This paper presents results of the first attempt to date a normal fault system that affected the eastern side of the Alpine Corsica (France). The U–Pb method was employed to date carbonate material with associated As–Sb mineralization in the Matra Fault, a N–S striking normal fault located southward of the Castagniccia dome. This fault cuts the Alpine nappe stack, here consisting of two oceanic-derived tectonic units, including Middle–Late Jurassic metaophiolites and/or related Early Cretaceous metasediments. From the Late Cretaceous onward, these units were involved in subduction processes and record peak eclogite facies metamorphism. After a complex exhumation path to the surface, these units then experienced long-lasting extensional tectonics linked to the collapse of the Alpine wedge, followed by two rifting stages. The first rifting stage occurred in the Oligocene-Early Miocene and the second in the Middle Miocene to Quaternary that caused the opening of the Liguro–Provencal and the Tyrrhenian back-arc basins, respectively. The U–Pb dating of the Matra Fault yields a weighted age of 9.80 ± 0.37 Ma. Therefore, the Matra Fault developed, in association with syndeformational As–Sb–Fe sulfide mineralization, during the opening of the Tyrrhenian back-arc basin. This finding represents a significant advance in understanding the extensional tectonics in Corsica during the opening of the Tyrrhenian back-arc basin.
本文介绍了首次尝试确定影响阿尔卑斯科西嘉(法国)东侧的正常断层系统的日期的结果。采用U-Pb法测定了位于Castagniccia穹顶南侧的正断层Matra断裂中伴生As-Sb矿化的碳酸盐物质的年龄。该断裂切断了阿尔卑斯推覆体,这里由两个海洋衍生的构造单元组成,包括中晚侏罗世变质绿岩和/或相关的早白垩世变质沉积层。晚白垩世以来,这些单元参与了俯冲作用,并记录了榴辉岩相变质高峰。经过复杂的挖掘路径到达地表后,这些单元经历了与阿尔卑斯楔体崩塌有关的长期伸展构造,随后是两个裂谷阶段。第一次裂谷期发生在渐新世—早中新世,第二次裂谷期发生在中中新世—第四纪,分别形成了利古罗—普罗旺斯和第勒尼安弧后盆地。Matra断裂U-Pb定年的加权年龄为9.80 ± 0.37 Ma。因此,在第勒尼期弧后盆地张开期间,Matra断裂发育,并伴有同变形的As-Sb-Fe硫化物成矿作用。这一发现对认识第勒尼安弧后盆地打开时期科西嘉地区的伸展构造具有重要意义。

The Northern Dobrogea Orogen is the onshore segment of the southeastern termination of the Trans-European Suture Zone, the most prominent tectonic boundary of Europe, and was affected by multiple superposed deformation episodes in the Paleozoic and Mesozoic. Contrary to the widely held notion that the North Dobrogea Orogen has experienced only very mild and local deformation since the mid-Cretaceous, our (U-Th)/He analyses on apatites from Precambrian, Paleozoic, and Triassic basement and cover rocks indicate a well-defined and widespread episode of cooling/exhumation starting in the late Miocene. The high level of data coherence and the fact that all tectonic units of North Dobrogea have been affected by such episode warrants a geological explanation of supra-regional extent. Miocene cooling/exhumation in Dobrogea can be placed in a larger framework of coeval intraplate compressional deformation affecting a wide area ranging from the Greater Caucasus to the Romanian sector of the Black Sea continental shelf. We propose that the structural inversion of inherited structures in the study area is a distant echo of the Arabia-Eurasia hard collision, which started in the mid-Miocene some 1200 km away to the southeast. Low-temperature thermochronologic data for the area north of the Bitlis-Pütürge suture zone of SE Anatolia indicate that the tectonic stresses related to the Arabian collision were transmitted efficiently in the Eurasian hinterland over large distances, focusing preferentially at rheological discontinuities located as far as the northern shores of the Black Sea. Late Miocene far-field deformation in the hinterland of the Arabia-Eurasia collision zone decreases gradually westward from the rapidly exhuming Greater Caucasus, located in front of the area of maximum indentation, through Crimea, to the Odessa shelf and Dobrogea, where deformation has been significantly less and therefore remained underestimated until now.
北多布罗格造山带是泛欧缝合带东南端的陆上段,是欧洲最突出的构造边界,在古生代和中生代受到多次叠加变形的影响。我们对前寒武纪、古生代和三叠纪基底和盖层磷灰石的(U-Th)/He分析表明,从中新世晚期开始,有一个明确而广泛的冷却/挖掘过程,与人们普遍认为的中白垩纪以来北多布罗格造山带只经历了非常轻微的局部变形的观点相反。高水平的数据一致性和北多布罗格亚所有构造单元都受到这种事件影响的事实,保证了超区域范围的地质解释。Dobrogea中新世冷却/挖掘可以放在一个更大的同时期板内挤压变形的框架中,影响从大高加索到黑海大陆架罗马尼亚部分的广泛地区。我们认为,研究区继承构造的构造反转是阿拉伯-欧亚大陆硬碰撞的一个遥远的回声,该碰撞始于中新世中期,东南约1200 km。安纳托利亚东南部bitlis - p ttrge缝合带以北地区的低温热年代学资料表明,与阿拉伯碰撞有关的构造应力在欧亚腹地长距离有效传递,优先集中在远至黑海北岸的流变不连续面。晚中新世阿拉伯-欧亚碰撞带腹地的远场变形逐渐向西减少,从位于最大压痕区前面的快速发掘的大高加索,穿过克里米亚,到敖德萨陆架和多布罗格亚,那里的变形明显较小,因此直到现在仍被低估。

Active tectonic forces and elements along northwestern Himalayan foreland have been probed through determination of seismic parameters duly substantiated by gravity data analysis. Local broadband waveform data of seven moderate to small size earthquakes recorded by CES and PMD networks was analyzed for resolving focal mechanisms and stress orientation. These predominantly strike-slip seismic events represent NW-SE oriented causative faults while the maximum horizontal stress (SHmax) is oriented in the NNW–SSE direction that mimics the Indo-Eurasian plate convergence. Depicted structure was corroborated through analysis of TOPEX satellite gravity data. Shallow right-lateral strike-slip faults observed in gravity data are consistent with the determined focal mechanism solutions. The residual and regional gravity data validates variation in faulting styles with depth as observed in seismic studies. The predominant shallow strike-slip faulting may be associated with interaction of Himalayan thrust and fold-belt with the Indian flexural forebulge known as Sargodha-Delhi basement ridge. Considering these faults to be R-shears of the western plate boundary, i.e. Chaman fault system may provide an alternate tectonic explanation. Total slip in the area, seems to be occurring partly aseismically along viscous decollement in the Himalayan Front i.e. Salt Range and partly seismically through brittle deformation of the basement ridge.
通过地震参数的确定和重力资料的分析,探讨了喜玛拉雅山西北前陆的活动构造力和构造要素。对7次中小地震的局地宽带波形数据进行了分析,以确定震源机制和应力方向。这些以走滑为主的地震事件代表了北西-东南向的成因断裂,而最大水平应力(SHmax)则是北西-南西向的,模拟了印度-欧亚板块的辐合。通过对TOPEX卫星重力数据的分析,证实了所描绘的结构。重力资料中观测到的浅层右旋走滑断层与确定的震源机制解一致。残差和区域重力数据验证了地震研究中观察到的断层样式随深度的变化。主要的浅层走滑断裂可能与喜马拉雅逆冲褶皱带与印度弯曲前隆起萨戈达-德里基底脊的相互作用有关。考虑到这些断裂是西板块边界的r -剪切,即查满断裂系统可能提供另一种构造解释。该地区的总滑移似乎部分是沿着喜马拉雅前缘即盐岭的粘性滑脱发生的,部分是通过基底脊的脆性变形发生的。

Sub-Moho lithospheric modification beneath the western Deccan Volcanic Province adjoining the Konkan plains: Evidence from Magnetotellurics 毗邻康坎平原的西德干火山省下的亚莫霍岩石圈改造:大地电磁证据

The western continental margin of India consists of significant geomorphological features, namely the Konkan Coastal Plains (KCP), the coast parallel Western Ghat Escarpment (WGE), and the elevated Deccan plateau covered by massive lava flows, a product of mantle plume – lithosphere interaction. The region has also experienced multiple episodes of rifting. As a result, geophysical characterisation of the crust and mantle lithosphere is necessary to better understand the plume-lithosphere interaction process and its impact on the cratonic lithosphere beneath the western Deccan Volcanic Province (DVP). We present the results from 2-D and 3-D inversion of magnetotelluric (MT) data acquired along a 200 km long profile traversing in E-W direction across the KCP and the western Deccan plateau. The results reveal a distinct change in the regional geoelectric strike direction from N-S in the KCP to NW-SE in the Deccan plateau with the WGE forming the boundary between these two regions. The geoelectric model constructed from 2-D inversion of the MT data yields highly resistive fragmented eastward thickening cratonic blocks of the Dharwar Craton, dissected by faults/fracture zones of pre-eruptive times. The 3-D full-impedance tensor inversion shows similar resistive blocks along with a pronounced low electrical conductivity zone beneath the Deccan Plateau. The moderate-to-high conductivity zones underlying the resistive cratonic blocks possibly represent the relics of the interaction between the Indian lithosphere and the Réunion plume, and a zone of volatiles /long lived sulfide fluids due to the effect of residual thermal anomaly. We interpret this feature as an evidence for lithospheric modification through upwelling and decompressional melting of the volatile-enriched mantle. We infer that the persistent dynamic topography of the WGE is due to the presence of such fluids at the sub-Moho depths and uplifting of a low-to-intermediate strength lithosphere.
印度西部大陆边缘具有重要的地貌特征,即康坎海岸平原(KCP)、与海岸平行的西高止悬崖(WGE)和被地幔柱-岩石圈相互作用的大量熔岩流覆盖的德干高原高架。该地区还经历了多次裂谷。因此,地壳和地幔岩石圈的地球物理特征对于更好地理解西德干火山省(DVP)地幔柱-岩石圈相互作用过程及其对克拉通岩石圈的影响是必要的。本文介绍了沿横贯KCP和西德干高原的东西向200 km长剖面获取的大地电磁(MT)数据的二维和三维反演结果。结果表明,区域地电走向由KCP的北向南向德干高原的北西-东南方向发生了明显的变化,西格线形成了这两个区域的边界。利用MT数据的二维反演构建的地电模型得到了Dharwar克拉通的高电阻破碎向东加厚的克拉通块体,这些克拉通块体被喷发前的断层/断裂带所切割。三维全阻抗张量反演显示,在德干高原下方有类似的阻性块体和明显的低电导率带。电阻性克拉通地块下的中至高导电性带可能是印度岩石圈与r地幔柱相互作用的遗迹,也是残余热异常作用下的挥发物/长寿命硫化物流体带。我们将这一特征解释为通过富含挥发物的地幔的上升流和减压熔融对岩石圈进行改造的证据。我们推断,西西盆地持续的动力地形是由于这种流体在亚莫霍深度的存在和低至中等强度岩石圈的隆升。

We present new geochronological, petrological, and geochemical data from the amphibolites of the Salmas metamorphic complex in NW Iran. This region is where the Sanandaj-Sirjan magmatic-metamorphic zone, the Urmia-Dokhtar magmatic arc, and the Eastern Anatolian Plateau converge, creating a complex geodynamic context. The amphibolites alternate with gneisses and metamorphosed limestone layers and appear as enclaves of varying sizes within the gneisses. Fine- to medium-grained amphibole and plagioclase, exhibiting a granoblastic texture, are the dominant minerals, indicating basaltic and diabasic protoliths. The amphiboles show simple foliation along lineation, which is occasionally folded. These amphibolites are overlain by Permian to Jurassic sedimentary rocks and, in some places, by Miocene sediments with angular unconformity. Based on whole-rock geochemistry, the amphibolites have relatively high TiO2 (1.23–2.62 wt%) and low MnO (0.18–0.21 wt%) contents, classifying them as ortho-amphibolites. The parental magma was sub-alkaline basaltic with tholeiitic affinities, formed in a within-plate tectonic setting. This is characterized by enrichment in LREE relative to HREE, a lack of Nb, Ta, and Ti anomalies, and the presence of negative Eu and positive Ba anomalies. The ɛHf(t) and 176Hf/177Hf ratios of dated zircons suggest a depleted mantle to lower crust origin for the parental magma of the amphibolites. U-Pb dating of zircon grains yields a mean age of 304.8 Ma, corresponding to Late Carboniferous-Early Permian magmatism related to the opening of the Neotethys Ocean. The thermal effects of Late Cretaceous to Early Cenozoic subduction-related magmatic events are recorded by overgrown metamorphic zircon around original magmatic grains.
我们提出了伊朗西北部萨尔马斯变质杂岩的角闪岩的新的年代学,岩石学和地球化学数据。该地区是Sanandaj-Sirjan岩浆变质带、ur米亚- dokhtar岩浆弧和东安纳托利亚高原交汇的地方,形成了复杂的地球动力学背景。角闪岩与片麻岩和变质灰岩层交替存在,在片麻岩中形成大小不等的飞地。细粒至中粒角闪石和斜长石是主要矿物,呈花岗母粒结构,指示玄武岩和辉绿岩原岩。角闪石沿线理呈简单的片理,偶有褶皱。这些角闪岩被二叠纪至侏罗纪沉积岩覆盖,在某些地方,还被角不整合的中新世沉积岩覆盖。全岩地球化学特征表明,该角闪岩TiO2含量较高(1.23 ~ 2.62 wt%), MnO含量较低(0.18 ~ 0.21 wt%),属于正长角闪岩。母岩浆为亚碱性玄武岩,具有拉斑岩的亲缘关系,形成于板块内构造环境。其特征是LREE相对于HREE富集,缺乏Nb、Ta和Ti异常,存在负Eu和正Ba异常。年代锆石的Hf(t)比值和176Hf/177Hf比值表明角闪岩母岩浆的成因为幔-下地壳枯竭。锆石U-Pb测年结果显示,锆石的平均年龄为304.8 Ma,对应于晚石炭世-早二叠世岩浆活动,与新特提斯洋的打开有关。晚白垩世至早新生代与俯冲有关的岩浆事件的热效应被原始岩浆颗粒周围生长的变质锆石所记录。

The Frontal Cordillera in the Central Andes of northern Chile is a basement-involved fold-and-thrust belt characterized by large ranges composed of Paleozoic crystalline rocks, and intermontane contractional basins that have recorded much of the Mesozoic to Cenozoic deformation history of the orogen. At the core of the Frontal Cordillera, along the transition zone between the normal and flat-slab subduction segments, the Varillar Basin serves as a natural laboratory for studying the styles and mechanisms of basement-involved deformation resulting from Andean orogenesis. In this study, we present a novel structural analysis of the basement-involved structures present in this basin by combining field and seismic data with balanced and restored cross-sections. On the surface, the dominant structural features include NNE-striking basement-cored anticlines associated with steeply east and west-dipping reverse faults. These faults uplifted and exhumed large Paleozoic blocks, which are interpreted to be the pre-rift basement for Late Permian to Jurassic rift-related basins. The available seismic line revealed the existence of partially inverted half-graben structures beneath the basin, suggesting that the tectonic inversion of preexisting normal faults is responsible for the basement-involved deformation. This is further evidenced by the occurrence of folded Triassic and Jurassic syn-rift strata, which have been partially expelled from their original depocenters and are now elevated nearly 3 km above their regional datum. Restoration of three cross-sections to their pre-shortening state indicates that steeply dipping reverse faults (e.g., Varillar and Cerro Guerrita faults) accommodated approximately 3 km of crustal shortening on average. Some of these faults have also truncated and overthrust inverted normal faults (e.g., Border Fault), resulting in complex structural arrays. While the exact timing of basement-involved deformation remains uncertain, previous K-Ar age determinations of synorogenic strata suggest that the contractional structures were active during the Paleocene. However, other previously reported low-temperature thermochronological data (apatite fission track) from surrounding areas indicate an Eocene age for the basement-involved tectonism of the Frontal Cordillera.
智利北部安第斯山脉中部的锋面科迪勒拉是一个基底卷入的褶皱冲断带,其特征是由古生代大范围结晶岩和山间收缩盆地组成,记录了造山带中生代至新生代的大部分变形历史。Varillar盆地位于前缘科迪勒拉的核心,位于正常和平板俯冲段之间的过渡地带,是研究安第斯造山作用导致的基底变形样式和机制的天然实验室。在这项研究中,我们通过结合野外和地震资料以及平衡和恢复的截面,对该盆地存在的基底相关构造进行了新的结构分析。在地表上,主要的构造特征是北北东向基底核背斜,并伴有陡峭的东、西倾逆断层。这些断裂隆升并挖出了古生代大块块体,被解释为晚二叠世至侏罗纪裂谷相关盆地的裂陷前基底。现有地震线显示,盆地下方存在部分倒转的半地堑构造,表明原有正断层的构造倒转是基底变形的主要原因。褶皱的三叠纪和侏罗纪同裂谷地层的出现进一步证明了这一点,这些地层已部分从其原始沉积中心排出,现在比其区域基准面高出近3 km。3条断面恢复到缩短前状态,表明陡倾逆断层(如Varillar断裂和Cerro Guerrita断裂)平均可使地壳缩短约3 km。其中一些断层还具有截断逆冲逆正断层(如边界断层),形成复杂的构造阵列。虽然与基底有关的变形的确切时间仍不确定,但先前对同造地层的K-Ar年龄测定表明,收缩构造在古新世期间活跃。然而,其他先前报道的来自周围地区的低温热年代学数据(磷灰石裂变径迹)表明,前缘科迪勒拉的基底构造活动发生在始新世。

Within orogenic belts, large thrust sheets commonly present a crystalline nature. Their thickness represents a significant portion of the total crust section and they are displaced along several tens of km or more. Due to their size and particular rheological properties, strain decoupling is expected to occur between these crystalline thrust sheets and the footwall units. In this work we characterize the structure of the Alboran crystalline thrust sheet (ATS), which forms the inner core of the Western Gibraltar Arc, a Neogene collisional arc that close the Mediterranean alpine belt to the west. In this setting, we explore the modes of strain partitioning occurring during thrusting both within the ATS and across the mountain front through the underlying units. This allows us to evaluate, within the geodynamic frame of the Western Mediterranean, the contribution of the ATS kinematics in the shaping of the entire Western Gibraltar Arc. Our results point out that the main structure of the ATS in its western part is a large-scale frontal culmination wall developed over a 25 km wide hanging wall ramp. Above this ramp, the rock column (nowadays up to 11–12 km thick) is affected by ca. N-S accommodation folds, mostly vergent to the west, which are likely produced by thrust-parallel simple shear. The inferred tectonic transport direction (nearly E-W) is parallel to those of the neighbouring fold-and-thrust belt units in the western front of the ATS but significantly differs from those in the northern boundary (>20º), suggesting a transpressive regime developed in the lateral parts of the thrust sheet. Moreover, strong evidence of fold-axis parallel extension is recorded within the ATS and in the underlying units. This likely indicates the deformation within the ATS was pure shear dominated and strongly partitioned, producing a large-scale thrust at its base (localized simple shear) coupled with vertical flattening and arc-parallel stretching evenly distributed within the hanging wall. We interpret this generalized extension along the orogenic grain, identified from the fold-and-thrust belt to the inner orogenic core, as kinematically linked to the outward fanning pattern of the tectonic transport directions around the Western Gibraltar Arc and in agreement with the progressive nature of the orogenic curvature. Our results highlight that the kinematics of the Western Gibraltar Arc is largely independent of the Europa-Africa convergence, and agree well with the proposed models of westward retreat –and associated slab tearing- followed by collision in the westernmost Mediterranean.
在造山带内,大型逆冲片通常呈现结晶性质。它们的厚度占地壳总剖面的很大一部分,它们沿着几十公里或更多的方向位移。由于它们的尺寸和特殊的流变特性,预计在这些晶体推力片和下盘单元之间会发生应变解耦。在这项工作中,我们描述了Alboran结晶逆冲片(ATS)的结构,它形成了西直布罗陀弧的内核,这是一个新近纪的碰撞弧,靠近地中海的西部高山带。在这种情况下,我们探索了在ATS内部和通过底层单元穿过山前的逆冲过程中发生的应变分配模式。这使我们能够在西地中海的地球动力学框架内评价ATS运动学对整个西直布罗陀弧线形成的贡献。研究结果表明,ATS西段的主要构造是在25 km宽的上盘斜坡上发育的大型锋面高潮壁面。在此斜坡之上,岩柱(现今厚达11-12 km)受约N-S的调节褶皱影响,大部分向西倾斜,可能是逆冲平行的简单剪切作用。推断的构造输运方向(近东西向)与ATS西前缘邻近的褶皱冲断带单元平行,但与北部边界(>20º)的构造输运方向明显不同,表明逆冲片的侧向发育逆压机制。此外,在ATS和底层单元中记录了折叠轴平行扩展的有力证据。这可能表明ATS内部的变形以纯剪切为主,分区强烈,在其底部产生大规模的逆冲(局部简单剪切),并在上盘内均匀分布垂直压平和弧平行拉伸。我们将这种从褶皱冲断带到内造山心的沿造山带的广义伸展解释为与西直布罗陀弧周围构造运输方向的向外扇形模式有运动学联系,并与造山带曲率的递进性质相一致。我们的研究结果强调,西直布罗陀弧的运动学在很大程度上独立于欧罗巴-非洲辐合,并且与所提出的向西撤退-以及相关的板块撕裂-随后在地中海最西端发生碰撞的模型非常吻合。

The North Tabriz Fault (NTF) is a major regional fault traversing northwestern Iran. It persists through the Turkish-Iranian plateau crossing the central part of the Iranian-Azerbaijan region. This fault has paleo-seismological history, and has been responsible for many devastating earthquakes, which in historical times have destroyed the city of Tabriz at least twelve times. The NTF is a WNW–ESE trending strike-slip fault but also includes a thrusting component that runs for more than 100 km between the Khoy-Siyah Cheshme- Gaylato fault and the Zanjan fault systems. In this research, seismicity, remote sensing, and field data available for the NTF are studied. Specifically, the stress phases for the three main segments of this fault (Northern, Middle, and Southeast) are analyzed and their hazard potential is established. Numerous horsetail structures, generated by compression resulting from dextral offset movements along the faults, exist in the Misho and Shibly mountain ranges. The phases of the stress relating to the NTF segments are analyzed by the direct inversion stress-separation (Angelier method). That analysis, together with fault movement potential analysis, reveals that the southeast segment of the NTF has the highest potential to generate displacement, suggesting that this fault segment poses the highest risk for future large-scale earthquakes. Moreover, analysis of recent seismicity along the fault, including major earthquake events of 2023 in Southeast Turkey identify a gap in seismicity along part of the NTF, suggesting that future earthquakes should be expected in that region.
北大不里士断层(NTF)是一条穿越伊朗西北部的主要区域性断层。它持续穿过土耳其-伊朗高原,穿过伊朗-阿塞拜疆地区的中部。这个断层有古地震学的历史,是多次破坏性地震的原因,在历史上,大不里士市至少被摧毁了12次。NTF是一个WNW-ESE走向的走滑断层,但也包括一个在Khoy-Siyah Cheshme- Gaylato断层和Zanjan断层系统之间运行超过100 公里的逆冲成分。在这项研究中,研究了NTF的地震活动性、遥感和现场数据。具体来说,分析了该断层的北、中、东南三个主要断层段的应力相,并确定了它们的危险性。在米绍山脉和Shibly山脉中存在着大量的马尾构造,它们是由沿断层的右向偏移运动造成的压缩而形成的。采用直接反演应力分离法(Angelier法)分析了NTF段的应力相。该分析与断层运动潜力分析表明,NTF的东南段具有最大的位移潜力,表明该断层段未来发生大地震的风险最高。此外,对断层沿线近期地震活动的分析,包括2023年土耳其东南部的大地震事件,发现NTF部分地区的地震活动存在空白,这表明该地区未来可能会发生地震。

The Ecuador and Andean Cordillera in South America are highly vulnerable to hazard-ous events. Despite this, the geometry of the subduction plate in Ecuador has rarely been studied using the gravimetric method, a remarkable tool used to understand geological structures. In this study, a gravimetric model of the subduction zone at the western boundary of Ecuador was created using the European-enhanced gravity model of the Earth and the seismic catalog of Ecuador. A workflow was enforced using terrain corrections, the radial power spectrum, and Euler deconvolution to determine the regional and residual gravimetric components and depth of the gravimetric sources. Seafloor morphological structures were then incorporated into the model construction, including the Carnegie Ridge, fracture of Grijalva, and other elements that split the Nazca and Farallon Plates. Additionally, existing faults in the continental plate were considered, mainly the Dolores-Guayaquil system fault that separates the North Andean and South American Blocks. The models were directly constructed from gravimetric anomalies and calibrated using seismic hypocenters. The root mean square error of the current models exhibited a small offset, indicating a good fit between the processed gravimetric data and the theoretical response of the constructed model. The results were described for two sections along latitudes 1°S and 3°S, indicating that the geometric variations in the subduction plate were caused by heterogeneous physiographic elements in the oceanic crust or by a prior subduction area of the Farallon Plate.
南美洲的厄瓜多尔和安第斯山脉极易受到危险事件的影响。尽管如此,厄瓜多尔俯冲板块的几何结构很少使用重力法进行研究,而重力法是一种用于了解地质结构的重要工具。本文利用欧洲增强地球重力模型和厄瓜多尔地震目录,建立了厄瓜多尔西部边界俯冲带的重力模型。利用地形校正、径向功率谱和欧拉反褶积来确定区域和残余重力分量以及重力源的深度,实施了一个工作流程。然后,海底形态结构被纳入模型构建,包括卡内基山脊、格里哈尔瓦断裂,以及其他分裂纳斯卡板块和法拉龙板块的因素。此外,还考虑了大陆板块现有的断裂,主要是分隔北安第斯地块和南美地块的多洛雷斯-瓜亚基尔体系断裂。这些模型是直接根据重力异常构建的,并使用震源进行校准。现有模型的均方根误差偏移较小,表明处理后的重力数据与模型的理论响应拟合较好。结果表明,沿纬度1°S和3°S的两个剖面,俯冲板块的几何变化是由洋壳的非均匀物理因素或法拉龙板块的先俯冲区引起的。
