构造地裂缝的成因与地震勘探

对典型构造地裂缝的空间分布、活动特征、成因机制等方面进行了论述，认为构造地裂缝的内因是地质断裂，外因是地下资源过量开采；在勘探构造地裂缝中，只要观测系统设计合理，参数选择准确，资料处理得当，地震勘探可以准确地给出地裂缝从十几m到几百m深度内的各项地质构造参数及在地表的位置，满足科研和工程的要求。     

河北平原隆尧地裂缝成因机理与模式研究

隆尧地裂缝是华北平原地区规模最大、活动性最强、灾害程度最为严重的构造地裂缝,但其与断裂之间的成因研究一直缺少系统的证明材料和完整的理论分析,即隆尧地裂缝与断裂之间是怎样的成生关系仍较为模糊。文章根据现场调查、探槽、地球物理探测和钻孔联合剖面等方法,分析了隆尧地裂缝几何运动特点和深部构造特征,探讨了隆尧地裂缝的成因机理和模式。研究结果表明:隆尧地裂缝（主要指西段）的发育位置与隆尧活动断裂基本重合,地裂缝走向近EW,倾向南,倾角60°~80°,南盘相对北盘下降,具正断性;同时,地裂缝面处黏土层中发育擦痕,上盘发育的分支裂缝与主裂缝相交成“y”型,地裂缝上下盘位移差随深度增加;地球物理探测解译隆尧活动断裂上断点埋深40~50 m,钻孔联合剖面揭示隆尧地裂缝向下延伸与隆尧活动断裂上断点吻合。地裂缝发育位置、产状、几何特点、运动特征与物探解译、钻孔联合剖面揭示的隆尧活动断裂一致,因此,隆尧地裂缝与隆尧活动断裂直接相连。根据上述成因理论,提出了构造地裂缝的一种成因模式——断层直剪式,即:在区域应力加强或转变的基础上,基地隐伏断裂开始蠕滑运动,断层面或断层带向地表延伸,切穿第四系岩土层,在地表形成陡坎。并据此分析了隆尧地裂缝的形成、显现和发展过程,为断层直剪式地裂缝成因研究提供理论指导。     

Large dyke intrusion and small eruption: The December 24, 2018 Mt. Etna eruption imaged by Sentinel‐1 data

On December 24th, Mt. Etna volcano underwent a seismic crisis beneath the summit and upper southern flank of the volcano, accompanied by significant ash emission. Eruptive fissures opened at the base of summit craters, propagating SE‐wards. This lateral eruption lasted until December 27th. Despite the small eruption, seismic swarm and ground deformation were very strong. Sentinel‐1 interferograms show a wide and intense ground deformation with some additional features related to volcano‐tectonic structures. We inverted DInSAR data to characterise the magma intrusion. The resulting model indicates that a large dyke intruded but aborted its upraise at about the sea level; however, this big intrusion stretched the edifice, promoting the opening of the eruptive fissures fed by a shallower small dyke, and activating also several faults. This model highlights that a big intrusion beneath a structurally complex volcano represents a main issue even if the eruption is aborted.

CO2地质储存逃逸通道可分为人为逃逸通道、地质构造逃逸通道以及跨越盖层和水力圈闭逃逸通道三类.在CO2地质储存场地选址和场地勘查阶段,应高度重视区域地壳稳定性、地震危险性和CO2逃逸通道专门性地质调查评价工作,避免因CO2逃逸造成对人群健康和生态系统产生影响,导致地下水污染和诱发地质灾害发生.同时要对可能的CO2逃逸通道进行灌注前CO2背景值监测,灌注工程运营期CO2控制监测和封场后长期监测,确保CO2地质储存的有效性、安全性和持久性.     

活动断层作用下地裂缝开裂机理研究

地裂缝的成因机理争论不断,笔者认为活动断层与全新世浅表层开裂两者之间的联动机制为主要原因之一。文章以华北平原典型地裂缝为例,通过详尽地面调查、资料分析总结,结合地球物理勘察、槽探揭露和钻探等多种技术方法,得到以下几点认识:（1）依据全新世浅表层开裂形态特征,可将华北平原地裂缝划分为全新世节理裂隙型地裂缝和全新世活动断层型地裂缝。（2）节理裂隙型地裂缝开裂的外部条件是华北平原地下水位下降,疏干的松散含水层是地表水沿节理裂缝下渗后的储存场所,是产生渗透压力的原因;而活动断层是产生该类地裂缝的内部因素,两者缺一不可;活动断层型地裂缝实质是全新世活动断层。（3）节理裂隙型地裂缝主要特征是地表局部塌陷、间断性、地表无高差等;活动断层型地裂缝主要特征是连续性强,地表断距明显;地表断距是两种类型地裂缝的最主要区别特征。本文首次以构造活动断层与全新世浅表层开裂两者之间的联动机制为研究线索,阐述了构造活动断层在地裂缝形成过程中的具体作用,厘清了地下水位下降所扮演的“角色”,为城市规划建设提供了地质依据和建议。     

河间构造地裂缝应力场二维剖面模型研究

华北平原是我国地裂缝发育较为密集的地区,河北沧州河间地裂缝具有典型构造影响特征。为分析沧州河间地裂缝发育特征、成因机制,通过求解平面应力问题的有限单元方法反演了沧州河间区域构造应力场,确定了最大主应力场和最大剪应力集中区,从而探索分析构造地裂缝的潜在危险区,建立了地裂缝二维剖面模型,计算分析河间地区区域构造应力场及区域应力集中区与地裂缝的对应关系。研究了二维状态下区域构造应力场的总体特征和规律以及活动断裂对地裂缝的成生、扩展和发育分布的控制关系。分析认为,河间地区地裂缝是由下伏基底延展变形及随之产生的断裂活动提供内动力使应力集中区域发育,具有构造型地裂缝的典型发育特征,是河间地裂缝形成及发展的主要因素。     

Some considerations concerning seismic geomorphology and paleoseismology

Seismic geomorphology studies landforms which developed in connection with earthquakes. Among them, two different end members may be distinguished: 1) seismo-tectonic landforms, including surface faults and fractures, land uplift and subsidence at different scales, surface bulges, elongate ridges, and any other permanent ground deformations directly related to tectonic stress, and 2) seismo-gravitational landforms, such as landslides, deep-seated gravitational slope deformations, sinkholes, and fissures due to sediment compaction or liquefaction and sand blows, connected with both seismic shaking and gravitational stress.A clear-cut distinction between the two categories of landforms is not always easy to make (and in many instances not really useful), while there are, in many cases, ground effects that might be (and should be) considered as simultaneous combinations of seismo-tectonic and seismo-gravitational processes. This applies especially to surface fracturing and faulting which could be the combined result of tectonic stress, stress produced by seismic shaking, and gravitational stress.The objective of this paper is to review selected case histories mainly from Italy and the Mediterranean region, in order to show the importance of a comprehensive study of earthquake-generated landforms for understanding the seismicity level of the area under investigation. We argue that in earthquake prone areas, seismic landforms often constitute typical patterns (seismic landscapes) whose recognition, mapping and paleoseismological analysis may help in the evaluation of seismic hazards.     

山东郯城麦坡中更新世地震事件记录*

山东郯城麦坡被命名为典型地震活动断层遗址,其最醒目的标志是郯庐断裂带主干断层(F₂)东盘的紫灰色下白垩统逆冲到断层西盘的红棕色第四系之上且界线截然。野外调查和试验分析表明,郯城麦坡第四系于泉组中发育液化砂涌管、液化砂脉、震裂缝充填构造和同沉积断层等地震引发的软沉积物变形构造——地震事件记录。根据软沉积物变形构造的砂质黏土光释光测年分析,推断这些软沉积物变形构造所记录的地震事件属郯庐断裂带主干断层F₂在中更新世晚期发生的强构造与地震活动。这些地震事件记录为研究郯庐断裂带新构造运动与地震活动提供了新资料,也丰富了该地震活动断层遗址的内涵。     

Late Quaternary Activity of the Huashan Piedmont Fault and Associated Hazards in the Southeastern Weihe Graben, Central China

The Weihe Graben is not only an important Cenozoic fault basin in China but also a significant active seismic zone. The Huashan piedmont fault is an important active fault on the southeast side of the Weihe Graben and has been highly active since the Cenozoic. The well–known Great Huaxian County Earthquake of 1556 occurred on the Huashan piedmont fault. This earthquake, which claimed the lives of approximately 830000 people, is one of the few large earthquakes known to have occurred on a high–angle normal fault. The Huashan piedmont fault is a typical active normal fault that can be used to study tectonic activity and the associated hazards. In this study, the types and characteristics of late Quaternary deformation along this fault are discussed from geological investigations, historical research and comprehensive analysis. On the basis of its characteristics and activity, the fault can be divided into three sections, namely eastern, central and western. The eastern and western sections display normal slip. Intense deformation has occurred along the two sections during the Quaternary; however, no deformation has occurred during the Holocene. The central section has experienced significant high–angle normal fault activity during the Quaternary, including the Holocene. Holocene alluvial fans and loess cut by the fault have been identified at the mouths of many stream valleys of the Huashan Mountains along the central section of the Huashan piedmont fault zone. Of the three sections of the Huashan piedmont fault, the central section is the most active and was very active during the late Quaternary. The rate of normal dip–slip was 1.67–2.71±0.11 mm/a in the Holocene and 0.61±0.15 mm/a during the Mid–Late Pleistocene. As is typical of normal faults, the late Quaternary activity of the Huashan piedmont fault has produced a set of disasters, which include frequent earthquakes, collapses, landslides, mudslides and ground fissures. Ground fissures mainly occur on the hanging–wall of the Huashan piedmont fault, with landslides, collapses and mudslides occurring on the footwall.     

渭河地堑盆地新构造运动及其基本特征

渭河地堑盆地新构造运动表现繁多,运动类型齐全。本文侧重从多层地形、切割地形、沉积厚度、岩相变化、地形变、活动断裂、地裂缝、黄土节理与切沟等方面,结合建造与改造,讨论该区的垂直升降运动和断裂运动两大类型,并从中总结归纳了区内的构造应力场、运动的阶段性、间歇性、继承性与新生性、运动幅度与速度、运动时期、块体运动、以及区域地壳稳定性和活动性等基本特征,提出了不少新认识,从而加深了该区的研究深度和广度。     

沂沭断裂带及其近区的地震成因岩石新认识

将沂沭断裂带及其附近地区的地震成因岩石划分为四种类型,它们是具有地震成因构造的震积岩、震断层构造岩、震火山岩及隐爆地震角砾岩.前两类是构造地震的记录,而后两类是火山地震及隐爆火山地震的记录.由于震断层构造岩沿长期活动性断层分布,大多遭受了若干期强地震活动的改造,所以不易确定其最初的形成时期.因此,笔者重点对分布于沂沭断裂地震带及附近的其它三类地震成因岩石(包括震积岩、震火山岩和隐爆地震角砾岩)作了研究,论述了三类地震成因岩石的特征、时空分布、反映的地震作用机理及意义.认为:地震成因岩石不仅是强地震事件和激烈构造活动的记录;而且,因为由强地震形成的不同等级断层和裂隙构成了一个高渗透性的能够沟通不同深度石油和成矿流体的网络,所以深入研究地震成因岩石有助于完善大断裂地震带及近区的石油聚集与成矿理论.     

Development characteristics and mechanisms of the Taigu–Qixian earth fissure group in the Taiyuan basin,China

Since the 1980s, increasing human activity and continuing over-exploitation of groundwater resources have caused the earth fissures in the rift basin in Shanxi, China, to enter an active phase. Buildings along these earth fissures have been seriously damaged. Four massive earth fissures that developed in the Taigu and Qixian areas of the eastern Taiyuan basin endanger the operational safety of the high-speed railway that passes through this region. Using field observations, measurements, and exploration, we determined that the four earth fissures are parallel to each other, have a northeast trend, and are separated by approximately equal distances. The rupture zones of these earth fissures are generally 10–50 m wide and are formed by the main fissures and secondary fissures. The width of the zone affected by the earth fissures is 20–50 m based on deformation and the damage done to buildings. These fissures formed on the Earth’s surface; their hanging walls are lower than their foot walls, forming normal faults; and the ground surface around the fissures exhibits ridges and depressions. The fissures are connected to deep hidden faults. The fault displacement increases with increasing depth, which is characteristic of syn-sedimentary faults. These earth fissures are characterized by vertical displacement, and their average annual activity rate is 1–3 cm. We believe that the formation of this large-scale fissure group may be related to the tectonic structure of the hidden faults in the basin and may also be affected by the continuous regional extensional stress of the basin. The current increased level of activity could be caused by the over-exploitation of groundwater in the area.     

同沉积断层研究综述

同沉积断层是沉积盆地最基本的地质构造形式,控制着盆地的空间展布、几何形态、沉积韵律以及油气储层的分布。结合国内外研究进展,本文从特征和分类、次生构造、研究方法、成因和演化理论等方面对同沉积断层的研究现状进行了总结和论述,认为同沉积断层的精细探测、定量评价和高精度模拟是今后研究的重点。基于一些构造地裂缝的发育特征和同沉积断层特点,提出了同沉积地裂缝的概念,并以西安地裂缝为例,阐述了同沉积地裂缝的特征,指出从同沉积作用出发研究地裂缝的发育模式、形成机制、破裂扩展效应以及影响带宽度是今后构造地裂缝研究的方向。     

渭河盆地基底伸展与地裂缝成因关系探讨

渭河盆地是我国乃至世界上地裂缝最为发育,灾害最为严重的地区。本文以渭河盆地为原型,采用有限元数值分析方法,分析了基底伸展作用下盆地浅表层岩土介质和多级破裂系统的应力和变形响应特征,从而揭示基底伸展变形与该区域地裂缝之间的成因关系。结果表明,盆地基底的伸展作用可以引起近地表岩土介质的拉张变形,当这种拉张作用与盆地断裂的上盘正断倾滑式伸展拉张叠加时,必然形成或加剧地表土层的张剪性破裂,从而为地裂缝的发育奠定了构造基础。     

Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis for Sumatra, Indonesia and across the Southern Malaysian Peninsula

The ground motion hazard for Sumatra and the Malaysian peninsula is calculated in a probabilistic framework, using procedures developed for the US National Seismic Hazard Maps. We constructed regional earthquake source models and used standard published and modified attenuation equations to calculate peak ground acceleration at 2% and 10% probability of exceedance in 50 years for rock site conditions. We developed or modified earthquake catalogs and declustered these catalogs to include only independent earthquakes. The resulting catalogs were used to define four source zones that characterize earthquakes in four tectonic environments: subduction zone interface earthquakes, subduction zone deep intraslab earthquakes, strike-slip transform earthquakes, and intraplate earthquakes. The recurrence rates and sizes of historical earthquakes on known faults and across zones were also determined from this modified catalog. In addition to the source zones, our seismic source model considers two major faults that are known historically to generate large earthquakes: the Sumatran subduction zone and the Sumatran transform fault. Several published studies were used to describe earthquakes along these faults during historical and pre-historical time, as well as to identify segmentation models of faults. Peak horizontal ground accelerations were calculated using ground motion prediction relations that were developed from seismic data obtained from the crustal interplate environment, crustal intraplate environment, along the subduction zone interface, and from deep intraslab earthquakes. Most of these relations, however, have not been developed for large distances that are needed for calculating the hazard across the Malaysian peninsula, and none were developed for earthquake ground motions generated in an interplate tectonic environment that are propagated into an intraplate tectonic environment. For the interplate and intraplate crustal earthquakes, we have applied ground-motion prediction relations that are consistent with California (interplate) and India (intraplate) strong motion data that we collected for distances beyond 200 km. For the subduction zone equations, we recognized that the published relationships at large distances were not consistent with global earthquake data that we collected and modified the relations to be compatible with the global subduction zone ground motions. In this analysis, we have used alternative source and attenuation models and weighted them to account for our uncertainty in which model is most appropriate for Sumatra or for the Malaysian peninsula. The resulting peak horizontal ground accelerations for 2% probability of exceedance in 50 years range from over 100% g to about 10% g across Sumatra and generally less than 20% g across most of the Malaysian peninsula. The ground motions at 10% probability of exceedance in 50 years are typically about 60% of the ground motions derived for a hazard level at 2% probability of exceedance in 50 years. The largest contributors to hazard are from the Sumatran faults.     

伊通河断裂及其稳定性评价

伊通河断裂的分布规律和危险性评价对长春市的发展和规划具有重要意义。在区域地质调查、区域地球物理数据处理基础上,利用地面电法、探地雷达和浅层地震探测,确定伊通河断裂呈近南北向分布,总体向西倾,倾角较大。根据探地雷达探测结果推断伊通河断裂切断白垩系地层,是一条早第四纪活动断层。分析伊通河断裂是强扭性断裂,处于伊通河断裂冲蚀谷地中。第四纪以来,特别是晚更新世以来,断裂活动趋于稳定,反生中强地震的概率很小。     

渭河盆地安仁镇地裂缝基本特征与成因分析

2016年野外地质调查发现渭河盆地东北侧安仁镇发育48条地裂缝,造成沿线房屋墙体开裂、道路错断和农田变形龟裂等,并严重威胁大西高铁安全运营。通过详细的地质调查和地质测绘发现其均位于地貌分界线两侧并发育在双泉-临猗断裂上盘,地裂缝走向为NE60°~80°,按发育位置可将其划分为5组地裂缝。选取典型地裂缝为研究对象,利用槽探和工程地质钻探揭示了地裂缝的剖面结构特征,发现地裂缝导致浅部土体破裂严重,地裂缝错断两侧地层且位错量随深度增加而增加,表现出同沉积断层的性质。在此基础上,对比西安地裂缝并详细分析了安仁镇地裂缝的成因机理,发现构造断裂、地震活动和表水潜蚀是地裂缝形成的主要因素。安仁镇地裂缝成因机理可概化为:构造控缝、地震启缝和表水扩缝。     

Quaternary faulting in the Upper Rhine Graben revealed by high-resolution multi-channel reflection seismic

A high-resolution multichannel seismic reflection river profiling campaign was completed in July 2002 in the southern Upper Rhine graben (URG), along the River Rhine. Preliminary results show apparent Quaternary vertical slip rates, on intra-graben faults that are relatively slow, of the order of a few thousandths to a few hundredths of mm/yr. Moreover, kinematical data from the Ludwigshafen area show decreasing vertical slip rates since the Middle Pleistocene and/or a migration of tectonic activity. While still preliminary, these data show inhomogeneous and relatively slow tectonic activity in the URG that could probably not alone have shaped the Quaternary graben morphology.

L'île Crémieu (Jura,France), un plateau calcaire épargné par la tectonique ?

The ‘Île Crémieu’, a plateau of Jurassic limestones located in the southern border of the Bresse and at the Jura front, is generally considered as non-deformed. Quaternary ice sheets and drainage have underlined and cleaned out some fracture planes trending NNE and NW–SE that border and crosscut the ‘Île Crémieu’. The analysis of seismic profiles reveals NNE-trending normal faults and NW–SE-trending strike-slip faults, crosscutting the basement to Late Miocene layers. Microtectonic fieldwork shows that these faults exist and were activated during the main Cainozoic tectonic events. To cite this article: M. Rocher et al., C. R. Geoscience 336 (2004).     

Quaternary tectonic faulting in the Eastern United States

Paleoseismological study of geologic features thought to result from Quaternary tectonic faulting can characterize the frequencies and sizes of large prehistoric and historical earthquakes, thereby improving the accuracy and precision of seismic-hazard assessments. Greater accuracy and precision can reduce the likelihood of both underprotection and unnecessary design and construction costs. Published studies proposed Quaternary tectonic faulting at 31 faults, folds, seismic zones, and fields of earthquake-induced liquefaction phenomena in the Appalachian Mountains and Coastal Plain. Of the 31 features, seven are of known origin. Four of the seven have nontectonic origins and the other three features are liquefaction fields caused by moderate to large historical and Holocene earthquakes in coastal South Carolina, including Charleston; the Central Virginia Seismic Zone; and the Newbury, Massachusetts, area. However, the causal faults of the three liquefaction fields remain unclear. Charleston has the highest hazard because of large Holocene earthquakes in that area, but the hazard is highly uncertain because the earthquakes are uncertainly located.Of the 31 features, the remaining 24 are of uncertain origin. They require additional work before they can be clearly attributed either to Quaternary tectonic faulting or to nontectonic causes. Of these 24, 14 features, most of them faults, have little or no published geologic evidence of Quaternary tectonic faulting that could indicate the likely occurrence of earthquakes larger than those observed historically. Three more features of the 24 were suggested to have had Quaternary tectonic faulting, but paleoseismological and other studies of them found no evidence of large prehistoric earthquakes. The final seven features of uncertain origin require further examination because all seven are in or near urban areas. They are the Moodus Seismic Zone (Hartford, Connecticut), Dobbs Ferry fault zone and Mosholu fault (New York City), Lancaster Seismic Zone and the epicenter of the shallow Cacoosing Valley earthquake (Lancaster and Reading, Pennsylvania), Kingston fault (central New Jersey between New York and Philadelphia), and Everona fault-Mountain Run fault zone (Washington, D.C., and Arlington and Alexandria, Virginia).
