摘要:

自中生代以来,中国大陆东南缘经历了复杂的构造演化过程,尤其是晚中生代发生了剧烈的岩浆活动。研究该区域下方的地壳厚度和泊松比,有助于增进对壳幔相互作用及其动力学过程的理解。本文利用中国大陆东南缘90个固定地震台站(包括88个福建台站和2个中国台湾台站)的远震数据,使用P波接收函数H-κ叠加方法,获得了台站下方附近的地壳厚度和平均泊松比,并结合前人的流动观测结果,给出了高分辨率的地壳厚度和泊松比分布图像。结果表明:研究区地壳厚度为28.0~34.1 km,平均厚度31.0 km;地壳泊松比变化范围为0.22~0.29,平均值为0.26。区内莫霍面变化较为平缓,整体表现为由内陆向沿海减薄,局部地区存在一定的起伏,部分断裂带两侧差异显著。中国大陆东南缘的沿海地区不属于陆壳和洋壳的过渡区,其属性主要为减薄型的陆壳区。福安—南靖断裂带为该区域内一条极为重要的断裂带,其东侧沿海地区的泊松比与地壳厚度呈正相关,而西侧为负相关,东侧地区泊松比整体上高于西侧的内陆地区,可能与沿海地区晚中生代岩浆底侵作用及壳内低速薄层发育有关。

Abstract:

The continental margin of southeastern China has undergone complex tectonic evolution since the Mesozoic, especially during the Late Mesozoic under intense magmatic activities. Here, we determine the crustal thickness and the average Poisson’s ratio for crust to better understand crust-mantle interaction and related geodynamic processes in this region. Teleseismic waveform data were collected from 90 permanent seismic stations deployed in Fujian, including 2 deployed by researchers from Taiwan, China. The crustal thickness and the average Poisson’s ratio of crustal rocks were calculated by H-κ stacking method using teleseismic P-wave radial receiver functions. Combining the calculation results with previous observation results by portable stations, high-resolution distribution maps of crustal thicknesses and Poisson’s ratios were obtained, which show the continental crust is generally thin, with crustal thickness ranging from 28.0 to 34.1 km (averaging 31.0 km), and Poisson’s ratio ranging from 0.22 to 0.29; the Moho interface in the study area is gently undulating, with overall thinning from inland to the coast, and Moho offsets beneath some faults were observed. The coastal area along the continental margin is situated on thin continental crust, not the transition zone between continental and oceanic crusts. The Fu’an-Nanjing fault zone is a vitally important fault zone in the region. The crustal thickness and Poisson’s ratio for crust have a positive correlation in the coastal Fujian-Zhejiang volcanic-intrusive rock belt to the east of the fault zone and a negative correlation in the inland Cathaysia block to the west of the fault zone. Compared to inland, Poisson’s ratio for crust in the coastal area is generally higher, which may be related to Late Mesozoic magmatic underplating and the development of low-velocity thin layers within the crust in the coastal area.

Key words: continental margin of Southeast China, receiver functions, crustal thickness, Poisson’s ratio, Fu’an-Nanjing fault
