Abstract: Longhai—Zhangpu coastal region lies in the so-called Golden Triangle area of southern Fujian Province. Tectonically,it is located on the southern segment of the Changle-Zhaoan fault zone,being one of the regions of Tertiary and Quaternary basaltic eruptions in southeast coastal area of China. In this area there exist the Longhai Liuhui-Zhangpu Jiangjun'ao and Longhai Gangwei-Zhangpu Huxi faults,along which occurred basaltic eruption. The faults have been significantly active since Quaternary,and several small to moderate earthquakes occurred on the faults. In this paper,the basic characteristics of late Quaternary activities and the combination relation of the faults are discussed on the basis of the analysis of along-fault basaltic eruption during late Tertiary to late Pleistocene,as well as the differential variation of geomorphic surfaces and marine deposits on both sides of the faults. The results show that the Longhai Liuhui-Zhangpu Jiangjun'ao fault is a late Pleistocene active fault. During late Tertiary to late Pleistocene,three periods of basaltic eruptions had occurred along the fault,among which the first period occurred in Pliocene to early Pleistocene,the second period in middle Pleistocene and the third period in late Pleistocene. The Longhai Gangwei-Zhangpu Huxi fault can also be assigned to late Pleistocene active fault. The elevation rate of the downthrown side of the fault is estimated to be 1.11 mm/yr. These two faults have dissected the area into the Gangwei graben,south Taiwushan horst and the graben in the sea area to the east of Liuhui-Jiangjun'ao.

摘要： 文中通过福建龙海—漳浦沿海主要断裂的玄武岩喷发,断裂两侧第四纪以来形成的地貌面和海相地层的差异性变化等特点,分析了断裂晚第四纪以来的活动特征及断裂构造的组合特征。研究结果表明:龙海流会-漳浦将军澳断裂在新近纪—第四纪晚更新世早期(N₂—Q_p³)有玄武岩多次循其喷发,晚更新世(Q_p³)活动明显,属晚更新世活动断裂;龙海港尾-漳浦湖西断裂亦属晚更新世(Q_p³)活动断裂,断裂下盘上升速率为1.11mm/a。这2条断裂将本区切割形成港尾地堑、南太武山地垒、流会-将军澳以东海域地堑。
