华北克拉通岩石圈三维密度结构

显生宙以来华北克拉通岩石圈遭到破坏,这一现象的科学问题已受到世界地学家广泛关注.本文首先将地震层析成像反演得到的P波速度扰动转化为密度扰动,以此作为初始密度模型,然后利用布格重力异常反演得到了华北克拉通岩石圈高分辨三维密度结构.为了避开大型稀疏矩阵求逆计算,提高计算效率,我们将代数重构技术用于密度反演解算.反演结果表明:华北克拉通岩石圈密度在横向和纵向上均存在明显的不均匀性,密度分布形态与地表构造格局有很好的相关性;研究区地壳整体表现为低密度异常,地壳以下岩石圈部分则以高密度异常为主;鄂尔多斯块体地壳范围内以低密度异常为主,80~120 km深度上为呈南北两端集中分布的高密度异常,并分别与秦岭造山带和阴山造山带的高密度异常分布相连,这暗示了鄂尔多斯块体可能受到了来自其南北两端造山带深部动力学过程的影响;80~120 km深度上,华北克拉通东部地区呈现出显著的南北向非均匀的高密度异常,这表明遭到破坏后该地区上地幔物质分布具有强烈的南北向非均匀性.     

郯庐断裂带中南段的岩石圈精细结构

郯庐断裂带是中国东部规模最大的构造活动带,有着复杂的形成演化历史,对中国东部的区域构造、岩浆活动、矿产资源的形成和分布以及现代地震活动都有重要控制作用.2010年在郯庐断裂带中南段的江苏宿迁市附近,采用深地震反射探测方法对郯庐断裂带及其两侧地块的岩石圈结构进行了解剖.结果表明,该区莫霍面和岩石圈底界均向西倾,其中,地壳厚度约为31~36 km,岩石圈厚度约为75~86 km,且岩石圈厚度在郯庐断裂带下方出现突变.郯庐断裂带在剖面上表现为由多条主干断裂组成的花状构造,其内部发育有断陷盆地和挤压褶皱,具有伸展、挤压和走滑并存的构造形迹,暗示郯庐断裂带的形成和演化经历了多期复杂的构造活动.这一断裂带错断了近地表沉积层,向下切割莫霍面和岩石圈地幔,属岩石圈尺度的深大断裂构造系统.软流圈高温高压热物质沿断裂带的上涌、岩浆底侵或热侵蚀作用造成岩石圈出现拉张伸展和岩石圈减薄,并可能使岩石圈组构及其物质成分发生改变.本项研究结果不但可进一步加深对郯庐断裂带深、浅部结构的认识,而且还可为分析研究华北克拉通东部的深部过程和浅部构造响应提供资料约束.     

青藏高原东北缘岩石圈三维密度结构

综合重力观测资料和地震波走时资料反演了青藏高原东北缘岩石圈三维密度结构,并对该区岩石圈结构及动力学特征进行了讨论.首先利用收集到的P波近震和远震走时数据进行地震层析成像,得到研究区岩石圈三维P波速度结构.然后利用速度-密度经验关系式,将速度扰动转化为密度扰动建立研究区三维初始密度模型.最后利用分离的布格重力异常反演得到了岩石圈三维密度结构.反演结果表明:青藏高原东北缘地壳密度结构特征有利于地震孕育发生和地壳物质侧向流动;地壳内,密度异常等值线走向与地表断裂走向基本一致,进入地幔后,密度异常等值线走向发生了顺时针旋转,这表明青藏高原东北缘地壳和地幔具有不同的构造运动模式,暗示该区可能发生了壳幔解耦;80~100 km深度上,P波速度异常较密度异常明显偏低,推测该区可能发生了部分熔融或者岩石含水量的增加;印度板块俯冲和周围坚硬块体阻挡联合作用,使得青藏高原东北缘形成了强大的区域构造应力场,并导致深部软流圈热物质上涌,为该区壳幔解耦、部分熔融和P波速度降低创造了条件.     

Thermal-rheological structure of the lithosphere beneath Jiyang Depression: Its implications for geodynamics

Thermal regime of the lithosphere is the scenario of the lithospheric thermal evolution, and the thermo-mechanical state of lithosphere definitively controls its deformation style and mechanism. Better understanding of the lithospheric deep thermal-rheo- logical structure of sedimentary basin will shed light on the formation and evolution dynamic process of the basin. Surface tectonics is the response of the deep structure, and is controlled by the lithospheric ther-mal-rheological properties.…

依据地震波速得到的上地幔温度和气象台站记录的地表温度为约束,结合地表热流和热导率观测数据,利用有限元方法计算了中国大陆及邻区岩石圈三维热结构.基于此温度结果和GPS观测得到的应变率数据,以滑动摩擦、脆性破裂和蠕变三种强度机制为约束,计算得到了中国大陆及邻区岩石圈三维流变结构.结果显示:弱强度和低等效黏滞性系数的下地壳在中国大陆及邻区普遍存在,并且下地壳的流变强度和等效黏滞性系数比上地壳和岩石圈地幔一般要低1~2个数量级;中国大陆范围内青藏高原存在着厚度最大、强度最低的下地壳;青藏高原的岩石圈强度和等效黏滞性系数比华北、华南和印度板块的都要低;岩石圈流变结构的横向分布特征与重力梯度带和地形过渡带比较一致.

Thermal-rheological structure of the lithosphere beneath two types of basins in eastern and western China

After calculating thermal-rheological properties of the lithosphere in the Northern Jiangsu basin, the Bohaiwan basin as well as the Jiyang depression in the east and Tarim basin in the west of China, this paper analyzes the relationship between thermal-rheological structures and tectonic evolution of the two types of basins. The results show that the thermal-rheological structures of the lithosphere directly reflect the dynamic processes. Under different dynamic environments, the style of basin formation and the differences in basin evolution are closely related to the dynamic properties of the lithosphere indicated by thermal-rheological structures.     

木里—盐源地区深部电性结构及构造意义

木里—盐源地区地处青藏高原东南缘,属于古特提斯洋构造域,是松潘—甘孜地块及扬子地块的交接地带,是研究青藏高原东南缘构造演化过程的重要区域.本文介绍的是横穿木里—盐源地区的大地电磁剖面,自北西向南东依次跨越锦屏山断裂、木里弧形构造区、丽江—小金河断裂、盐源盆地、金河—箐河断裂等构造.维性分析表明木里弧形构造区和金河—箐河断裂都表现为较强的三维性,因此本文采用大地电磁三维反演技术,获得了木里—盐源地区的精细电性结构.电性模型显示,沿剖面可以划分为4个主要的电性构造单元.锦屏山断裂以北的川西北次级地块下方10~20 km处,发育北西向低阻体,推断是古老的义敦岛弧区残留的物质;锦屏山断裂以南至丽江—小金河断裂为高阻体,可能是锦屏山山根;丽江—小金河断裂下方~10 km处发育北东向的低阻体,与龙门山—锦屏山构造带走向一致,结合剖面附近表现为张性的震源机制解特点,推测该低阻体很可能是北部的塑性物质受阻后一部分往西南沿着丽江—小金河断裂缝隙挤入的结果;盐源盆地下方在3~7 km发育厚度约5 km、长度达40 km的低阻层,电性主轴方向为北西向,与盐源断裂走向一致,解释为盐岩层,尤其是南段低阻体表现为延伸至地表的特征,与地表盐泉对应,为在盐源地区开展深部找钾盐矿提供了电磁方面的证据.

     

The existence of a thin low-viscosity layer beneath the lithosphere

The horizontal temperature gradient at the base of the lithosphere at an oceanic fracture zone, where plate of different ages is juxtaposed, is expected to drive a local circulation, the characteristics of which can be constrained by the amplitude, wavelength and age-dependence of the geoid. Two-dimensional numerical models of convection in a fluid layer overlain by a solid conducting lid have been used to generate theoretical geoid profiles at right angles to the fracture zone. Only a thin, low-viscosity layer provides a reasonable fit to the data. The best model so far obtained has a fluid layer 150 km thick with viscosity 1.5 × 10¹⁹ Pa s under a 75 km lid. Such a layer, which is incapable of transmitting strong horizontal shear stresses, could provide the decoupling mechanism between plate and deep mantle flow required to balance the forces on the plates.     

Two-dimensional mantle flow beneath a rigid accreting lithosphere

This study considers two-dimensional mantle flow beneath a rigid lithosphere. The lithosphere which forms the upper boundary of a convecting region moves with a prescribed uniform horizontal velocity, and thickens with distance from the accreting plate boundary as it cools. Beneath the lithosphere, the mantle deforms viscously by diffusion creep and is heated radiogenically from within. Solutions for thermal convection beneath the lithosphere are obtained by finite-difference methods. Two important conclusions have resulted from this study: (1) convective patterns of large aspect ratio are stable beneath a rigid moving lithosphere; (2) even for a lithosphere velocity as small as 3 cm/yr. and a Rayleigh number as large as 10⁶, mantle circulation with large aspect ratio is driven dominantly by the motion of the lithosphere rather than by temperature gradients within the flow. Gravity, topography and heat flow are determined and implications for convection in the upper mantle are discussed.     

西构造结—帕米尔及周边深部结构与构造探榷

帕米尔高原是五大山脉汇结之中心,被称为"西构造结".在此山高耸谷陡深是人迹罕至的无人区.应用稀少的地面重力和人工地震数据和卫星重力资料,以NNW和NEE向两条长达1620 km的十字交叉剖面,对帕米尔高原地区地壳深部结构与区域地质构造进行了研讨.帕米尔高原中心地区地壳厚度(莫霍界面深度)接近70 km,并在总体上呈向四周逐渐延展减薄(变浅)的总趋势,到帕米尔的周边地区减薄为50余km左右.这里是一个壳幔结构变异的构造强烈活动地域.     

青藏高原岩石圈三维电性结构

本文报道通过综合大地电磁调查数据研究青藏高原岩石圈三维电阻率模型的初步成果.大地电磁法调查区域已经覆盖了高原大部分面积,为全区三维电阻率成像研究打下了可靠的基础.对多个测区大地电磁数据进行精细的同化处理和反演成像,取得了青藏高原可靠的岩石圈三维电阻率结构图像.成像的区域为28°N—35°N,80°E—104°E.三维反演计算时采用的网格尺寸为20 km×20 km,垂直方向不等间距剖分为26层.结果表明,青藏高原现今岩石圈电阻率扰动主要反映印度克拉通对亚欧大陆板块俯冲引起的热流体运动和大陆碰撞和拆离产生的构造.在岩石圈地幔,察隅地块、喜马拉雅地块和拉萨地块东部联成统一的高电阻率地块,它们反映了向北东俯冲的印度克拉通.雅鲁藏布江、班公—怒江和金沙江缝合带都有明显的低电阻率异常,表明岩石圈深处有热流体活动.雅鲁藏布江、班公—怒江和金沙江缝合带都有明显的低电阻率异常,也表明它们的岩石圈还有流体活动.青藏高原东部的低阻区沿100°E向地幔下方扩大,反映了金沙江断裂带有切穿岩石圈的趋势.地幔电阻率平面扰动的模式显示,青藏高原东西部的地体碰撞拼合形式和方向是不同的.在青藏高原西部,羌塘、拉萨和喜马拉雅等地体从北到南碰撞拼合.在青藏高原东部,羌塘—拉萨、察隅、印支、雅安和扬子等地体多方向拆离拼合,在地壳造成不正交的拆离带和压扭构造系.从高阻-低阻区的分布看,东部的地体拼合有地幔的根源,今后还会进一步发展.察隅地块岩石圈对青藏高原东部的楔入,使其北部和东部地块的岩石圈发生拆离撕裂,也造成热流体上涌的低电阻率异常.

     

Thermal-rheological structure of lithosphere beneath the northern flank of Tarim Basin, western China: Implications for geodynamics

Based on the data of geo-temperature and thermophysical parameters of rocks in the Kuqa Depression and the Tabei Uplift, northern flank of the Tarim Basin, in terms of the analytical solution of 1-D heat transfer equation, the thermal structure of the lithosphere under this region is determined. Our results show that the average surface heat flow of the northern flank of the Tarim Basin is 45 mW/m2, and the mantle heat flow is between 20 and 23 mW/m2; the temperature at crust-mantle boundary (Moho) ranges from 514℃ to 603℃ and the thermal lithosphere where the heat conduction dominates is 138-182 km thick. Furthermore, in combination with the P wave velocity structure resulting from the deep seismic sounding profile across this region and rheological modeling, we have studied the local composition of the lithosphere and its rheological profile, as well as the strength distribution. We find that the rheological stratification of the lithosphere in this region is apparent. The lowermost of the lower crust is ductile; however,the uppermost of the mantle and the upper and middle parts of the crust are both brittle layers,which is typically the so-called sandwich-like structure. Lithospheric strength is also characterized by the lateral variation, and the uplift region is stronger than the depression region. The lithospheric strength of the northem flank of the Tarim Basin decreases gradually from south to north; the Kuqa Depression has the lowest strength and the south of the Tabei Uplift is strongest.The total lithospheric strength of this region is 4.77× 1012-5.03 × 1013 N/m under extension, and 6.5 × 1012-9.4× 1013 N/m under compression. The lithospheric brittle-ductile transition depth is between 20 km and 33 km. In conclusion, the lithosphere of the northern flank of the Tarim Basin is relatively cold with higher strength, so it behaves rigidly and deforms as a whole, which is also supported by the seismic activity in this region. This rigidity of the Tarim lithosphere makes it little deform interior, but only into flexure under the sedimentation and tectonic loading associated with the rapid uplift of the Tianshan at its northern margin during the Indian-Eurasian continental collision following the Late Eocene. Finally, the influences of factors, such as heat flow, temperature,crustal thickness, and especially basin sediment thickness, on the lithospheric strength are discussed here.     

Age-dependent subduction of oceanic lithosphere beneath western South America

A recently established relation between the penetration depth of oceanic lithosphere and the lithospheric age appears to be of special interest to the understanding of the South American subduction zone. The main characteristics of this complicated zone, such as the absence of deep-focus earthquakes south of 30°S, the variations in the dip angle of the descending Nazca plate and the gap in seismic activity between depths of approximately 300 and 525 km, can be understood if the spatial and temporal variations in the age of the descending oceanic lithosphere are taken into account. In view of the significance of local aspects of the subduction process the South American-Nazca plate interaction cannot simply be considered as a type-example of the interaction between a continental and an oceanic plate.

利用文登—阿拉善左旗长观测距地震宽角反射/折射剖面东段资料,辩识出4组地壳震相和3组地幔盖层震相.采用二维射线追踪走时反演和正演拟合交替计算方法,得到了包括鲁东隆起和华北裂陷盆地在内的地壳和地幔盖层二维速度结构.研究结果表明:华北裂陷盆地基底深达6km以上,研究区壳内界面C1埋深约15km,C2界面深约25km,Moho面平均埋深约35km.上地壳速度6.0~6.1km·s-1,且横向变化较大;中地壳速度相对均匀约为6.2~6.4km·s-1;下地壳速度为6.5~7.0km·s-1,速度梯度较大.地壳平均速度与隆起和坳陷构造相关.研究区岩石圈底界面一般为75~80km,西端接近太行隆起构造时深至90km左右,向西呈明显加深趋势,地壳厚度呈现相同的增厚特征.地幔盖层上部速度8.0~8.2km·s-1,具明显正梯度特征.岩石圈平均速度在郯庐断裂带附近显著偏低.PmP和PLP震相存在不同程度的复杂性,意味着在本地区Moho界面和岩石圈界面有较为复杂的结构,可能具有一定厚度或过渡带性质.结合其他研究结果认为,地幔盖层和下地壳速度梯度、界面性质差异与华北克拉通破坏相关,意味着破坏是一个渐变、缓慢和不均匀的过程.郯庐断裂带附近的低速应是其为软弱带的证据.     

鄂尔多斯盆地西缘构造带北段深部电性结构

在横跨鄂尔多斯盆地西缘构造带北段的查甘池—银川—五湖洞约200 km长的东西向剖面上,进行了67个测点的大地电磁探测.使用“远参考道”和Robust技术处理数据.分析了各测点视电阻率、阻抗相位、二维偏离度、电性主轴方位角、磁实感应矢量等参数,采用NLCG二维反演方法对TE和TM两种模式的数据进行了二维反演.得到的二维电性结构表明,沿剖面查汗断裂带、贺兰山东缘断裂带和黄河断裂带是明显较大型电性边界,为超壳断裂带,而三关口断裂带深部延深不大.沿剖面阿拉善地块、贺兰山褶皱带、银川断陷盆地和鄂尔多斯地块具有明显不同的深部电性结构特征.阿拉善地块内部除浅表电阻率较低外,以下到深度约50 km都表现为高电阻特性.贺兰山褶皱带电性结构复杂,电阻率高低相间.银川盆地具有上宽下窄最深达约8 km低阻层,具有断陷盆地特征.鄂尔多斯地块具有低-高-低的深部电性结构特征,成层性较明显.

本文对位于青藏高原东缘川滇构造区的贡山一绥江大地电磁测深(MT)剖面数据进行反演,获得沿剖面的深部电性结构,为研究喜马拉雅东构造结、川滇菱形地块与华南地块的构造变形特征、壳幔耦合关系、地块间接触关系以及相互作用等问题,提供电性结构的依据.研究发现:(1)电性结构揭示澜沧江断裂带和小金河断裂带为深大断裂带,控制着研究区的深部结构特征和形变机制;(2)澜沧江断裂带和金沙江断裂带之间的高阻体,可能是扬子古地块的残留部分;小金河断裂带和安宁河断裂带之间的高阻体,则是峨眉山大火山省喷发形成的冕宁一越西杂岩带;(3)在滇西地块、川滇地块和大凉山地块均存在低阻层,它们的介质属性有所不同,滇西地块下的低阻层"疑似"高热状态的岩浆囊,主要由缅甸弧向东俯冲运动引起的,中上地壳的高热状态使地块的活动性增强;川滇地块内部的壳内低阻层的成因为:理塘断裂带和小金河断裂带之间的地表低阻层由破碎带充水所致,而金沙江断裂带和理塘断裂带之间的中地壳低阻层可能是由局部熔融物质或含盐流体导致的,其为壳内物质运移的通道.从而在地下物质发生大规模走滑运动的过程中起到引导作用;川滇地块东部和大凉山地块西部的壳内低阻层可能与地慢物质的上涌有关;马边断裂带附近的低阻体可能与破碎带变宽和破碎带内的流体有关.     

南岭-武夷交汇区的深部背景及地壳泊松比

为研究南岭-武夷交汇区深部动力学过程提供深部背景资料和科学依据,本文利用远震P波接收函数H-κ叠加和共转换点（CCP）叠加两种方法获取了研究区66个宽频带流动台站及24个固定台站下方的地壳厚度、泊松比和Moho面起伏形态,揭示了扬子地块与华夏地块地壳结构及泊松比变化特征,给出了南岭和武夷之间一条莫霍凸起带的高分辨图像.

结果显示：（1）研究区内地壳厚度平均值为31.2 km,泊松比平均值为0.23,总体呈现薄地壳、低泊松比的特点.地壳厚度从西北往东南由厚变薄,与区域地壳伸展特征相一致.（2）在韶关-赣州-吉安-南昌一线存在条带状薄地壳结构,平均值为28 km,呈南西-北东向展布,对应的泊松比值略微升高.推测地壳减薄带的形成可能与来自南海方向的地幔热流上涌有关.（3）江南造山带的泊松比整体偏低,存在两处平均值小于0.21的区域.华夏地块内地壳厚度与泊松比之间存在弱的负相关,表示随着地壳厚度的增大,铁镁质的下地壳厚度在整个地壳厚度中所占的比例减小.

     

“松科二井”邻域岩石圈精细结构特征及动力学环境——深地震反射剖面的揭示

为揭示"松科二井"邻域岩石圈精细结构特征,布设了一条过井近南北向的深地震反射剖面,采用多尺度药量结合的激发技术,长排列、重点段加密接收高次覆盖的采集方式,通过高保真、高保幅的处理流程获得高分辨率、高信噪比的叠前时间偏移剖面.结果显示：T4反射轴之下沉积岩层状反射与火成岩杂乱反射相间,有两处疑似上古生界地层,分别位于松科二井下方（双程走时,Two way travel time,TWT,3.5~4 s）和任民-永安断隆下方（CDP,3500~4500,TWT,3~4 s）;中下地壳可观察到近平行的北倾反射,中和断陷下方存在上下关联的透镜状强反射,整体轮廓呈蘑菇云状,解释其为岩石圈伸展构造中发育的深部热流底辟体;北部莫霍面呈近水平连续强反射,南部徐家围子断陷区域莫霍面反射较弱,同时剖面上存在3种明显的岩石圈上地幔反射,包括倾斜地幔反射、近水平地幔反射和超深地幔反射,推断其分别为早期俯冲遗迹、早期增厚地壳底界面以及现今岩石圈底界面.本文利用过松科二井地震剖面的最新成果,揭示出古亚洲洋、蒙古-鄂霍茨克洋和古太平洋三大构造域先后作用下,保留在松嫩地块岩石圈内的结构特征,为探讨松辽盆地形成原因、构造背景及动力学因素提供新视野.     

阴山造山带—鄂尔多斯盆地岩石圈层、块速度结构与深层动力过程

阴山造山带位于鄂尔多斯盆地的北缘,这一地带不仅是构造活动强、弱的变异地域,且为盆、山的耦合地带,故在造山带与盆地地域具有各异的深层动力过程.本文基于高精度人工源地震宽角反射、折射探测和高分辨率的数据采集,通过反演求得了满都拉—鄂尔多斯—榆林—延川长达650 km剖面辖区的岩石圈精细层、块结构.研究结果表明：①沿该剖面由南向北地壳厚度为40~45 km;在不同构造单元其介质、结构均不相同;速度分布、空间结构形态和界面起伏及属性亦存在着明显差异;上地幔顶部速度为8.0~8.1 km/s;②沿剖面存在5条深、大断裂,且将该区切割成为壳、幔结构明显差异的4个构造单元,即鄂尔多斯盆地、盆山耦合地带、阴山造山带、内蒙构造带,它们各自具有固有的深层过程和动力学响应.同时厘定了阴山造山带与内蒙构造带之间的白云鄂博深、大断裂带是古亚洲洋的南界.在这里不仅导致了阴山造山带的形成,而且聚集了诸多的金属矿产资源,地震亦频繁活动.基于上述研究表明,阴山造山带—鄂尔多斯盆地耦合地带的壳、幔结构复杂、呈现出速度结构各异的层、块状展布.显然,在这一错综的成山、成盆、成岩、成矿和成灾地带,有着特异的深层过程和动力机制.
