Non-stationary covariance function modelling in 2D least-squares collocation

Standard least-squares collocation (LSC) assumes 2D stationarity and 3D isotropy, and relies on a covariance function to account for spatial dependence in the observed data. However, the assumption that the spatial dependence is constant throughout the region of interest may sometimes be violated. Assuming a stationary covariance structure can result in over-smoothing of, e.g., the gravity field in mountains and under-smoothing in great plains. We introduce the kernel convolution method from spatial statistics for non-stationary covariance structures, and demonstrate its advantage for dealing with non-stationarity in geodetic data. We then compared stationary and non- stationary covariance functions in 2D LSC to the empirical example of gravity anomaly interpolation near the Darling Fault, Western Australia, where the field is anisotropic and non-stationary. The results with non-stationary covariance functions are better than standard LSC in terms of formal errors and cross-validation against data not used in the interpolation, demonstrating that the use of non-stationary covariance functions can improve upon standard (stationary) LSC.     

Submarine canyons on the north of Chiwei Island:influenced by recent extension of the southern Okinawa Trough

Based on new multibeam bathymetric data and about 300 km long single seismic profiles, three topographic units were identified： the canyons, fractural valley and submarine terrace on the north of Chiwei Island where is a structural transition zone between the southern trough and the middle trough. The Chiwei Canyon and the North Chiwei Canyon are two of the largest canyons in the East China Sea （ECS） slope. Topographic features and architectures of them are described. The study shows that both of them are originated along faults. The evolution and spatial distribution of topographic units in the study area are controlled mainly by three groups of faults which were formed and reactive in the recent extensional phase of Okinawa Trough. The Chiwei Canyon was initia- ted during the middle Pleistocene and guided by F4 that is a N--S trending fault on the slope and F1, a large NW--SE trending fault on the trough. The pathway migration from the remnant channel to the present one of Chiwei Canyon is the result of uplift of tilted fault block that is coupled to the recent extension movements of the southern trough. The submarine terrace is detached from the ECS slope by the NEE -trending fault. The North Chiwei Canyon, developing during the late Pleistocene, is guided by FS, a N-S trending fault, diverted and blocked by the submarine terrace.     

营口-潍坊断裂带新生代运动学特征

营口-潍坊断裂带在新生代时期对渤海湾盆地东部构造、沉积及油气成藏规律等方面具有重要影响和控制作用.依据大量实际地震资料,从剖面上识别出了花状构造、丝带效应、反转构造等营口-潍坊断裂带新生代时期走滑活动的标志,在平面上识别出了4种组合构造样式,在此基础上,应用拉分盆地走滑量计算的理论模型,对营口-潍坊断裂带新生代时期的走滑位移量进行了初步估算,认为营口-潍坊断裂带在新生代时期具右旋走滑活动特征,其主要走滑活动表现为3期,分别为始新世早期、渐新世早-中期和上新世晚期-第四纪,新生代累计右旋走滑位移量约为10～20 km.     

基于构造—地层学的隐蔽圈闭预测——以松南十屋断陷深层为例

综合运用高精度层序地层学、构造一地层学方法,认为十屋断陷深层发育的各类隐蔽圈闭是下一步勘探工作的重要目标。同时,由于构造对沉积的控制作用,在断陷内部不同的构造部位具有不同的隐蔽圈闭分布特征。十屋断陷西部皮家地区、北部张家屯一八屋地区位于油气主要运移指向区,分别由断裂坡折带和以挠曲型褶皱为特征的弯折带控制的储集砂体十分发育,盖层及保存条件也十分优越,是深部原生岩性、地层油气藏最有利的勘探目标区带。     

珠江口盆地珠三坳陷层序地层样式分析

珠江口盆地珠三坳陷是一个典型的箕状断陷盆地,其层序地层格架受到主干断裂特别是珠三南断裂的强烈控制。由于珠三南断裂活动的差异性,盆地东部、中部和西部表现为不同的格架样式。并据此划分出坳陷内的3种典型层序样式,分别是缓坡型、断控陡坡型和断阶型层序样式。文昌A凹陷与阳江低凸起过渡的斜坡区和文昌B凹陷与琼海低凸起过渡区为具有坡折的缓坡背景,发育缓坡坡折型层序样式,发育斜坡扇、盆底扇、低位楔。珠三南断裂等主干断裂下降盘发育断控陡坡带层序样式,在珠三南断裂中部地区,发育断阶型层序样式。     

High-resolution record of tectonic and sedimentary processes in growth strata

Growth strata are used to determine the kinematics of synsedimentary structures such as faults. Classical methods of analysis such as thickness versus throw plot consider that the available space created by fault slip in the hanging wall of faults is instantaneously filled up by sediments. This has lead many previous works to identify a cyclic activity for growth faults. Here we perform a careful analysis of the variation of strata thicknesses on each side of a very well documented normal growth fault in the Niger delta. We show that these thickness variations are induced by the alternation of sedimentary processes during continuous fault slip. Suspended-load processes induce either uniform or slightly variable thickness of a large majority of mudstone layers. Bedload processes result in a preferential thickening of sand layers in the hanging wall. These high quality data thus provide strong grounds for doubting the polycyclic growth diagnosed for some faults at the scale of sedimentary cycles and supports the notion that fault displacement rates can be very well behaved. Our study emphasizes the important conclusion that stable fault growth, and related displacement rates, can appear to be punctuated when viewed at the scale of sedimentary cycles. It follows that care should be taken when attempting to derive displacement rates on temporal scales equivalent to those of alternating sedimentological cycles.

汶川地震对湖北地震活动趋势的影响

探讨汶川地震对湖北地震活动的影响,认为龙门山断裂带与襄樊-广济构造带同属于扬子板块西部和北部边缘,是扬子板块逆冲插入青藏板块和秦岭微板块之下形成的。历史强震统计结果表明,四川中西部及周边强震活动对湖北及周边地区中强地震活动影响明显,且对应率较高。汶川地震后3年内,湖北及周边地区具有发生中等强度地震的可能。同时也指出,近几年湖北及周边的地震活动是汶川地震前期东部地区应力场调整的结果。
