摘要:

同震位移作为量化地震破裂特征的基本参数, 可为探究断裂活动机制和预测未来地震危险性提供重要的约束条件。尽管大地测量技术能够快速刻画地震在时空上的破裂特征, 然而详细的野外实地调查与测量仍然是获得可靠同震位移和提取弥散变形特征最有效的方法。文中以2021年青海玛多 MW7.4 地震为例, 基于无人机正射影像, 对破裂带进行了详细的解译, 并结合国外震例的研究结果探讨了走滑地震的弥散变形特征及其意义。玛多地震的发震断裂为左旋走滑性质的昆仑山口-江错断裂的东南段, 其地表破裂带在西段整体沿山前或山麓地带展布, 主要是由挤压鼓包、 张剪裂缝和断层陡坎等沿近EW向雁列组合而成的左旋剪切破裂带。结合震前卫星影像, 对该破裂带西段较大位移点的鄂陵湖南侧断错车轮印迹线进行了震前和震后的精细填绘与对比分析。结果表明, 该段同震变形在主破裂带南侧存在弥散变形现象, 重新恢复获得的总左旋位移量约为3.6m, 其中主变形位移量约为2.7m, 弥散变形量约为0.9m, 占主变形位移量的33%。综合分析后认为, 弥散变形在走滑型同震破裂带上可能普遍存在, 而且往往具有不对称性。新的研究结果指示, 在走滑断层的滑动速率研究中, 观测点应尽量选在几何结构简单的区段, 从而减少弥散变形的影响。

Abstract:

The coseismic displacements are required to characterize the earthquake rupture and provide basic data for exploring the faulting mechanism and assessing seismic risk in the future. Detailed field investigation is still an important way to acquire reliable coseismic displacements comparing to geodetic measurements. Combining with previous research on other earthquakes, this study tries to discuss distributed deformation along the strike rupture and its implications. The MW7.4 Madoi earthquake ruptured the southeast section of the Kunlun Shankou-Jiangcuo Fault on May 22, 2021, in Qinghai Province. It is a typical strike slip event, and its epicenter locates at~70km south of the East Kunlun Fault, which is the north boundary of the Bayan Har block. Field investigation results show that the surface rupture extends along the piedmont. The deformation features mainly include compression humps, extensional and shear fissures, and scarps. After the earthquake, we used the unmanned aerial system to survey the rupture zone by capturing a swath of images along the strike. The swath is larger than 1km in width. Then we processed the aerial images by commercial software to build the orthoimage and the digital elevation model(DEM)with high resolutions of 3~5cm. We mapped the surface rupture in detail based on drone images and DEM along the western section. Meanwhile, we also got the commercial satellite images captured before the earthquake, on 2nd January 2021. The images were processed with geometrical rectification before comparison. The spatial resolution of satellite images before earthquake is about 0.5m.
At the south of the Eling Hu(Lake), the clear offset tire tracks provide an excellent marker for displacement measurement. We located the positions of tracks precisely based on remote sensing images, and compared between the tracks lines after earthquake and the corresponding positions before earthquake, then extracted distance difference, which is defined as coseismic displacements. The results show that the total displacement is about 3.6m, which contains the distributed deformation of about 0.9m. The off-fault deformation is about 33% of the on-fault and about 25% of the total deformation. The ratios are similar to previous studies on earthquake worldwide. The fault zone width is probable about 200m. The total horizontal displacement measured by this study is similar to the slip in depth by InSAR inversion, which implies that there is no slip deficit at the west rupture section of the earthquake.
The results also present the asymmetry of distributed deformation that most distributed deformation occurs at the south of the surface rupture zone. Comparing with other earthquakes in the world, it is likely that the asymmetrically distributed deformation is common in strike-slip earthquakes and the asymmetric feature is not related to the property of the material. The characteristics of distributed deformation might be related to fault geometry at depth or local stress state. More work is needed to resolve this question in the future. This study implies that we probably underestimated the slip rates resulting from ignoring distributed deformation in the past. In order to avoid underestimation of slip rates, we can correct the previous results by the ratio of distributed deformation to total slip. It is also suggested that the study sites should be on the segment with narrow deformation and simple geometry.
