西藏纳木错及其入湖河流溶解有机碳和总氮浓度的季节变化

为深入理解纳木错湖水及入湖河流中溶解有机碳（DOC）和总氮（TN）浓度的季节变化特征及其影响因素,于2012-2013年不同季节对纳木错2个站点及流域内21条主要入湖河流进行采样及分析,采用统计学方法初步探讨纳木错水体和21条河流DOC和TN浓度季节变化特征.结果表明,河流DOC平均浓度范围为0.763~1.537 mg/L,TN平均浓度范围为0.179~0.387 mg/L.21条入湖河流DOC浓度在春末夏初和夏季达到高值,冬季为低值,TN浓度季节变化趋势大体上与DOC浓度相反.湖泊水体DOC和TN浓度范围分别为2.42~8.08和0.237~0.517 mg/L,明显分别高于河水中的浓度.湖泊DOC浓度季节变化趋势与河流一致,而TN浓度无明显的季节性变化.河水DOC浓度的季节变化和空间差异受控于河流的补给方式,湖水DOC浓度受湖泊内部藻类等水生植物活动和河流外源输入的影响.DOC等有机质的分解是影响纳木错流域湖水和河水TN浓度的重要原因.     

2017年9月23日朝鲜振动事件记录特征分析

2017年9月23日16时29分在朝鲜丰溪里核试验场发生3.4级地震。本文基于中国地震台网对该地震事件的波形记录,分析认为:该事件不是一次简单的单独过程,虽然事件开始时发生爆破,但事件主体是由断层错动产生的天然地震。这次事件是爆破和天然地震相继发生的复合型事件。     

利用跨断层资料研究首都圈地区断层活动特征及地震危险性

本文针对首都圈的跨断层形变资料（1984-2016年）,利用11个场地的基线和水准观测资料,计算了断层三维活动量,以此来分析首都圈断层现今的活动特征。同时计算了断层形变协调比序列,分析其与首都圈中强地震的关系。结果表明:首都圈的断层活动有明显的区域特征,受张家口-渤海断裂带影响的西北地区的断层以左旋张性活动为主,而中部和东部断层表现为右旋压性特征。断层协调比结果显示在首都圈及其邻区出现中强地震前后,协调比会出现发散现象,这种现象可以作为今后首都圈及邻近地区中强地震危险性分析的一种依据。     

纳木错水温变化及热力学分层特征初步研究

水温变化是湖泊的重要物理特性,对湖泊的水质特征、湖水能量循环、水生生态系统研究具有重要意义.基于不同季节的实地观测资料,分析青藏高原高海拔、深水大湖纳木错的水温变化特征及季节差异,并着重分析湖水热力学分层的季节变化.结果显示纳木错中部、东部两个湖盆冬季封冻,夏季存在稳定分层,春、秋季混合,是一个典型双季对流、完全混合型湖泊.但两个湖盆水温变化与热力学分层又有各自的特征,东部浅湖盆湖水在春季升温快,夏季分层与秋季翻转均比中部湖盆早,且秋季翻转时水温也比中部湖盆高.初步分析认为两个湖盆不同的湖盆形状及水深分布可能是造成其热力学特征差异的主要原因.     

渤海海峡及周边区域地壳结构的层析成像特征

渤海海峡是连接中国东部山东半岛和辽东半岛的重要途径,其跨海通道的地壳稳定性研究受到高度关注.本文利用地震层析成像方法重建三维P波速度模型,揭示了渤海海峡及周边区域地壳和上地幔的构造特征.结果表明,渤海海峡的速度结构存在明显的非均匀性,海峡北部地壳速度较高,结构较为完整,断层活动不明显,与现今较弱的地震活动相吻合,但是地壳底部存在低速薄层,它有可能成为地壳和上地幔之间的滑脱带,需要开展进一步的研究加以确认.相比之下,海峡南部地壳速度偏低,附近区域地震活动频繁,与张家口—蓬莱断裂带通过于此有着密切的联系,该断裂持续不断的地震活动对海峡南部的地壳结构产生了较大的影响.在渤海南部,郯庐断裂带东、西两侧的地壳结构明显不同,西侧速度偏高,东侧至渤海海峡速度偏低,这一特征可能与此地区广泛发育的断层和地震活动有关.另外,受华北克拉通破坏及地幔上涌的影响,渤海地区地壳深部和上地幔速度偏低,郯庐断裂带及渤海海峡附近显示出深部热流的活动迹象,反映了岩石圈减薄和软流圈的局部抬升.     

软流圈物质运动对鄂尔多斯块体周缘断陷盆地运动特征的影响

研究软流圈物质运动及其对断陷盆地运动特征的影响,是揭示软流圈与岩石圈相互作用,认识华北克拉通破坏的深部动力学过程的基础.本文以鄂尔多斯块体周缘断陷盆地为研究对象,利用数值方法模拟了盆地底部软流圈物质的运动,进而分析了软流圈物质运动对周缘断陷盆地运动特征的影响.研究结果表明:(1)软流圈物质水平运动的区域流向为NWW-SEE向,流速基本一致,局部略有变化.随着深度增加,局部变化特征不再显著;(2)软流圈物质垂向运动存在区域性差异,其中鄂尔多斯体块体北部、西部以及北缘、西缘底部,物质以下沉流为主,尤其西缘下沉流更显著;块体中部、东部以及南缘、西南缘底部,以上升流为主;东缘底部,上升流与下沉流相间分布,以上升流为主.随着深度增加,上述区域性差异特征依然明显;(3)依据热物质的水平拖曳和垂向拉张作用对断陷盆地可能产生的影响,进一步推测,软流圈物质运动有利于北缘盆地的剪切走滑,东缘盆地的伸展拉张,南缘盆地的走滑兼拉张,西缘和西南缘盆地的走滑.     

LATE QUATERNARY FAULTED LANDFORMS AND FAULT ACTIVITY OF THE HUASHAN PIEDMONT FAULT

Based on the 1︰50000 active fault geological mapping, combining with high-precision remote imaging, field geological investigation and dating technique, the paper investigates the stratum, topography and faulted landforms of the Huashan Piedmont Fault. Research shows that the Huashan Piedmont Fault can be divided into Lantian to Huaxian section (the west section), Huaxian to Huayin section (the middle section) and Huayin to Lingbao section (the east section) according to the respective different fault activity. The fault in Lantian to Huaxian section is mainly contacted by loess and bedrock. Bedrock fault plane has already become unsmooth and mirror surfaces or striations can not be seen due to the erosion of running water and wind. 10~20m high fault scarps can be seen ahead of mountain in the north section near Mayu gully and Qiaoyu gully, and we can see Malan loess faulted profiles in some gully walls. In this section terraces are mainly composed of T₁ and T₂ which formed in the early stage of Holocene and late Pleistocene respectively. Field investigation shows that T₁ is continuous and T₂ is dislocated across the fault. These indicate that in this section the fault has been active in the late Pleistocene and its activity becomes weaker or no longer active after that. In the section between Huaxian and Huayin, neotectonics is very obvious, fault triangular facets are clearly visible and fault scarps are in linear distribution. Terrace T₁, T₂ and T₃ develop well on both sides of most gullies. Dating data shows that T₁ forms in 2~3ka BP, T₂ forms in 6~7ka BP, and T₃ forms in 60~70ka BP. All terraces are faulted in this section, combing with average ages and scarp heights of terraces, we calculate the average vertical slip rates during the period of T₃ to T₂, T₂ to T₁ and since the formation of T₁, which are 0.4mm/a, 1.1mm/a and 1.6mm/a, and among them, 1.1mm/a can roughly represent as the average vertical slip rate since the middle stage of Holocene. Fault has been active several times since the late period of late Pleistocene according to fault profiles, in addition, Tanyu west trench also reveals the dislocation of the culture layer of(0.31~0.27)a BP. 1~2m high scarps of floodplains which formed in(400~600)a BP can be seen at Shidiyu gully and Gouyu gully. In contrast with historical earthquake data, we consider that the faulted culture layer exposed by Tanyu west trench and the scarps of floodplains are the remains of Huanxian M_S8½ earthquake. The fault in Huayin to Lingbao section is also mainly contacted by loess and mountain bedrock. Malan loess faulted profiles can be seen at many river outlets of mountains. Terrace geomorphic feature is similar with that in the west section, T₁ is covered by thin incompact Holocene sand loam, and T₂ is covered by Malan loess. OSL dating shows that T₂ formed in the early to middle stage of late Pleistocene. Field investigation shows that T₁ is continuous and T₂ is dislocated across the fault. These also indicate that in this section fault was active in the late Pleistocene and its activity becomes weaker or no longer active since Holocene. According to this study combined with former researches, we incline to the view that the seismogenic structure of Huanxian M_S8½ earthquake is the Huashan Piedmont Fault and the Northern Margin Fault of Weinan Loess, as for whether there are other faults or not awaits further study.     

Arctangent function‐based third derivative attribute for characterisation of faults

Using seismic attributes such as coherence and curvature to characterise faults not only can improve the efficiency of seismic interpretation but also can expand the capability to detect faults. The coherence and curvature have been widely applied to characterising faults for years. These two methods detect faults based on the similarity of seismic waveforms and shapes of the reflectors, respectively, and they are complementary to each other and both have advantages and disadvantages in fault characterisation. A recent development in fault characterisation based on reflector shapes has been the use of the rate of change of curvature. Through an application to the seismic data from Western Tazhong of the Tarim Basin, China, it was demonstrated that the rate of change of curvature is more capable of detecting subtle faults having quite small throws and heaves. However, there often exist multiple extreme values indicating the same fault when applying the rate of change of curvature, which significantly degrades the signal‐to‐noise ratio of the computation result for multiple extrema interfering with each other. To resolve this problem, we propose the use of a linear combination of arctangent and proportional functions as the directrix of a cylindrical surface to fit the fault model and calculate its third derivative, which can then be used to characterise the fault. Through an application to the 3D seismic data from Western Tazhong of the Tarim Basin, the results show that the proposed method not only retains the same capability to detect subtle faults having small throws as the curvature change rate but also greatly improves the signal‐to‐noise ratio of the calculated result.     

六盘山断裂带的地震构造特征与强震危险背景

集成活动构造与震源机制解、重新定位小震分布、历史与现今地震、GPS速度场等资料,综合分析了六盘山断裂带的构造动力学条件与变形方式、横剖面构造、历史强震破裂背景、GPS形变以及现代地震活动性,进而探讨了该断裂带的强震危险背景.结果表明：NNW向六盘山断裂带的运动与变形主要缘于青藏地块东北缘的向东水平挤出受到相对稳定的华北地块西缘（鄂尔多斯地块）阻挡而聚集的水平挤压作用;此外,海原和陇县-宝鸡两条NW向走滑断裂带的左旋运动在右阶区的局部会聚作用,也由六盘山断裂带的变形与运动来承受与转换.横剖面上,六盘山断裂带表现为向东推覆的大型逆冲构造带,主滑脱带位于~25 km深处,之下很可能存在分隔青藏与华北地块的超壳-岩石圈型深断裂带.沿六盘山断裂带中-南段以及更靠南东的陇县-宝鸡断裂带存在总长为120~140 km、至少最近~1400年未发生M ≥ 6½强震破裂的地震空区.地震空区内的断裂,GPS形变显示已有显著应变积累,地震活动上出现为小震稀疏或空缺的部位,以及低b值区,反映那里的断面业已闭锁,并已有高应力积累.因此,六盘山断裂带中-南段和陇县-宝鸡断裂带应是未来可能发生强震/大地震的两个危险地段,潜在地震的最大矩震级估值分别为M_W=7.3±和7.2±.     

龙门山断裂带北段南坝地区上地壳S波分裂特征

基于汶川科钻4号井孔（WFSD-4）附近的较小尺度的南坝微震台阵以及较大尺度的川西流动台站和区域台网的固定台站记录到的近震波形资料,通过横波窗内的S波分裂计算,分析了龙门山断裂带北段南坝地区的上地壳介质各向异性特征,并对区域应力场及构造特征展开讨论.S波分裂计算的结果显示研究区快波偏振方向主要表现为NE-NEE向,与北川断裂的走向一致,也与区域主压应力方向一致.小尺度密集分布的南坝微震台阵的计算结果进一步显示,靠近北川断裂的台站,其快波偏振方向与断裂走向一致,而距北川断裂较远的西北部台站的快波偏振方向与断裂走向不一致,反映了上地壳各向异性特征与地表的活动断裂结构密切相关.从南坝微震台阵的归一化时间延迟随时间的变化情况可以发现,在一个震中位于台阵布设范围内的地震事件发生前后,时间延迟有明显的变化,表明时间延迟随时间变化较为敏感,地震的能量影响了介质的性质.对比龙门山断裂带中段的科钻3号井孔周边地区的S波分裂计算结果,归一化时间延迟与本文结果一致,表明龙门山断裂带中段和北段的上地壳介质各向异性强度基本相同.
