Inhomogeneous distribution of deep slow earthquake activity along the strike of the subducting Philippine Sea Plate     

Kazushige Obara   《Gondwana Research》2009,16(3-4):512-526

The spatial distribution of deep slow earthquake activity along the strike of the subducting Philippine Sea Plate in southwest Japan is investigated. These events usually occur simultaneously between the megathrust seismogenic zone and the deeper free-slip zone on the plate interface at depths of about 30 km. Deep low-frequency tremors are weak prolonged vibrations with dominant frequencies of 1.5–5 Hz, whereas low-frequency earthquakes correspond to isolated pulses included within the tremors. Deep very-low-frequency earthquakes have long-period (20 s) seismic signals, and short-term slow-slip events are crustal deformations lasting for several days. Slow earthquake activity is not spatially homogeneous but is separated into segments some of which are bounded by gaps in activity. The spatial distribution of each phase of slow earthquake activity is usually coincident, although there are some inconsistencies. Very-low-frequency earthquakes occur mainly at edges of segments. Low-frequency earthquakes corresponding to tremors of relatively large amplitude are concentrated at spots where tremors are densely distributed within segments. The separation of segments by gaps suggests large differences in stick-slip and stable sliding caused by frictional properties of the plate interface. Within each segment, variations in the spatial distribution of slow earthquakes reflected inhomogeneities corresponding to the characteristic scales of events.  相似文献

胶-辽-吉构造带中段古元古代辽河群早期构造事件(D_1)中构造要素几何学特征及其动力学来源   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0

华北克拉通东部陆块中胶-辽-吉构造带在古元古代经历了复杂的变形-变质-岩浆事件。前人工作中,对于辽河群早期构造事件(D_1)的形成背景还存在较大的争议。本文针对辽河群第一期变形(D_1)中产生的各种构造要素,进行了详细的野外构造解析工作。D_1中构造要素主要包括了透入性面理S_1、褶皱F_1及其剪切带SZ_1。其中变泥质岩透入性S1面理劈理域主要由石英、云母、长石和石榴子石等矿物定向排列组成,矿物组合显示了绿片岩相变质作用。F_1褶皱包含了紧闭褶皱、倒转褶皱、鞘褶皱和平卧褶皱等。与D_1相关构造要素的几何学及其运动学特征都指示了D_1形成于挤压环境的动力学背景。此外,研究区辽河群内不仅可以观察到大量的倒转地层,还可见与第一期构造事件(D_1)相关的逆冲断层及其断层相关褶皱,同样指示了D_1形成于挤压环境。结合区域上变质作用和岩浆作用的资料,本研究认为:(1)南、北辽河群中泥质岩及其基性岩都经历了顺时针的P-T-t演化轨迹,M_2变质级别达到了中压环境,过程与地壳的挤压增厚相关,而不是与裂谷过程的低压变质作用相关;(2)花岗岩和基性岩的地球化学和年代学特征显示了胶-辽-吉构造带中段古元古代经历了俯冲作用的影响。综上,辽河群早期构造事件(D_1)受到俯冲挤压的影响,形成于俯冲(造山)背景。  相似文献   

Hybrid event beds dominated by transitional‐flow facies: character,distribution and significance in the Maastrichtian Springar Formation,north‐west Vøring Basin,Norwegian Sea          下载免费PDF全文

Hybrid event beds comprising clay‐poor and clay‐rich sandstone are abundant in Maastrichtian‐aged sandstones of the Springar Formation in the north‐west Vøring Basin, Norwegian Sea. This study focuses on an interval, informally referred to as the Lower Sandstone, which has been penetrated in five wells that are distributed along a 140 km downstream transect. Systematic variations in bed style within this stratigraphic interval are used to infer variation in flow behaviour in relatively proximal and distal settings, although individual beds were not correlated. The Lower Sandstone shows an overall reduction in total thickness, bed amalgamation, sand to mud ratio and grain size in distal wells. Turbidites dominated by clay‐poor sandstone are at their most common in relatively proximal wells, whereas hybrid event beds are at their most common in distal wells. Hybrid event beds typically comprise a basal clay‐poor sandstone (non‐stratified or stratified) overlain by banded sandstone, with clay‐rich non‐stratified sandstone at the bed top. The dominant type of clay‐poor sandstone at the base of these beds varies spatially; non‐stratified sandstone is thickest and most common proximally, whereas stratified sandstone becomes dominant in distal wells. Stratified and banded sandstone record progressive deposition of the hybrid event bed. Thus, the facies succession within hybrid event beds records the longitudinal heterogeneity of flow behaviour within the depositional boundary layer; this layer changed from non‐cohesive at the front, through a region of transitional behaviour (fluctuating non‐cohesive and cohesive flow), to cohesive behaviour at the rear. Spatial variation in the dominant type of clay‐poor sandstone at the bed base suggests that the front of the flow remained non‐cohesive, and evolved from high‐concentration and turbulence‐suppressed to increasingly turbulent flow; this is thought to occur in response to deposition and declining sediment fallout. This research may be applicable to other hybrid event bed prone systems, and emphasizes the dynamic nature of hybrid flows.  相似文献   

Neoproterozoic-Paleozoic Tectonic Evolution of the Northeastern Tarim Block: Constraints from 40Ar/39Ar Geochronology in the Kuluketage Area, NW China

Seventeen new 40Ar/39Ar analyses reported for ten Tarim Precambrian basement samples from the Kuluketage area, are applied to reconstruct the regional thermo-tectonic history together with previously published data. Eight samples were taken adjacent to the Xingdi and Xinger faults, major structures in the study area, whereas a further two were sampled at some distance from the faults. 40Ar/39Ar data from the latter record rapid cooling following a Neoproterozoic magmatic/metamorphic event and mild Paleozoic thermal disturbance. Paleozoic 40Ar/39Ar ages from the study area, as well as from the Central Tianshan and eastern Southern Tianshan suggest two strong deformational periods at ~390 Ma and ~300 Ma. During the older period, argon isotopic systems were reset/disturbed by high temperature related to arc magmatism resulting from subduction of the South Tianshan paleo-oceanic crust, possibly in combination with reactivation of Precambrian faults. The younger period is characterized by widespread late Carboniferous-early Permian intracontinental deformation, which is related to the final amalgamation of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt. Previously published apatite fission track data attest to a long history of post-collisional cooling, which is attributed to continued propagation of deformation within the Central Asian Orogenic Belt.  相似文献

Thermal Evolution of the Tanlu Fault Zone on the Eastern Margin of the Dabie Mountains and Its Tectonic Implications   总被引：7，自引：3，他引：4

Five samples of muscovite from mylonites of the earlier Tanlu ductile shear zone on the eastern margin of the Dabie Mountains yield 40Ar/39Ar ages ranging from 178 Ma to 196 Ma. Three of them have reliable plateau ages of 188.7±0.7 Ma, 189.7±0.6 Ma and 192.5±0.7 Ma respectively, which indicates a syn-orogenic, sinistral strike-slip thermal event. This displacement movement derived from the continent-continent collision of the North and South China blocks took place in the Early Jurassic and after uplifting of high-pressure to ultrahigh-pressure slabs to the mid-crust. It is suggested that during the collision the Tanlu fault zone was an intracontinental transform fault caused by differential subduction speeds. The 40Ar/39Ar ages of mylonite whole-rock and muscovite from the later Tanlu ductile shear zone suggest another sinistral strike-slip cooling event at 128 Ma. During this strike-slip faulting, large-scale intrusion and doming uplift occurred in the eastern part of the Dabie orogenic belt. Data o  相似文献   

末次冰消期东亚季风区西北缘气候快速变化事件   总被引：9，自引：0，他引：9

通过对中卫剖面和米浪沟湾剖面的年代学与高分辨率气候地层记录的研究,认为末次冰消期东亚季风区西北缘发生气候快速变化事件,它可分辨出古仙女木、波令、老仙女木、阿勒鲁德、IACP和新仙女木等6个气候阶段,并可与格陵兰冰心(GISP2)检出的6个气候阶段相对比。气候快速变化事件以快速变化、不稳定、多波动为特征,表现为冷干-暖湿-冷干-凉湿-暖干-冷干-冷湿的交替变化。冰消期冬、夏季风有较为复杂的消长关系,冰阶时二者互为消长,间冰阶时并不完全互为消长。冬季风在波令和阿勒鲁德暖期较新仙女木冷期强盛,这是北半球高纬度海区海冰面积在暖期缩小、冷期扩大而影响亚洲大陆蒙古一西伯利亚高压暖期增强、冷期减弱的结果;夏季风则与格陵兰冰心δ^18O的变化具有一致性,其强弱与北半球高纬地区有紧密联系,这种联系可能不是通过季风锋面降水带建立起来的,而可能是海冰面积变化导致厄尔尼诺-南方涛动(ENSO)爆发造成的。  相似文献   

4 000aB.P.前后东亚季风变迁与中原周围地区新石器文化的衰落   总被引：23，自引：4，他引：19

4000aB.P.前后中原周围地区新石器文化发生了衰落,其原因一直存在较大的争议。文章依据前人的研究成果,从东亚夏季风锋面降水的穿时性特点初步探讨了这一问题。认为4000aB.P.前后的降温和由地球轨道因素变化引起的全新世东亚季风的长期变化,使东亚夏季风降雨带北撤南迁,形成中国东亚季风区的一种南涝北旱的环境格局,可能是4000aB.P.前后中原周围地区新石器文化的衰落的主要原因。  相似文献
