黄土塬区地震勘探测量方法研究

黄土塬区地形地貌复杂,地震勘探测量施工困难：一是GPS参考站如何布设;二是在大落差等特殊地形区域的GPS测量作业如何实施;三是在GPS作业盲区测量作业如何实现.针对以上难点,提出了三种测量施工方法：一是分阶段,逐步加密控制点进行工区内GPS参考站的布设;二是通过增加参考站电台天线的高度、发展多个参考站或使用中继站来解决GPS参考站主站信息覆盖不到区域的实测问题;三是通过全站仪、测绳等常规测量方法来实现GPS作业盲区物理点的逐点实测.应用以上测量方法,可有效解决地震勘探测量在黄土塬区遇到的问题,实现黄土塬区物理点的逐点实测.     

Correlation Fractal and Multifractal Characteristics of Seismic Activity in the Taiwan Area, China

Based on the analysis of newly collected data of plate tectonics, distribution of active faults and crustal deformation, the Taiwan area is divided into two seismic regions and six seismic belts. Then, correlation fractal dimensions of all the regions and belts are calculated, and the fractal characteristics of hypocenteral distribution can be quantitatively analyzed. Finally, multifractal dimensions Dq and f(α) are calculated by using the earthquake catalog of the past 11 years in the Taiwan area. This study indicates that (1) there exists a favorable corresponding relationship between spatial images of seismic activity described with correlation fractal dimension analysis and tectonic settings; (2) the temporal structure of earthquakes is not single but multifractal fractal, and the pattern of Dq variation with time is a good indicator for predicting strong earthquake events.     

浅析福建地倾斜潮汐因子γ及其组合动态特征

本文计算了福建自1992年至2004年以来的地倾斜EW和NS两分量的固体潮潮汐因子,并进行动态组合,绘制组合动态三种特征量:ΔγEW ΔγNS(表征扩容)、ΔγEW-ΔγNS(表征剪切应变)、ΔγEW/ΔγNS(表征介质各向异性)的时序曲线图,并进行固体潮特征分析,寻找中、强地震发生前远场块体和近场块体地倾斜突变性形变异常与之对应关系。结果表明:在福建沿海,海潮是决定倾斜固体潮特征的主要因素;福建发生5级上的中强地震、台湾发生7级以上强烈地震时,福建地倾斜固体潮潮汐因子及其动态组合特征存在明显的渐进式突变性形变异常现象,异常量和异常持续时间与震级和震中距有较好的对应关系。
