Progress in the Application of Ground Gravity Observation Data in Earthquake Prediction

The mechanism of earthquake inoculation and the process of earthquake occurrence are very complicated. Additionally, earthquakes do not happen very often, and we lack enough cognition to the earth’s interior structure, activity regularity and other key elements. As a result, research progress about the theory of earthquake precursors has been greatly restricted. Ground gravity observation has become one of the main ways to study earthquake precursor information in many countries and regions. This paper briefly summarized the surface gravity observation technology and observation network in China: the surface gravity measurement instrument developed from Huygens physical pendulum in seventeenth Century to today’s high-precision absolute gravimeter, and its accuracy reached to ±1×10^-8 m/s². China has successively established the National Gravity Network, Digital Earthquake Observation Network of China,the Crustal Movement Observation Network of China Ⅰ and the Crustal Movement Observation Network of China, to provide a public platform for monitoring non tidal gravity change, seismic gravity and tectonic movement. The use of specific examples illustrated the role of gravity observation data in earthquake prediction. The gravity observation data of ground gravity can be used to capture the information of gravity change in the process of strong earthquake inoculation, and to provide an important basis for the long-term prediction of strong earthquakes. The temporal and spatial variation characteristics of the regional gravity field and its relation to strong earthquakes were analyzed: Before the earthquake whose magnitude is higher than M_S 5, generally there will be a large amplitude and range of gravity anomaly zones. Strong earthquakes occur mainly in areas where the gravity field changes violently. The dynamic change images of gravity field can clearly reflect the precursory information of large earthquakes during the inoculation and occurrence. Finally, the existing problems of surface gravity technology in earthquake precursor observation were put forward and the use of gravity measurement data in earthquake prediction research was prospected.     

Geological Controls on the CBM Productivity of No.15 Coal Seam of Carboniferous–Permian Taiyuan Formation in Southern Qinshui Basin and Prediction for CBM High-yield Potential Regions

Coalbed methane (CBM) resources in No.15 coal seam of Taiyuan Formation account for 55% of the total CBM resources in southern Qinshui Basin (SQB), and have a great production potential. This study aims at investigating the CBM production in No.15 coal seam and its influence factors. Based on a series of laboratory experiments and latest exploration and development data from local coal mines and CBM companies, the spatial characteristics of gas production of No.15 coal seam were analyzed and then the influences of seven factors on the gas productivity of this coal seam were discussed, including coal thickness, burial depth, gas content, ratio of critical desorption pressure to original coal reservoir pressure (RCPOP), porosity, permeability, and hydrogeological condition. The influences of hydrological condition on CBM production were analyzed based on the discussions of four aspects: hydrogeochemistry, roof lithology and its distribution, hydrodynamic field of groundwater, and recharge rate of groundwater. Finally, a three-level analytic hierarchy process (AHP) evaluation model was proposed for predicting the CBM potentials of the No.15 coal seam in the SQB. The best prospective target area for CBM production of the No.15 coal seam is predicted to be in the districts of Panzhuang, Chengzhuang and south of Hudi.     

几种梯度场计算的数值算法及其地学应用

梯度作为标量场在空间上最重要的微观变化特征,能较好地反映其在空间上的变化趋势。本文介绍了中心差分算子、相邻梯度因子和Sobel梯度算子三种梯度数值算法。以点电荷在三维空间中产生的电势场构造了一标量场,通过理论公式求解了其梯度值,并将理论梯度值与三种数值算法的结果进行了对比与统计分析,验证了三种梯度数值算法的有效性和适用性。结果表明,排除场源的影响后,Sobel梯度算子相较其它两种数值算法更逼近于理论梯度值。最后,利用Sobel梯度算子求取了某铜矿区可控源音频大地电磁法(CSAMT)三维视电阻率场的梯度场,用梯度场刻画了视电阻率在空间上的变化趋势,提高了对三维地下空间的电性分布规律和地质情况的认识。     

川滇黔邻区龙马溪组页岩气富集主控因素与勘探方向

中国的页岩气资源评价必须立足于中国主要陆块的地质条件与构造演化特点之上,对于不同层系、不同地区的页岩气选区评价,也必须抓住关键因素。川滇黔邻区的五峰组-龙马溪组富有机质页岩发育,但保存条件较渝东南地区更为复杂。印支期以来,该区经历了多期次构造应力场转换,断裂、褶皱发育,因此,建立针对性的页岩气选区评价参数体系是该区页岩气勘探走出困局的当务之急。本文在分析该区已有页岩气钻井成效的基础上,立足于扬子海相层系页岩气勘探应是基于保存条件的"连续型甜点区"的选区评价基本思路,结合前人研究成果,系统梳理出一套评价指标体系。该体系涵盖5大因素(区域盖层、直接盖层、底板条件、页岩层自身条件、构造改造强度)、4个等级、17个选区评价参数。另外,根据已有相关钻井数据,总结提出了5个页岩气层评价表征参数(含气量、孔隙度、电阻率、氮气组分含量和压力系数)。根据该指标体系,对川滇黔邻区的主要构造单元进行了梳理分析,优选出5个有利区,提出了各有利区的首选可能突破点。本研究对复杂构造区页岩气有利区带优选具有一定的指导意义。     

太行山中段城南庄一带隐伏岩体及找矿前景分析

麻棚和赤瓦屋岩体都位于太行山中段热液金属矿成矿区内,在其周围已发现石湖石英脉大型金矿等60余处热液型矿床(点),其深部和外围可能存在找矿前景。本文通过探讨太行山中段城南庄一带遥感环形构造和重力负场特征与金属矿床和岩体的耦合关系,从城南庄卫星式-多层蘑菇群式遥感环形构造群、重力负场、中酸性岩脉侵入和温泉五种证据,推测城南庄深部存在比麻棚和赤瓦屋岩体大近六倍、面积约700 km~2的中酸性隐伏岩体—城南庄隐伏岩体。城南庄隐伏岩体边界基本与布格重力负异常边界吻合,呈长轴北东向宽缓带状展布,向南西方向倾伏,北侧埋深较浅、南侧埋深较深。城南庄隐伏岩体边部(特别是产状缓外倾,具有良好成矿空间的区域)和顶部与围岩的接触带位置、环形构造形成的晚期"小岩体"内部及附近位置和中酸性岩脉附近位置是寻找热液型矿床的有利部位。     

云南勐野井钾矿区及周边泉水水化学特征及地表钾异常成因分析

勐野井钾盐矿位于云南省兰坪-思茅盆地的南部,是我国目前发现的唯一一个具有工业开采价值的固体钾盐矿床.本文对该矿区及周边泉水等的水化学特征和地表钾异常成因进行了探讨.研究区含盐地层分布广泛,盐泉出露较多,通过对地表泉水、泉水沉积物、水中逸出气体及垂直断裂的测线剖面样品等取样分析,可以捕捉地表钾异常信息,对于成钾机理研究和钾盐找矿都有着积极的作用.结合以往研究证实了勐野井矿区附近盐泉水具有I级异常显示.沿垂直于断裂方向的剖面采集的土壤样品中,钾及相关组分的峰值和谷值的出现有一定的规律性,认为各元素含量异常是由深部流体(水、气)沿断裂上升补给造成的.泉水稀有气体He主要为深部壳源,个别为幔源,推断研究区的大断裂可能切至深部地壳,个别深切到软流圈上部.泉水氢氧同位素和锶同位素组成研究表明,该区泉水具有深部补给特征,存在一定程度的水-岩反应,受火山岩的影响较大,氢氧同位素和矿物学研究表明,深部热液在勐野井钾盐矿床形成过程中起重要作用.本研究认为深部补给是勐野井矿区及周边地表钾异常形成的重要补给源,火山岩可能是重要的物质来源之一,而断裂带是其重要的控制因素.
