1995年7月22日甘肃永登5.8级地震断层形变前兆分析

甘肃东南景泰—海原—陇西—永登—带是历史上强震从集发生的地区。1995年7月22日永登5.8级地震是本地区平静近五年的第一个5级地震,从而显示出本地区的地震活动在平静了50年之后又开始活动。本地区位于黄河上游,峡谷丛生地貌复杂。其地质构造为陇西旋卷构造,大体上接近巨型东西构造带和西北构造带的汇合部位,还有河西系北北西向断裂穿越,所以区域应力状态比较复杂。这次永登5.8级地震前断层形变测点有较好的中短期前兆异常。因此这次震例分析对于识别和提取地震前兆信息,以及做好本区今后的强震预测工作有着积极意义。     

关于河西走廊盆地榆木山北缘断裂晚第四纪活动特征的新认识

榆木山北缘活动断裂属于河西走廊中段盆地内的次级隆起——榆木山隆起北侧断裂系的组成部分,它位于榆木山北缘断裂北侧山前,是与榆木山隆起有成生联系、活动时间很新的现代活动断裂。榆木山北缘活动断裂呈向北北东略微凸出的弧形,走向总体为北西向,倾向南西,自南东向北西走向由北西向渐变为北西西向,甚至近东西向,倾角自中等—低角度,东段较陡。榆木山北缘断裂的活动性质在剖面上表现为以南西盘向上逆冲为主,水平位移不明显,特别是中段的石炭口—窑儿沟口一带,在向南缓倾的主逆冲上盘往往发育反向逆冲断层,并导致上更新统砂砾层发生牵引褶皱。该断裂在距今13.1～13.3ka之间和距今3～5ka期间发生过2次明显的新构造活动。     

高台车站断裂全新世活动特征

高台车站断裂属于河西走廊内次级隆起——榆木山隆起北侧断裂系的组成部分,它位于榆木山北缘断裂北侧6km、是与榆木山隆起有成生联系、活动时间比北缘断裂更新的现代活动断裂。高台车站断裂呈向北北东略微凸出的弧形,走向总体为北西向,倾向南西,自南东向北西走向由北西向渐变为北西西、甚至近东西向,倾角自中等变化为低角度。高台车站断裂的活动性质在剖面上表现为南西盘向上逆冲为主、水平位移不明显,在近两万年以来的晚更新世晚期—全新世期间,该断裂可能发生过5期明显的新构造活动,活动时间具有自东向西逐渐变新的迁移性特点,最新一次在2.0~3.0ka左右,与高台地震时间是吻合的,它是高台地震的发震构造。     

南天山东段榆树沟-铜花山巨型构造混杂带的发现及意义

通过遥感构造综合解析，认为南天山东段榆树沟-铜花山地区为一巨型构造混杂带。该构造带可划分为南部和北部的两带变质褶皱地层系统、中带的构造混杂系统和不同期次的岩浆侵入体。结合同位素定年和岩浆侵入的综合对比与研究，认为该地区先后经历了五期构造运动，分别为：①南北向逆冲推覆，②北西西向左行走滑，⑧北西西向右行走滑，④南北向逆冲推覆，⑤北北西、北东向断裂。     

对祁连山北缘榆木山隆起的质疑

榆木山地块位于祁连山北缘,介于酒东、民乐盆地之间,它们共同属于祁连山褶皱带北缘北北西向的山前坳陷带。长期以来一直认为它是燕山运动晚期形成的北北西向分割酒东、民乐盆地的断隆。依据对梨园河一带榆木山西缘断裂的识别,并结合对地块的构造属性及相邻两盆地中、新生代沉积演化特征的分析,对“榆木山断隆”的构造属性提出质疑,认为它可能是祁连山北缘断裂系向北东叠瓦状逆冲作用形成的推覆片体。这一认识将为河西走廊盆地的油气、水资源评价提出新的勘探思路。     

青藏高原东北隅马衔山断裂带及周缘白垩纪—新生代沉积和构造变形历史

马衔山断裂带地处青藏高原东北隅陇中盆地的腹地, 分隔了北部的兰州盆地和南部临夏盆地, 该断裂带的变形特征记录了该地区白垩纪—新生代时期的构造演化历史。本文通过对马衔山断裂带的运动学分析并结合区域地层序列, 建立了三阶段的变形历史。第一阶段近WNW–ESE向伸展作用控制了马衔山断陷盆地的伸展断陷和早白垩世河湖相沉积, 在晚白垩世晚期—古新世早期(~80–60 Ma)在NNW–SSE向挤压作用下, 断裂发生右旋走滑活动, 盆地挤压反转。该阶段的断层活动和盆地发育的板块动力主要来自亚洲大陆南部和东部陆缘新特提斯洋—古太平洋俯冲汇聚。第二阶段表征为古近纪(~60–23 Ma)构造挤压与走滑拉分盆地的发育, 晚古新世—晚始新世地层主要分布在西宁盆地、兰州盆地、马衔山东南段等区域, 在马衔山地区这期挤压应力方向为NNE向, 是印度—欧亚大陆碰撞的远程响应。第三阶段为中新世(~23 Ma–)时期。早期(~23–13 Ma)马衔山北缘断裂以正断层活动为主, 控制了断裂带东南段中新世红黏土沉积, 引张应力方向为NNW–SSE。中新世晚期(~13 Ma起)以来, 构造应力体制转变为ENE–WSW挤压, 其造成马衔山地区周缘山系的快速隆升。     

鄂西弧形构造变形特征及成因机制

对川东-湘鄂西断褶带内鄂西地区的弧形构造,从构造剖面特征、叠加褶皱样式和断裂性质入手进行几何学和运动学分析。结果发现鄂西弧形构造具有多期变形特征:早期普遍为北东东向的直线型褶皱,随着弧形带扩展,在东、西两翼分别发育右行和左行的逆冲-走滑断裂,同时分别形成北北东向和北西西向的弧形褶皱。晚期弧形带中部发育北北东向构造并叠加改造了早期北东东和北西西向褶皱,同时在黄陵背斜以西还发育交切早期构造的北北西向仙女山右行走滑断裂。根据弧形带扩展的几何学-运动学分类原则,并结合前人的古地磁研究结果,推测鄂西弧形构造应属于构造弯曲形成的弯曲弧。区域滑脱层和黄陵隆起阻挡可能是控制弧形样式的主要原因。区域滑脱层控制了拆离滑脱褶皱的构造样式; 黄陵基底隆起的阻挡作用使弧形带东翼进一步弯曲变形,并导致了构造应力场方向发生改变,造成了晚期北北东向与早期北东东向构造的叠加。由此恢复的鄂西弧形构造变形过程对于揭示川东-湘鄂西断褶带构造演化具有重要的指示意义。     

中国活动构造与地震活动

文中研究了中国活动构造与地震活动的关系 ,包括活动断裂、活动褶皱、活动盆地和活动块体与地震活动的关系。全部 8级、绝大部分 7～ 7.9级地震均发生在活动块体边界活动构造带内 ;但对内部有次级活动构造的块体而言 ,少数 7～ 7.9级地震和部分 6～ 6 .9级地震也可能发生在块体内部的活动构造带上。大地震与活动断裂、活动褶皱和活动盆地的关系十分紧密 ,70多次 7级以上地震的同震破裂带及其位移参数与活动构造完全一致 ,7～ 8级地震均发生在活动断裂、活动褶皱和活动盆地带内 ,仅个别地震由于发生在高原和高山区 ,情况不明 ,6～ 6 .9级地震则大约有 5 %～ 15 %发生在活动构造带外或者情况不明。由于中国各断块区应力环境的差别 ,各区活动构造变形和地震发震构造类型也有所不同 ,文中对不同构造区走滑型 ,逆断裂褶皱型和正断裂拉张型活动构造和地震发震构造模型作了讨论。     

从德令哈地震分析青藏高原北缘东段的深部构造活动

在祁连山南北布设的10台REFTEK宽频地震仪器记录到了2003年4月发生在仪器台阵范围内的6．7级地震及其数十次余震,提供了研究青藏高原北缘深部构造的新资料,对3级以上震源的定位和震源机制研究结果表明,柴达木盆地北缘逆冲左行走滑断裂东段的宗务隆山逆冲断裂在南北挤压作用下引发了此次地震活动,是陆陆碰撞和内陆俯冲的结果,青藏高原北缘的走滑断裂在浅部呈缓倾斜,深部往往以较陡的产状向下延伸。震源区的构造分析证实了印度板块岩石圈的超深俯冲作用对高原北缘的影响,受南北向应力作用影响形成的走滑断裂近东西向的位移目前仍很剧烈。     

西秦岭北缘构造带的新生代构造活动——兼论对青藏高原东北缘形成过程的指示意义

西秦岭北缘构造带是青藏高原东北部一条重要的北西西向构造带,它由一组近于平行的断裂组成,中部发育活动的左旋走滑断裂,两侧发育向外扩展的多条逆冲断裂,剖面上呈向北偏心的花状构造。自古近纪中晚期以来西秦岭北缘构造带成为青藏高原早期的北东边界,其新生代构造活动控制了两侧的新生代盆地沉积演化和构造变形。在构造带南侧滩歌盆地自古近纪中晚期堆积了一套厚度较大的砾岩和砂岩地层,但未见新近纪地层;沿西秦岭北缘构造带中部在中新世形成具有剪切拉张性质的武山—漳县盆地,沉积了厚度超过千米的砾岩、砂岩和泥岩序列;在构造带北侧陇西盆地从古近纪中晚期至中新世晚期一直处于前陆盆地发育阶段,沉积了连续的新生代地层序列。在中新世晚期以后,整个构造带遭受挤压变形,逆冲活动强烈,中部的武山—漳县盆地和北侧的陇西盆地相继消亡,新生代地层发生强烈构造变形,位于构造带南侧的滩歌盆地也同时发生轻微缩短变形。第四纪晚期以来西秦岭北缘构造带断裂活动主要表现为左旋走滑运动方式,而逆冲断裂活动则迁移到了北东方向的海原断裂和香山—天景山断裂(又称中卫—同心断裂)等构造带之上,实现了大区域范围内的应变分配。     

The terrestrial fauna of the Late Triassic Pant-y-ffynnon Quarry fissures,South Wales,UK and a new species of Clevosaurus (Lepidosauria: Rhynchocephalia)

Pant-y-ffynnon Quarry in South Wales yielded a rich cache of fossils in the early 1950s, including articulated specimens of new species (the small sauropodomorph dinosaur Pantydraco caducus and the crocodylomorph Terrestrisuchus gracilis), but no substantial study of the wider fauna of the Pant-y-ffynnon fissure systems has been published. Here, our overview of existing specimens, a few described but mostly undescribed, as well as freshly processed material, provides a comprehensive picture of the Pant-y-ffynnon palaeo-island of the Late Triassic. This was an island with a relatively impoverished fauna dominated by small clevosaurs (rhynchocephalians), including a new species, Clevosaurus cambrica, described here from a partially articulated specimen and isolated bones. The new species has a dental morphology that is intermediate between the Late Triassic Clevosaurus hudsoni, from Cromhall Quarry to the east, and the younger C. convallis from Pant Quarry to the west, suggesting adaptive radiation of clevosaurs in the palaeo-archipelago. The larger reptiles on the palaeo-island do not exceed 1.5?m in length, including a small carnivorous crocodylomorph, Terrestrisuchus, and a possible example of insular dwarfism in the basal dinosaur Pantydraco.     

The effect of water on accessory phase solubility in subaluminous and peralkaline granitic melts

The solubilities of columbite, tantalite, wolframite, rutile, zircon and hafnon were determined as a function of the water contents in peralkaline and subaluminous granite melts. All experiments were conducted at 1035 °C and 2 kbar and the water contents of the melts ranged from nominally dry to approximately 6 wt.% H₂O. Accessory phase solubilities are not affected by the water content of the peralkaline melt. By contrast, solubilities are affected by the water content of the subaluminous melt, where the solubilities of all the accessory phases examined increase with the water content of the melt, up to 2 wt.% H₂O. At higher water contents, solubilities are nearly constant. It can be concluded that water is not an important control of accessory phase solubility, although the water content will affect diffusivities of components in the melt, thus whether or not accessory phases will be present as restite material. The solubility behaviour in the subaluminous and peralkaline melts supports previous spectroscopic studies, which have observed differences in the coordination of high field strength elements in dry vs. wet subaluminous granitic glasses, but not for peralkaline granitic glasses. Lastly, the fact that wolframite solubility increases with increasing water content in the subaluminous melt suggests that tungsten dissolved as a hexavalent species.     

Quaternary stresses revealed by calcite twinning inversion: insights from observations in the Savonnières underground quarry (eastern France)

Calcite samples were extracted both from the rock matrix and the superficial coating of a karstified fault plane of an underground quarry, located in the eastern border of the Paris basin. The karstification is dated as Quaternary. Analysis of mechanical calcite twinning reveals that only the calcite matrix has also undergone a compression trending WNW that can be attributed to the Mio-Pliocene alpine collision. Both coating and matrix have undergone a strike-slip regime with σ₁ roughly trending north–south, that could correspond to the regional present-day state of stress, a strike-slip compression rather trending NNW, modified by local phenomena.
