Elastic one-return boundary element method and hybrid elastic thin-slab propagator for strong-contrast media with sharp boundaries

In this paper, we developed the theory and algorithm of an elastic one-way boundary element method(BEM) and a corresponding hybrid elastic thin-slab propagator for earth media with sharp boundaries between strong contrast media. This approach can takes the advantage of accurate boundary condition of BEM and completely overcomes the weak contrast limitation of the perturbationtheory based one-way operator approach. The one-way BEM is a smooth boundary approximation, which avoids huge matrix operations in exact full BEM. In addition, the one-way BEM can model the primary-only transmitted and reflected waves and therefore is a valuable tool in elastic imaging and inversion. Through numerical tests for some simple models,we proved the validity and efficiency of the proposed method.     

Rupture pattern of the Oct 23, 2011 Van-Merkez,Eastern Turkey earthquake

High-frequency rupture process of the Oct 23, 2011 Van-Merkez earthquake is imaged by back-projection method using high-quality teleseismic P wave data from the US Array, and prestack Kirchhoff migration using P wave data from a subarray of global seismic networks. The rupture model with two asperities is confirmed by previous two methods. In low-frequency imaging, a large asperity derived from the migration method corresponds to the second one from the high-frequency P waves. The consistency of the locations of asperities from datasets with different frequency bands indicates that there is possible insignificance of the frequency-dependent feature for the earthquake. The resultant images illustrate the spatial and temporal evolution of the rupture, which mainly propagated WSW over a length of 33 km during the first 18 s, accompanying with bursts of two asperities at 3 and 11–13 s. The rupture direction is confirmed by the S wave corner frequency variations of strong ground accelerations. The rupture fronts are mainly located at the updip of the causative fault. Based on polarities of the P waveforms and focal mechanisms of the mainshock and aftershocks, the failure of these two asperities is determined to have occurred on a reverse fault with a dip angle of 47°. Hence, the rupture pattern of the 2011 Van-Merkez earthquake was dominated by a unilateral rupture toward the west-southwest direction.     

湖南祁东清水塘铅锌矿床流体包裹体研究

在野外地质调查基础上,本文通过湖南祁东清水塘铅锌矿床流体包裹体显微测温和激光拉曼探针成分,以及氢、氧同位素等综合研究,并参照前人研究成果,探讨清水塘铅锌矿床形成的物理化学条件。流体包裹体显微观察表明,不同矿物载体中流体包裹体发育程度不一,但以富液相两相水溶液包裹体为主。其中闪锌矿和方解石载体中的流体包裹体相对比较发育,数量较多;石英载体中包裹体不太发育,数量较少。流体包裹体显微测温显示闪锌矿、石英和方解石的均一温度分别为109~188℃、122~239℃和144~326℃,盐度分别为9.47%~20.97%,NaCleq.、0.18%~16.62%,NaCleq.和0.18%~7.31%,NaCleq.。闪锌矿的均—温度和盐度相对比较集中,其中富气相两相水溶液包裹体的气相成分主要为水蒸汽。含矿石英的氢、氧同位素的δD(H_2O,V-SNOW)值为-98.9‰~-79.3‰,δ~(18)O(H_2O,V-SMOW)值为-8.10‰~0.63‰,表明成矿流体以岩浆水为主,混有大气降水。以上研究表明清水塘铅锌矿床的成矿流体演化相对比较单一,成矿主要以混合作用为主。

Simulation of the seismic response of sedimentary basins with constant-gradient velocity along arbitrary direction using boundary element method:SH case

We presented a boundary element method using the approximate analytical Green's function given by Sánchez-Sesma et al.Coordinate transform is introduced to extend the method to deal with the model with constant-gradient velocity along oblique direction.The method is validated by comparing the numerical results with other independent methods.This method provides a useful tool for analyzing local site effects.We computed seismic response for two series of models.The results in both frequency and time domains are analyzed and show complex amplification patterns.The fundamental mode of resonance is dependent not only on the velocity at the free surface but also on the velocity distribution of the whole basin.For the higher modes of vibration the heterogeneous basin also has its own characteristic.     

Early Triassic Silicic Volcanics of South China: Petrogenesis and Constraints on the Geodynamic Evolution of the Paleo-Tethys Ocean Region

The only occurrence of Lower Triassic silicic volcanic rocks within the South China Block is in the Qinzhou Bay area of Guangxi Province. LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating reveals that volcanic rocks of the Beisi and Banba formations formed between 248.8 ± 1.6 and 246.5 ± 1.3 Ma, coeval with peraluminous granites of the Qinzhou Bay Granitic Complex. The studied rhyolites and dacites are characterized by high SiO2, K2O, and Al2O3, and low MgO, CaO, and P2O5 contents and are classified as high-K calc-alkaline S-type rocks, with A/CNK = 0.98–1.19. The volcanic rocks are depleted in high ?eld strength elements, e.g., Nb, Ta, Ti, and P, and enriched in large ion lithophile elements, e.g., Rb, K, Sr, and Ba. Although the analyzed volcanic rocks have extremely enriched zircon Hf isotopic compositions (εHf(t) = ?29.1 to ?6.9), source discrimination indicators and high calculated Ti-in-zircon temperatures (798–835°C) reveal that magma derived from enriched lithospheric mantle not only provided a heat source for anatectic melting of the metasedimentary protoliths but was also an endmember component of the S-type silicic magma. The studied early Triassic volcanics are inferred to have formed immediately before closure of the Paleo-Tethys Ocean in this region, as the associated subduction would have generated an extensional setting in which the mantle-derived upwelling and volcanic activity occurred.     

Precipitation and hydrological variations and related associations with large‐scale circulation in the Poyang Lake basin,China

Long streamflow series and precipitation data are analysed in this study with aim to investigate changing properties of precipitation and associated impacts on hydrological processes of the Poyang Lake basin. Underlying causes behind the precipitation variations are also explored based on the analysis of the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) and the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) reanalysis data. Besides, water intrusion from the Yangtze River to the Poyang Lake basin is studied. The results indicate that (1) seasonal transitions of precipitation are observed, showing increasing precipitation in winter, slight increase and even decrease of precipitation in summer; (2) analysis of water vapour circulation indicates decreasing/increasing water vapour flux in summer/winter; in winter, water vapour flux tends to be from the Pacific. Altered water vapour flux is the major cause behind the altered precipitation changes across the Poyang Lake basin and (3) occurrence of water intrusion from the Yangtze River to the Poyang Lake basin is heavily influenced by hydrological processes of the Poyang Lake basin. Effects of the hydrological processes from the middle Yangtze River on the occurrence of water intrusion events are not significant. The results of this study indicate that floods and droughts should share the same concerns from the scholars and policy makers. Besides, the altered hydrological circulation and associated seasonal transition of precipitation drive us to face new challenges in terms of conservations of wetlands and ecological environment under the changing climate.
