High resolution upper crustal velocity and seismogenic structure of the Huoshan “seismic window” in the Dabie orogenic belt

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Huoshan “seismic window” is located in the northern margin of the Dabie Orogen belt, the contact zone between North China and the Yangtze plate, where the seismic activity is mainly concentrated in this area.

Assessing infrequent large earthquakes using geomorphology and geodesy in the Malawi Rift [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In regions with large, mature fault systems, a characteristic earthquake model may be more appropriate for modelling earthquake occurrence than extrapolating from a short history of small, instrumentally observed earthquakes using the Gutenberg–Richter ...

永清MS4.3地震和廊坊MS3.0地震的发震构造研究

open access: yesDizhen xuebao, 2020
基于首都圈数字地震台网的宽频带资料,首先采用CAP方法确定了永清MS4.3地震和廊坊MS3.0地震的震源机制解:永清地震节面Ⅰ的走向、倾角和滑动角分别为52°,62°和−140°,节面Ⅱ的走向、倾角和滑动角分别为300°,55°和−35°;廊坊地震节面I的走向、倾角和滑动角分别为48°,57°和−147°,节面Ⅱ的走向、倾角和滑动角分别为299°,63°和−38°。两次地震的震源机制解较为一致,推测它们可能具有相同的发震断层。利用近震转换波获得两次地震的震源深度,分别为19 km和13 km ...

Seismogenic structures and spatiotemporal seismicity patterns of the 2022 Ms6.0 Maerkang earthquake sequence, Sichuan, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The 2022 Ms6.0 Maerkang earthquake sequence, Sichuan, China, occurred in an unexpected area with historically rare seismicity in the Bayan Har block. Here we relocated the earthquake sequence, inverted for the focal mechanisms of the larger events, and ...

Deep lithospheric structures along the southern central Chile Margin from wide-angle P-wave modellilng [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Crustal- and upper-mantle structures of the subduction zone in south central Chile, between 42 degrees S and 46 degrees S, are determined from seismic wide-angle reflection and refraction data, using the seismic ray tracing method to calculate minimum ...

Crustal Seismogenic Thickness and Thermal Structure of NW South America

open access: yes, 2022
Abstract. The crustal seismogenic thickness (CST) has direct implications on the magnitude and occurrence of crustal earthquakes, and therefore, on the seismic hazard of any region. Amongst other factors, the seismogenesis of rocks is affected by in-situ conditions (temperature and state of stress) and by the rocks’ heterogeneous composition.

Thermal structure and megathrust seismogenic potential of the Makran subduction zone [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2013
The Makran subduction zone experienced a tsunamigenic Mw 8.1 earthquake in 1945 and recent, smaller earthquakes also suggest seismicity on the megathrust; however, its historical record is limited and hazard potential enigmatic. We have developed a 2‐D thermal model of the subduction zone.

川滇地区地壳密度变化与强震孕育关系

open access: yesDizhen xuebao, 2019
为研究川滇地区地壳密度的时空演化特征与强震孕育的关系,本文基于2011—2014年川滇地区的重力复测资料,利用阻尼最小二乘反演算法,获得了川滇地区0—50 km深度范围内分辨率为55 km×55 km×10 km (长×宽×高)的三维动态密度变化模型。以所获取的动态密度变化为依据,分析了川滇地区三维密度变化特征与2013年四川芦山MS7.0、2014年云南鲁甸MS6.5和四川康定MS6.3地震的关系,并由此对强震重点构造部位的深部地壳结构特征、孕震背景及区域动力学过程进行了深入分析。结果显示 ...
