Summary. The ECORS project was launched in 1983 with the aim of studying fundamental mechanisms of geodynamics in France. The ECORS deep seismic profiles have concentrated on a few structures of major significance: outer zone of the Variscan orogen in northern France, the basin formed during the Bay of Biscay's opening and transects of recent orogenic ranges (Pyrenees and Alps). The seismic profiles have been carried out with all the available modern techniques of industry and completed wherever possible by additional geophysical surveys (magnetism, gravity, MT, wide-angle and refraction seismics) and geological surveys. The first results already shed new light on major geodynamic phenomena such as variations in the frontal Variscan detachment, lower crust formation, crustal behaviour during orogenesis and variations in the formation of cratonic basins. 相似文献

Summary. Seismic probing of the upper crust in a catazonal massif in Tras os Montes, Hercynian Iberia, demonstrates the absence of a root towards the lower crust and favours a mechanism of thrust and nappe emplacement. Similar high to low velocity successions in the upper crust are evidenced in particular segments of the Hercynian domain of France. All these occurrences are related to a type region to which a particular meaning has been given in a recent plate tectonics interpretation of the Hercynian orogenesis. This model, implying large-scale nappe displacement and intracrustal thrusts furnishes in turn a general mechanism for the tectonic formation of upper crustal high and low velocity layers of limited extent in orogenic cycles. 相似文献

In this paper we expand over the whole of central Greece, the Moho map centered on the Gulf of Corinth from tomographic inversion of PmP traveltime profile data recorded by several tens of temporary stations. Our approach is based on Pn, Moho refracted waves, from a large regional earthquake recorded by both temporary stations and the permanent Hellenic network. The Moho map shows the large Moho depth under the Hellenides belt. It also highlights the shallower Moho domain towards the Aegean Sea south and east of the Corinth Gulf. The domain of shallow Moho is limited along a NE–SW prolongation ahead of the North Anatolian Fault, from the North Aegean Trough to the western tip of the Gulf of Corinth towards the Gulf of Patras. The Pn time-terms provide corrections for the permanent stations that can be used together with the 1D velocity–depth model for a first-order compensation of lateral heterogeneity and contribute to the accurate and fast location of earthquake hypocenters. As a test we relocated the 1995 Aigion earthquake in this way, using only the sparse data of the permanent stations. Hypocentral coordinates then shift close to those derived by a dedicated dense array deployed after the earthquake, implying improvement of the routine location. 相似文献

The Gulf of Corinth is a natural laboratory for the study of seismicity and crustal deformation during continental extension. Seismic profiling along its axis provides a 24-fold normal-incidence seismic reflection profile and wide-angle reflection–refraction profiles recorded by sea-bottom seismometers (OBS) and land seismometers. At wide-angle incidence, the land receivers document the Moho at 40-km depth under the western end of the Gulf north of Aigion, rising to 32-km depth under the northern coast in the east of the Gulf. Both refraction and normal-incidence reflection sections image the basement under the deep marine basin that has formed by recent extension. The depth to the base of the sedimentary basin beneath the Gulf, constrained by both methods, is no more than 2.7 km, with 1 km of water underlain by no more than 1.7 km of sediment, less than what was expected from past modeling of uplift of the south coast in the East of the Gulf. Unlike the flat sea-bottom, the basement and sedimentary interfaces show topography along this axial line. Several deeps are identified as depocenters, which suggest that this axial line is not a strike line to the basin. It appears instead to be controlled by several faults, oblique to the S60°E overall trend of the south coast of the Gulf, their more easterly strikes being consistent with the instantaneous direction of extension measured by earthquake slip vectors and by GPS. 相似文献

The dynamic evolution of the Pyrenees is discussed in the light of geophysical data. Recent deep seismic sounding have revealed the crustal structure of the Pyrenees which is used to test the different evolutionary models proposed until now.The crustal thickness of the Paleozoic Axial Zone (PAZ) and the North Pyrenean Zone (NPZ) differ by more than 10 km, ranging from about 30 km in the NPZ to 40–50 km in the PAZ. The transition from PAZ to the NPZ, identified at the surface as the North Pyrenean Fault (NPF), is sharp at depth and marked by a vertical step, at least in the eastern half of the range. The NPZ is characterized by additional throws and dips of the Moho in the east whereas in the west a heterogeneous middle to lower crust is encountered, with high velocity anomalies. The seismic results suggest that the PAZ and the NPZ belong to different plates, the NPF being the plate boundary. These results are inconsistent with evolutionary models involving lithospheric subduction or crustal doubling and intracratonic rifting with the main tectonic lineations following NNE-SSW directions. They rather suggest that after a period of extension, two main orogenic events took place: a phase involving shearing and thinning which affected mainly the present-day NPZ and a later compressive phase which explains the building up of the chain, the thickening of the crust and the enhancement of a pre-existing difference in crustal thickness between the European and Iberian plates. 相似文献

Seismic studies of the last ten years in the Pyrenees (deep seismic profiles, fan profiles at critical distance, teleseismic travel-time residuals, seismicity from temporary networks) and their most significant results concerning crustal thickness in the different structural units of the range, sharpness of the transition between these units at depth, and east-west lateral evolution are reviewed in this paper. Focal mechanisms for three recent earthquakes ofM4 are given, and connections of local seismicity with major tectonic structures such as the North Pyrenean Fault and its western prolongation at depth are described. 相似文献

The Aegean Sea is a broad area of submerged continental crust undergoing active extension to varying degrees. A combined near-normal incidence and wide-angle seismic recording programme was conducted in the western Aegean Sea in 1993, with the principal objective of testing the popular hypothesis that lower crustal deformation (particularily extension) is expressed as a seismically “layered lower crust” (LLC). Across the southern margin of the Cretan trough (i.e. North Cretan offshore margin), a LLC was indicated by wide-angle arrivals that was not apparent on either the coincident near-normal-in-cidence profile or on older low-frequency refraction records. North of the northern margin of the Cretan Trough, beneath the Cyclades, a domain of strong reflectivity is recorded from the middle to lower crust. Here, the near-normal incidence sections also show this typical LLC reflectivity. On the wide-angle sections, a distinct interface is suggested in addition, at a larger depth than that previously assumed for the Moho discontinuity. The structural images and interpretations derived from the new seismic data so far do not clearly support either a pure-shear crustal stretching or an asymmetric simple-shear extension model for the Aegean Sea. Our results appear to be consistent with a tectonic model, where middle crust mobilised by flow coincides spatially with upper crust that has been thinned by active extension of an orogenically thickened crust and expressed near the surface as an exhumed metamorphic core complex. 相似文献
