祁连山中东段地区中小地震震源机制和区域应力场

利用哥伦比亚大学 GCMT 目录给出的祁连山中东段地区中强地震震源机制资料,研究较大区域（34°-41°N,100°-106°E）的应力场;利用该地区布设的中法微震数字监测台网多年监测资料和甘肃数字监测台网资料,使用 P 波和 S 波初动及振幅比联合反演方法,反演中小地震震源机制解和发震应力场。结果表明,地区构造应力大致为北东40°-45°水平向压应力;景泰地区主压应力方向约北东45°,绝大多数地震为走滑型。天祝-古浪地区有相当部分的逆断层地震分布,主压应力方向约60°,P 轴仰角在10°左右优势分布,大致为水平应力场。这与大区域构造应力场和断层实际分布基本一致。     

山西地区的地壳应力场

根据近20年山西地区的震源机制结果,得出了山西地壳应力场存在着有别于华北应力场的局部小区域应力场,这种小区域应力场在中部断陷盆地都是以北西—北北西向的水平拉张作用为主,而在东、西两侧隆起区则是以水平挤压作用为主的结论.但如果把上述断层面解中的所有P轴、T轴再分别投影到吴尔夫网上,得到是一个一致性很好的断层面解,由此推断山西地区的平均应力场的主要特征与华北应力场的基本特征完全相同,而山西局部小区域应力场的特征随之消失.     

用滑动方向拟合法反演唐山余震区的平均应力场

将每个震源机制解的两个节面交替取作尝试的断层面,使计算的断层面上的剪切力方向与观测的断层面的滑动方向夹角最小,从而根据29个震源机制解结果反演了唐山余震区三个分区的平均主应力方向和中等主应力相对大小。本文结果说明,唐山余震区的最大主应力轴水平,取近东西方向,较之1976年唐山大震前的方向可能水平地顺时针转动了大约30。对同样地区用平均P,B,T轴推断主应力方向的结果与用上述方法所得结果基本一致。所作的数值试验说明,在特定情况下,用平均P,B,T轴推断构造应力主轴方向时有可能出现系统偏差。      

台湾及东部海域强震活动性研究及其对大陆强震的预测意义

研究了 1900年以来台湾及东部海域强震 (M≥ 7)时空分布特征,收集和测定了 1933年以来强震震源机制解。 结果表明,台湾及东部海域存在 3个强震活动带及 4个活跃时段。 29个强震震源机制解较好地反映了 3个地震活动带的区域应力场特征和力源。 研究认为,台湾及东部海域自 1986年开始的第四活跃时段与大陆地区强震活动的第五活跃期有同期活动特点。 据推测,我国大陆和台湾的强震活动可能还要持续一段时间。     

Seismic swarms, fault plane solutions, and stress tensors for S?o Miguel Island central region (Azores)

The central region of S?o Miguel Island is one of the most seismically active areas of the Azores archipelago. A revised analysis of the seismicity distribution at this region has, for the first time, shown that the seismicity is clustered in two distinct areas: the area around Fogo Volcano (Fogo) and the area around Congro maar (Congro), with each area having a highly localized swarm activity. From a total of about 15,000 events in the period from 2002 to 2010, 78 best located events were selected to make fault plane solutions using P-wave polarities and amplitude ratios. This set of fault plane solutions, and another six subsets derived from it, were inverted for the best fitting stress tensor. The stress tensor using all the 78 fault plane solutions is characterized by a subhorizontal ??1 striking WNW-ESE and a ??3 striking NNE-SSW, consistent with the regional stress field for this region. A similar result, using only the fault plane solutions located in the Fogo area, was obtained. On the other hand, for the Congro area, a local stress field seems to be superimposed on the regional field: subhorizontal ??3, striking NNE-SSW, and a near-vertical ??1. The same stress regime persists in the first 5?km depth, probably related to the upwelling of thermal fluids. The rising fluids generate horizontal extension at shallow depths, which favour the opening of cracks and the circulation and ascension of hydrothermal fluids. The stress regime deeper than 5?km is more uncertain; however, it is indicative of a compressional regime. Thus, it can be conclude that the smaller Fogo area appears to be dominated by the normal regional stress field while the high active Congro area seems to have a different, highly heterogeneous stress field dominated by local conditions.     

Analysis on small-earthquake composite fault plane solutions from 1961 to 1999 in Xinfengjiang reservoir area

澄江5.2级地震的震源机制、震源应力场和震源断层

利用地震波资料对澄江5．2级地震序列的震源机制、震源应力场和震源断层作了分析研究。结果表明，整个序列发展中，震源区及附近、构造应力场以南东东方向、水平作用为主的压应力场为主。其次还有南南东向、水平作用为主的压应力场的作用。由序列震源机制解分析，主震发震断层是走向北北东、倾角较陡的断层面，在南南东－南东向，接近水平的压应力场作用下，该断层面具有以左旋走滑为主的错动性质。该断层面是序列的主破裂面。在序列发展过程中，北西西－北西向断层也参与了活动。有的余震，虽然发生在与主破裂面一致或接近的断层面上，但破裂错动的旋性发生了变化，出现了相对主破裂事件的反向错动。极少数余震破裂错动性质呈现以倾向滑动为主的特征。在序列发展过程中，破裂面及其错动性质显地复杂。由于强震的发生，主破裂的错动，使得震源区局部应力场状态错综复杂。     

南海、中印半岛及其邻近地区的地震活动及应力状态

研究了南海、中印半岛及邻区的地震分布,地震主要集中在板块的边界。此外,一些浅震主要集中在缅甸西部和中缅边界。研究了Benioff带的形态。在爪哇海沟、菲律宾海沟,两板块耦合得不好;在缅甸山弧、安达曼-尼科巴岛弧下,俯冲的印度板块向NNE运动。由震源机制解及断层运动推断,主压应力方向在缅泰西部为NNE,在南海为NNW或S-N,与板块相互作用密切相关。      

仙游地震序列中小地震震源机制解特征

利用福建地震台网记录的数字地震波形,采用基于P波初动和S/P振幅比(HASH)方法,反演了2010年8月至2014年12月间发生在福建仙游地区ML2.0级以上地震的震源机制解。结果表明,仙游地震序列中小地震震源机制解一致性较好,其节面走向、倾角及滑动角以及P、T轴优势分布十分明显。节面走向优势方向为北西向,与该区域沙县—南日岛断裂走向一致,震源破裂类型为近直立右旋走滑型。序列的发生主要受控于近南北向主压应力,与福建地区背景应力场方向存在一定差异。分析认为,仙游地震序列的发生主要受控于仙游地区小尺度区域的构造应力场,金钟水库水位变化与序列显著地震活动存在一定相关性,但对仙游地区构造应力场影响不明显。     

2003年伽师6.8级地震序列特征和震源机制的初步研究

在位于1997-1998年新疆伽师9次6级地震分布区域的东南端，2003年2月24日又发生6．8级地震。结合伽师6．8级地震序列震源机制解结果，对该地震序列的基本特征和震源区应力降等进行了对比分析。结果表明，6．8级地震断层是在北西向的区域应力场挤压作用下产生的倾滑逆断层，震源以单侧破裂为主，破裂方向与极震区走向，以及北西向的主压应力方向一致。震前震源区应力显著增强，震后应力释放较为彻底。中强余震震源机制解与主震有明显差异，表现出震源区应力场处于不稳定的调整阶段，余震震源机制的差异为震后地震趋势的判定提供了依据。     

1950年西藏察隅M8.6强震序列震源参数复核

1950年8月15日西藏察隅发生M8.6巨大地震.我们利用收集到的全球239个台站的P波资料,利用我国国家测震台网的常规定位方法和模型,对察隅M8.6强震序列进行了重新定位,并在此基础上重新计算了震源机制解.重定位后的结果表明,察隅M8.6强震序列显示出不同时段的震中分区分布特征:第1阶段是前震,1950年2月23日在墨脱北部雅鲁藏布江大拐弯的顶部发生;第2阶段是1950年8月15日─1950年8月18日,发生主震和之后3天内的余震,都分布在察隅附近,并且这些震中呈北西条带分布;第3阶段的余震是1950年8月22日─1950年9月13日,它们扩展到南部的印度和缅甸地区;第4阶段的余震是1950年9月30日─1951年4月15日,发生在西部的墨脱、错那等地.这四个分区的关联特点为顺时针旋移.重新计算后的震源机制解显示出:主震的NWW走向的节面与主震后2区内余震震中的NWW分布方向一致;序列中所有的压应力轴P和张应力轴T,都接近于水平向,其倾伏角大都小于20°;察隅主震和2区内余震的压应力轴P为近南北向,张应力轴T为近东西向;但3区和4区余震的P轴为近东西向,T轴为近南北向.反映出该强震序列中余震震源机制解的差异比较大.     

A combined methodology of multiplet and composite focal mechanism techniques for identifying seismologically active zones in Syria

This contribution is an attempt to enlarge the current knowledge about the focal mechanisms as well as the seismotectonic settings in Syria. The seismologically active zones have been identified by applying an appropriate methodology to the events recorded during the period 1995–2003 by the Syrian National Seismological Network (SNSN). The recorded events in Syria were classified as weak during the research period. It was extremely important to propose and apply an appropriate methodology to identify the focal mechanisms generating this seismic activity. The proposed methodology consists of applying a combination of two techniques: the multiplet and the composite focal mechanisms. The combination of many events in one composite focal mechanism was realized by a multiplet technique using the spectral coherence of the events as a measure of similarity. The application of the proposed methodology allows a data set of composite fault plane solutions to be obtained. Most of the composite fault plane solutions had strike-slip mechanisms which are in agreement with the configuration of seismogenic belts in Syria.     

ANALYSIS OF THE CONFIDENCE INTERVAL OF THE COMPOSITE FAULT PLANE SOLUTION OBTAINED FROM THE GRID SEARCH METHOD: AN EXAMPLE OF SOUTHERN JIANGXI PROVINCE

In order to quantitatively analyze the reliability of the composite fault plane solution of small earthquakes, the Bootstrap sampling technique is introduced into the grid search method, and the ideas and methods for calculating the confidence interval from the grid search method are proposed initially. There are two sample sets that can represent the characteristics of the composite fault plane solution. One sample set is the optional solutions obtained by the grid search method and the other is obtained by the Bootstrap sampling technique. Then, we calculate the confidence intervals of the two sample sets (P, B and T axis). The research results of tectonic stress field in southern Jiangxi Province are relatively few. In view of such situation, we use the focal mechanism solutions of small earthquakes to calculate and analyze the composite fault plane solution and the confidence interval. This study shows that the confidence interval of the principal stress axis can be obtained well by both of the sample methods. The reliability of the results and the confidence range of the principal stress axis can be better represented by the confidence intervals. The middle principal stress in southern Jiangxi Province is nearly vertical, and the maximum and minimum principal stresses are nearly horizontal. The direction of maximum principal stress is NWW-SEE and that of the minimum principal stress is NNE-SSW. And, the area is in a strike-slip stress regime. The results are consistent with previous studies, and the stress directions obtained by previous researchers are within the confidence interval calculated by this paper.

Determinations of directions of the mean stress field in Sichuan-Yunnan region from a number of focal mechanism solutions

Introduction With the model of double couple point source, both orientations of the T, B, and P axes of a single focal mechanism solution and parameters of the two nodal planes may be determined.

Seismicity and stress state in the South China Sea, Indochina and their vicinity

The distribution of earthquakes from 1973 to 1982 in the South China Sea, Indochina and their vicinity was studied using the data from I. S. C. It was found that the earthquakes are mainly concentrated along the boundaries of plates. Beside, some of shallow eartqhuakes are distributed in west part of Burma and the boundary between Burma and China, a few of earthquakes occurred in South China Sea. The features of Benioff zone along the boundaries between India plate, Philippine Sea plate and Eurasia plate were studied. The plate do not coupled well under the Java trench and the Philippine trench. The subducted India plate under Burmese range, Andaman—Nicobar arc moves NNE. The fault plane solutions of earthquakes were studied using the first motions of P wave. The stress state on subduction zones and within the area were deduced from the fault plane solutions and the fault movement. It was found that the direction of principal compression axis of stress is in the NNE in west part of Burma, in S—N in south and middle part of Bruma and Thailand, and in NNE or S—N in the South China Sea. It was also found that the stress state has close relation with the interaction of plates. The Chinese version of this paper appeared in the Chinese edition ofActa Seismologica Sinica,13, 129–137, 1991.
