study the shear-wave velocity of the crust as well as the crustal anisotropy. However, because of the low signal-to-noise ratio in Pms(P-to-S converted phase from the Moho), the crustal anisotropy obtained by shear-wave splitting technique for a single receiver function usually has large errors in general. Recent advance in the analysis method based on Pms arrival time varying with the back-azimuth change can effectively overcome the above defects. Thus in this paper, we utilize the azimuth variations of the Pms to study the crustal anisotropy in Chongqing region for the first time. According to the earthquake catalogue provided by USGS, seismic waveform of earthquakes with magnitude larger than 5.5 and epicenter distance range of 30°~90° between January 2015 and December 2016 are collected from 14 broadband seismic stations of Chongqing seismic network. We carry out the bootstrap resampling to test the reliability of the radial maximum energy method for the observation data. In addition, we also applied the receiver function H-Kappa analysis in this paper to study the crustal thickness and Poisson's ratio. Our results show the crustal thickness ranges from 40~50km, and there is a thin and thick crust in the southern and northern Chongqing, respectively. The crustal average Poisson's ratio ranges from 0.23~0.31, the Poisson's ratio reaches the maximum value in the central part of Chongqing, while the Poisson's ratio in the northern and southern parts of Chongqing is obviously low. We obtain the crustal anisotropy from 9 stations in total. The delay time of crustal anisotropy distributes between 0.08s and 0.48s, with the average value of 0.22s. Among them, the CHS, QIJ and WAZ stations in central Chongqing have relatively large crustal delay time(>0.3s), followed by ROC station in the western Chongqing(0.25s), while the delay time in CHK station in northern Chongqing and WAS station in southern Chongqing are 0.08s, showing relatively weak crustal anisotropy. The fast polarization directions(FPDs)also change obviously from south to north. In southern Chongqing, FPDs are dominant in NNE-SSW and NEE-SWW, while the FPDs in WAZ station change to NWW-SEE, and the FPDs appear to be NW-SE in CHK in the northern Chongqing. In general, the FPDs are sub-parallel to the strikes of faults in most areas of Chongqing areas. Combined with other results from GPS observations, tectonic stress field and XKS splitting measurements, the main conclusions can be suggested as following:The cracks preferred orientation in the upper crust is not the main source of crustal anisotropy in Chongqing area. The crust and lithospheric upper mantle in the eastern Sichuan fold belt(ESFB)and Sichuan-Guizhou fault fold belt(SGFFB)are decoupled, and the deformation characteristics in the north and south parts of ESFB and SGFFB is different. The complex tectonic deformation may exist beneath the mountain-basin boundary, causing the fast directions of crustal anisotropy different from that in other areas of ESFB and SGFFB. The faults with different strikes may weaken the strength of average crustal anisotropy in some areas. The crustal deformation in southern Dabashan nappe belt(DNB)may be mainly controlled by the fault structure.     

我国大陆地区大地热流与地壳厚度的变化

本文从我国大陆地区现有的热流观测和深部地球物理资料出发,对1°×1°网格平均热流值（q）与地壳厚度值（M）进行回归分析.结果表明,中国大陆地区作为一个整体,q-M之间存在良好的正相关关系;在111°E以东地区特别是在华北盆地,两者呈显著负相关关系.按地壳厚度分组和按热流值分组的统计结果具有相似的特征,在所有“一分为二”（即只分成小于和大于等于某一指定值）的分组系列中,高值范围的算例都呈显著正相关,回归直线斜率在0.4-2.8mW/（m²·km）的范围内,与国内外报道的地表岩石生热率值一致;而低值范围的算例均给不出清晰的相关关系.作者认为,上述统计结果是地壳岩石放射性生热贡献和来自深部的地幔热流在大地热流二元结构中所起的作用在不同情况下有所不同的体现.     

地壳的Q结构与观测结果的解释

本文分析了地壳Q结构对于实测Q值结果的影响。对已发表的大部分实测数据进行分析,结果表明地震波射线路径与Q值显著相关。因此,在对实测的Q值空间分布状况进行解释的时候,不仅要考虑地震波频率的影响,还应对射线路径—距离效应进行分析和校正。本文还按照现有中国大陆地壳速度模型计算了地震射线在水平层状介质中的传播路径及震中距与射线最低点深度的函数关系,给出了华北及西南部分地区地壳Q结构。     

帕米尔东北侧地壳结构研究

1998年在帕米尔东北侧伽师及其周边地区完成了两条深地震宽角反射/折射剖面. 结果表明,西昆仑、塔里木和天山在地壳速度结构、构造特征上显示出较大差异. 塔里木块体具有稳定地块的地壳结构特征,地壳平均速度较高(6.5km/s). 向南进入西昆仑,地壳明显增厚,厚度可达0km左右,且地壳平均速度偏低(6.0-6.2km/s),偏低的地壳平均速度主要来源于相对低速度的下地壳结构,反映了西昆仑褶皱系下地壳介质的特征. 向北进入天山后,地壳同样明显增厚,但增厚的程度低于西昆仑下,约为50-55km. 天山地壳同样具有明显低的平均速度(6.2km/s),显示了天山地壳相对"软"的特征,但天山地壳偏低的平均速度来源于广泛分布于中地壳的低速度层和速度偏低的下地壳. 在印度块体向北强烈推挤的作用下,该区地壳遭受强烈的不均匀变形,塔里木块体向南插入西昆仑下,向北插入天山下,形成了该区强烈地震频繁发生的深部构造环境.     

POISSON'S RATIO VARIATIONS OF CRUSTAL MEDIA BEFORE AND AFTER XINYUAN-HEJING MS6.6 EARTHQUAKE IN 2012

We analyzed the variation characteristics of Poisson's ratio in crustal media from January 2009 to December 2012 at 11 fixed seismic stations(for station SCH, it is from January 2006 to December 2012)within an epicenter distance of 200km of the Xinyuan-Hejing M_S6.6 earthquake in Xinjiang on June 30, 2012 using the methods of P wave receiver functions, H-κ stacking of receiver functions, and time sliding window, and obtained the following conclusions: (1)The crustal media's Poisson ratio of five stations in an epicenter distance less than 130km showed a significant and long-lasting decline about 2~3 years before Xinyuan-Hejing M_S6.6 earthquake. Taking the crustal Poisson ratio mean value as reference, the decrease ranges between 0.003 and 0.014, the decrease in 4 stations are more than twice the mean error. The variations of the Poisson's ratio in crust are characterized by "V" shape or "double V" shape. Earthquakes occur at the end of the formation of "V" shape. After the occurrence of earthquakes, the Poisson's ratio continues to rise. The earliest initial fall appeared in July 2009 at WUS station which has the minimum epicentral distance(77km). The Poisson ratio of the crustal media of 6 stations with epicentral distance more than 150km fluctuated up and down around the mean value, and there is no significant decline or persistent low value. (2)We analyzed the arrival-time variations of the quasi-repetitive receiver functions Ps converted wave(t_Ps)of the 3 stations WUS, SCH and XNY and found that the travel times of Ps converted waves became smaller in the crust before the earthquake and increased after the earthquake. (3)Through the comprehensive analysis on the descending process, decline ranges, variations process, duration of Poisson' ratio, the Ps converted waves arrival time variations, the original time of earthquake, and the number of stations, it is inferred that the cause for Poisson's ratio anomalous variations is the change of physical properties of crustal media in the process of earthquake preparation and occurrence. Since the variation characteristics of crustal media may be related to the earthquake magnitude, the size of seismogenic area, the medium properties under stations, and the focal distance, whether the medium variation characteristics exist before and after Xinyuan-Hejing M_S6.6 earthquake will need more earthquake cases analyses. (4)The H-κ stacking of receiver functions is used to calculate the velocity ratio. Because P-wave velocity is given, this method can only be applied when the Ps converted wave velocity of Moho surface of receiver functions changes before an earthquake. With the application of receiver functions to the analysis of more earthquake cases, we can gain more insights into the variation of crustal medium parameters during the seismogenic process. This observation indicates that the receiver function method may become a new approach to detect the Poisson's ratio change of the crustal media before strong earthquake under the condition of high seismic network density.
