Evidence for Continent-Continent Collision Zone in the South Indian Shield Region

With a view towards understanding the evolutionary history of the complex South Indian shield, several geological and geophysical studies have been carried out. Recent geophysical studies include magnetotelluric (MT), deep seismic sounding (DSS), gravity, magnetic and deep resistivity soundings (DRS). In the present study, MT results along 140 km Andiyur-Turaiyur east-west profile is presented. The data are subjected to Groom-Bailey decomposition and static shift correction before deriving a 2-D model. The 2-D modeling results have shown that the upper crust (up to about 15 km) towards western part of the profile have exhibited high resistive character of about 40, 000 ohm-m as compared to the eastern part (less than 5, 000 ohm-m). The mid-lower crust has shown a decrease in resistivity in western part of the profile, the order of resistivity being 2, 000 ohm-m. An anomalous steep conductive feature (less than 100 ohm-m) is observed near Sankari at mid-lower crustal depths (>20 km) towards middle part of the profile. This feature is spatially correlatable with the well-known Moyar-Bhavani Shear Zone (MBSZ). The features obtained in the present study are consistent with earlier MT studies in this region and correlatable with other geophysical studies. DSS studies near the study region gave an evidence for differing crustal structure on either side of MBSZ. Variation in geoelectric character along the profile both in the upper crust and mid-lower crust indicate a block structure in the SGT with shear zones acting as boundaries. The new evidence in the form of distinct geoelectric structure and also variation in seismic structure indicate a continent-continent collision zone in this region and plays an important role for the Gondwana reconstruction models of South Indian shield.

An overview of the crustal structure of the Tibetan plateau after 35 years of deep seismic soundings

Since the pioneer wide-angle seismic profile along the Yadong–Gulu rift acquired in 1974 by the ex-Institute of Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), several research programs aimed to deep geophysics, performed thanks to the participation of Chinese national and international institutions, have been developed during last 35 years, including 23 wide-angle seismic profiles with total length of about 6000 km. These profiles are unevenly distributed, most of them in eastern Tibet and few profiles in western Tibet. In this paper, we make a summarized presentation of all these wide-angle seismic profiles and provide an overall view of the seismic velocity structure of the crust beneath the broad Tibetan plateau, which is the product of the continuous convergence and collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates since about 50 Ma ago. Different patterns of crustal thickness variation related to the tectonic blocks and along suture zones of the region are displayed. The crust thickness is confirmed to be about 70–75 km under southern Tibet, and 60–65 km under northern, northeastern and southeastern Tibet. The leading edge of the subducted lithosphere reaches the northern margin of the plateau and directly contacts with Tarim Basin. Westward of the 90°E boundary, the Indian crust is moving towards the northern edge of the plateau and collides with Tarim Basin at 80°E while reach the Bangong–Nujiang suture belt at 88°E; eastward of the 90°E boundary, the northern edge of the crust should be at 50–100 km south of Bangong–Nujiang suture. The results supply helpful constrains to understand the mechanism of the continent–continent collision and its consequences in the plateau and neighbouring areas.

青藏高原现今构造变形特征与GPS速度场

文章以青藏高原的GPS观测数据为基础 ,结合活动地质构造资料 ,研究了青藏高原的现今构造变形状态和机制 ,并探讨青藏高原现今构造变形所反映的大陆内部动力学过程。GPS观测的速度矢量揭示了青藏高原整体向北和向东运动的趋势 ,平行于印度和欧亚板块碰撞方向上的地壳缩短量约是 38mm/a ,而青藏高原周边主要断裂带的滑动速率均在 10mm/a以下。大约 90 %的印度与欧亚板块相对运动量被青藏高原的地壳缩短所吸收和调节。GPS速度矢量由南向北逐渐向东偏转 ,向东的分量也增加 ,形成了以羌塘地块北部 (或玛尼—玉树—鲜水河断裂 )和祁连山中部为中心的两个地壳物质向东流动带。青藏高原的向东挤出实际上是地壳物质在印度板块推挤下和周边刚性地块阻挡下围绕东构造结发生的顺时针旋转。
