The coseismic Coulomb stress change caused by fault interaction and its influences on the triggering and delaying of earthquake are briefly discussed.The Xianshuihe fault belt consists of Luhuo,Daofu,Kangding,Qianning and Ganzi fault.Luohuo(Ms=7.6,1973)-Kangding(Ms=6.2,1975)-Daofu(Ms=6.9,1981)-Ms=6.0,1982)earthquake is a seismic sequence continuous on the time axis with magnitude greater than6.0.They occurred on the Luhuo.Kangding,Daofu and Ganzi fault,respectively.The coseismic Coulomb stress changes caused by each earthquake on its surrounding major faults and microcracks are calculated,and their effects on the triggering and delaying of the next earthquake and aftershocks are analyzed.It is shown that each earthquake of the sequence occurred on the fault segment with coseismic Coulomb stress increases caused by its predecessors,and most after-shocks are distributed along the microcracks with relatively larger coseismic Coulomb stress increases resulted from the main shock.With the fault interaction considered,the seismic potential of each segment along Xianshuihe fault belt is reassessed,and contrasted with those predicted results ignoring coseismic Coulomb stress change,the significance of fault interaction and its effect on triggering and delaying of earthquake are emphasized.It is con-cluded that fault interaction plays a very important role on seismic potential of Xianshuihe fault belt,and the maximal change of future earthquake probability on fault segment is up to 30.5%.  相似文献   

Deformable backstop as seaward end of coseismic slip in the Nankai Trough seismogenic zone

Wide-angle seismic surveys performed in the last decade have clarified the 3-D crustal structure along the Nankai Trough. The geometry and velocity structure of the southwestern Japan subduction zone are now well constrained. Comparing these observations with the rupture distribution of historic great thrust earthquakes, it appears that the coseismic rupture occurred along plate boundaries deeper than the wedge/backstop boundary (the boundary between the Neogene-Quaternary accretionary wedge and the crust forming the backstop). From the view of spatial relationship, both rupture distributions of the last two large events and the crust forming the backstop are considerably retreated from the trough axis in the west and east off the Kii Peninsula. In both areas, seamount or ridge subduction is apparent in seismic results, geomorphological data and geomagnetic data. The landward indentation of the deformable backstop, which corresponds to the crustal block of old accreted sediments, may be formed by seamount subduction according to published results of sandbox modeling. In particular, the subducted seamount may be a structural factor affecting the recession of the crustal block forming the backstop.  相似文献   

Response of vertical deformation on faults to remote strong earthquakes

Vertical coseismic deformation on non-causative fault caused by remote strong earthquakes(epicentral distance≥1500 km,MS≥7.0)are observed by fault-monitoring instruments of new type during recent two years.The monitor-ing result shows,delay time,maximum amplitude and duration of vertical deformation on the non-causative faulthave remarkable close relationship with earthquakes magnitude and epicentral distance.The delay time of verticalcoseismic deformation have positive linear relationship with epicentral distance.The velocity of coseismic defor-mation is 5.5 km/s,close to the velocity of surface wave in granite.The logarithms of maximum amplitude of co-seismic deformation and epicentral distance have remarkable linear relationship with magnitude.The greater themagnitude and the closer the epicentral distance are,the bigger the maximum amplitude of coseismic deformationon non-causative fault will be.Relative to the epicentral distance,the magnitude is the most important factor to theduration of coseismic vertical deformation on the non-causative fault.Stronger earthquake causes longer vibrationduration of coseismic deformation.The experiential equation of co-seismic deformation faults obtained by thiswork is significant on the coseismic deformation research.  相似文献   

Tele-seismic coseismic well temperature changes and their interpretation   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Coseismic water level oscillation and correlated deep water temperature changes have been observed in a water well at Tangshan City by high sensitivity measurement. Amount of water temperature changes depend on ampli-tude of water level oscillation. Coseismic water temperatures always decrease as water level oscillates, drop of temperature ranges from 0.001 °C to 0.01 °C corresponding to amplitude of water level oscillation from several centimeters to about one meter. Temperatures usually recover one to several hours after the oscillation. We suggest that the temperature drop is produced by dispersive transfer of heat as the water oscillates, and follow-up thermal conduction makes temperature recovery. Our finite element calculations support quantitatively the idea. High ac-curacy measurements of water temperature at different depths in the future may test our interpretation.  相似文献   

Coseismic effects of water temperature based on digital observation from Tayuan well, Beijing   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

On the basis of digital records from Tayuan well,we study coseismic effects of water temperature caused by re-mote earthquakes.The records show that the water temperature changes are consistently following the process ofdrop-rise-recovery regardless of focal mechanism or epicentral directions.The step amplitude of water temperatureincreases with the increase of earthquake magnitude,and decreases with the decrease of epicentral distances.Theyhave rather well correlation.Water temperature rising after earthquake is influenced by water level variations.Fi-nally,the mechanisms of coseismic effects of water temperature have been discussed.Preliminary study shows thataccelerated convection and mixing of different temperature water in virtue of seismic wave are the main causes ofwater temperature drops.Seismic wave accelerates water convection,which causes warm water to move up fromdeeper part of the well and cold water to go down from the upper part.Temperature probe will detect water tem-perature drops at early stage.After the occurrence of earthquake,as the fluctuation of water level gradually quietsdown,water temperature near the probe begins to rise.  相似文献   

Approximate recovery of coseismic deformation from Taiwan strong-motion records   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3

Since 1990, digital strong-motion accelerographs and global positioning system (GPS) instruments have been widely deployed in the Taiwan region (Shin et al. 2003; Yu et al. 2001). The 1999 Chi-Chi, Mw 7.6 earthquake and the 2003 Chengkung, Mw 6.8 earthquake were well recorded by both digital accelerographs and GPS instruments. These data offer a good opportunity to determine coseismic displacements from strong-motion records and to compare the results with those derived from GPS measurements. As noted by Boore (2001), a double integration of the acceleration data often leads to unreasonable results, and baseline corrections are therefore required in most cases before the integration. Based on the works of Iwan et al. (1985) and Boore (2001), we developed an improved method for baseline correction and validated it using an extensive set of data from shake-table tests of a known “step” displacement on 249 accelerographs. Our baseline correction method recovered about 97% of the actual displacement from the shake-table data. We then applied this baseline correction method to compute coseismic displacements from the strong-motion data of the Chi-Chi and Chengkung earthquakes. Our results agree favorably with the coseismic displacements determined by the GPS measurements at nearby sites. The ratio of seismic to geodetic displacement varies from 0.78 to 1.41, with an average of about 1.05.  相似文献

九寨沟Ms7.0地震的InSAR观测及断层破裂研究     

熊威  罗三明 《大地测量与地球动力学》2019,39(5):452-457

为提高九寨沟2017-08-08 MS7.0地震的InSAR同震形变场精度，厘清发震断层的构造形态及形成机制，对形变区相干系数进行统计分析并确定相干性阈值，利用GACOS对形变场进行大气校正，再根据余震分布和地质背景确定发震断层的基本形状，最后基于Okada弹性半空间位错模型反演发震断层的滑动分布。改正后的InSAR同震形变场显示，视线向最大下沉为25 cm，最大抬升为10 cm，分别位于震中西北和东南，形变长轴为北西向,主要形变区位于发震断层西部。改正后的InSAR形变场残差均方根较改正前小，最大滑动量为0.9 m，平均滑动角为-0.5°，破裂主要集中在地下1~20 km范围内，矩震级为6.5，与USGS和GCMT等机构的结果一致。研究表明，利用GACOS改正九寨沟InSAR同震形变场对提高形变场精度具有一定的作用，反演断层滑动分布的结果较改正前差别不明显，发震断层的属性与虎牙断裂北段的性质基本一致。结合余震重定位结果可以推断，发震断层为虎牙断裂的北向延伸部分，此次地震事件为巴颜喀拉地块南东向扭转与华南地块碰撞的结果，中下地壳粘性流体的差异分布是导致虎牙断裂倾角变化的主要原因。  相似文献
