备注

基于已有的地壳三维速度结构,结合福建—台湾地区的地貌和构造特征,分析了地壳三维速度结构与该区域构造的关系。结果 显示:(1)浅层的速度结构与该区的地貌、地形及地质特征有较好的对应关系,福建主要的地热区漳州盆地和福州盆地都呈现明显的低速异常,尤其是漳州盆地的低速异常一直延伸到较深的深度;(2)福建地区的地壳运动、断裂活动和地震活动存在明显的南北差异,与地壳速度结构分布对应关系较好,南部的中上地壳呈现低速而北部中上地壳呈现高速;(3)在一些大型活动断裂带的两侧存在明显的速度结构差异,如在福建构造活动最为强烈的滨海断裂带两侧在15 km深度的速度结构剖面上显现明显的差异,这也解释了福建地区地震活动的震源深度大多位于15 km之上的现象;(4)台湾地区的大多数强震一般发生在板块碰撞或俯冲的高速带上,并形成明显的贝里奥夫带,台湾地区的强震活动与该地区的复杂的板块结构及其运动密切相关。

Basing on the crustal 3D velocity structure,we combined with the geomorphology and tectonic structures in Fujian-Taiwan region to analyze the relationship between the crustal 3D velocity structure and tectonic in this area. The results show that:(1)The velocity structure in shallow crust has the good consistence with the geomorphology,topography and geological characteristics in this area. The low velocity anomalies obviously locate at the areas with high geothermal flow,such as the Zhangzhou and the Fuzhou Basins,especially the low velocity anomalies near the Zhangzhou Basin extend to deep depth.(2)There are significant differences in crustal movements,fault activities and seismic activities between the south and the north parts of Fujian province,which is corresponding with the crustal velocity structure. The tomography result shows that the seismic velocity in upper and middle crust in the south part of Fujian is much lower than that in the north.(3)The velocity structures are significant different across some big active faults. For example,there exits the significant difference at the depth of 15 km between the two sides of the Coast Fault Belt whose tectonic activity is the most intense in Fujian,which may explain that the epicenter depth of most earthquakes in Fujian province are shallower than 15 km.(4)The most strong earthquakes in Taiwan region are concentrated at the high velocity anomalies belt in the plate collision or subduction belts,which forms obvious Benioff zone,so the activity of strong earthquakes may tightly be relate to the complex plate structure and movement in Taiwan.
