The mechanisms of shallow earthquakes and the monitoring of a comprehensive test ban

The ability of seismological criteria to identify earthquakes from underground explosions depends partly on the orientation of the earthquake source. Well-determined double-couple moment tensor solutions for a large number of earthquakes have been published in the Harvard centroid moment tensor (CMT) and United Slates Geological Survey (USGS) catalogues. Statistical analyses of these catalogues indicate that the distribution of the orientation of earthquake mechanisms is not random. The distribution of the T axes shows significant clustering around the downward vertical, indicating that a larger number of earthquake mechanisms radiate compressional P -wave energy to teleseismic distances from near the maximum of the radiation pattern than is predicted if earthquake sources are randomly oriented double couples. The clustered T axes correspond to compressional dip-slip mechanisms, and it is this type of mechanism which is believed to cause both the m _b: M _s (the ratio of body-wave to surface-wave magnitude) and first-motion criteria to misidentify an earthquake as an explosion.     

Deconvolution of teleseismic recordings for mantle structure

Delineation of detailed mantle structure frequently requires the separation of source signature and structural response from seismograms recorded at teleseismic distances. This deconvolution problem can be posed in a log-spectral domain where the operation of time-domain convolution is reduced to an additive form. The introduction of multiple events recorded at many stations leads to a system of consistency equations that must be honoured by both the source time functions and the impulse responses associated with propagation paths between sources and receivers. The system is inherently singular, and stabilization is accomplished through the supply of an initial estimate of the source time function. Although alternative choices exist, an effective estimate is derived from the eigenimage associated with the largest eigenvalue in a singular-value decomposition of the suite of aligned seismograms corresponding to a given event. The relation of the deconvolution scheme to simultaneous least-squares deconvolution is examined. Application of the methodology to broadband teleseismic P waveforms recorded on the Canadian National Seismograph Network demonstrates the retrieval of effective Green's functions including secondary phases associated with upper-mantle structure.

陕西直罗油田长_2油层组储层特征

直罗油田主力产层为三叠系延长组长2油层组，储层以三角洲分支河道砂体为主，岩性主要为长石细砂岩，大量的自生矿物对原生孔隙产生了很大程度的破坏。较强的成岩后生作用使得储层以粒间溶孔及原生粒间余孔为主要储集空间。储层孔隙结构表现为以小孔隙、小喉道为主要特征，非均质性较强。物性分布主要与其在砂体中的分布部位有关。

天山东段尾亚地区白尖山超单元特征

早石炭世白尖山超单元横亘于尾亚站东西两侧，沙泉子断裂以南的狭长地带（研究区长５０余千米，宽３～６ｋｍ）。它是北部觉洛塔格早石炭世火山型被动陆缘与其南（以沙泉子断裂为界）卡瓦布拉克古陆块汇聚事件的产物。这次事件导致沿卡瓦布拉克地块北缘成线状分布的巨大岩基链的形成，即该带事实上成为一个活动陆缘弧──白尖山岩浆弧（白尖山超单元）。根据各岩石单元的接触关系，白尖山超单元由早至晚为辉长岩—石英闪长岩—花岗闪长岩—二长花岗岩—钾长花岗岩—碱长花岗岩。从沙泉子断裂向南，大体上反映出偏基性的石英闪长岩单元偏北侧分布，钾长花岗岩及碱长花岗岩单元偏南分布，表现出当时碰撞带的特性。由于晚石炭世末受到韧性剪切作用，大部分产生塑性变形，成为初糜棱岩—超糜棱岩的花岗质岩石，宏观上似具片麻状构造。无论从岩石学、岩石化学及地球化学特征方面来看，均具同源岩浆演化的特征。白尖山超单元侵入于含早石炭世动物化石的卡拉火大山组中，被二叠纪尾亚超单元组合（原尾亚岩体）侵入，测定Ｕ—Ｐｂ同位素年龄为３３８．４Ｍａ及３２５．２４Ｍａ，从而确定白尖山超单元形成时代为早石炭世。     

Magmatic arc metamorphism: petrology and temperature history of metabasic rocks in the Coastal Cordillera of northern Chile

We investigated the metamorphic cooling history of underplated magmatic rocks at midcrustal depth. Granulites and amphibolites occur within the Jurassic magmatic belt of the Coast Range south of Antofagasta in northern Chile between 23°25' and 24°20' S. The protoliths of the metamorphic rocks are basic intrusions of Early Mesozoic age. They are part of the magmatically formed crust, and the essentially dry magmas were emplaced in an extensional regime. The granulites (clinopyroxene–orthopyroxene–plagioclase) show all stages of fabric development from magmatic to granoblastic fabrics. Pyroxene compositions were reset at temperatures around 800°  C independent of the stage of textural equilibration. The granulites were partially amphibolitized at upper amphibolite facies temperatures of 600–700°  C. Following cooling, a possible reheating to greenschist facies temperatures around 500°  C is indicated by prograde zoning in magnetite–ilmenite pairs. Mineral assemblages are not suitable for barometry, but a conservative estimation of the garnet-in reaction at given whole-rock compositions suggests maximum pressures in the granulite facies of around 5 kbar, and similar pressures are indicated by phengite barometry for the greenschist facies. The P–T  path of granulite–amphibolite metamorphism is one of slow cooling from magmatic temperatures with heterogeneous deformation. The thinning of the pre-Andean (Precambrian–Triassic) crust was apparently compensated by the magmatic underplating and this special tectonomagmatic setting caused the prolonged residence of the accreted rocks at midcrustal levels.
