王鸿祯先生陆内大地构造域的概念体系及其在大型叠合盆地研究中的应用

由于东亚古大陆具有非常复杂的大地构造格架和地质演化历史，板块构造学说在本地区的应用面临很大挑战。王鸿祯教授提出了大地构造域(tectonic domain)的概念作为大陆内部的一级大地构造单元，同时提出了岩石圈对接消减带(convergent lithosphere consumption zones)的概念作为大地构造域的边界。王鸿祯、李思田等基于上述概念编制了新一代的大地构造和主要含油气盆地分布图，其成果揭示了中国中西部主要大型叠合盆地(塔里木，四川，鄂尔多斯等)均分布于具有稳定前寒武纪基底的大地构造域中心部位，稳定的地质条件为大规模油气聚集提供了重要条件。多阶段的构造运动对应于构造域间的相互作用过程，并控制了盆地演化历史。

The concepts of inner-continental tectonic domain of Wang's theory and their application to the study of the largesized superimposed basins

It is a great challenge to us to apply the plate tectonic theory to the East Asia Paleo continent which has very complicated tectonic framework and geological evolution history. Prof. WANG Hongzhen proposed the tectonic domain concept as the first order tectonic unit in continent, and proposed the convergent lithosphere consumption zones as a boundary between the tectonic domains, and based upon the concepts a new tectonic and oil bearing basins map had been constructed. The main large superimposed basins (Tarim, Sichuan, Ordos, etc.) were all developed in the stable center area of the stable Precombrain basement. The relative stable condition may have been a very important condition for oil and gas accumulation. The multi stage tectonic movement controlled the basin evolution history and could be correlated with the interaction of geological events between the domains.
