Three‐dimensional (3‐D) seismic reflection data and sediment cores record ~2.87 million years of structural and depositional history of a trench slope basin along the outer Nankai accretionary prism, southwest Japan. Numerous mass transport deposits (MTDs) and fault structures are present in the basin. Here, we investigate the links between slope failures, slope basin development, and movement along a prominent out‐of‐sequence thrust (OOST) fault and development of a large anticline. Three two‐dimensional (2‐D) cross sections are restored to ~2.2 Ma using stratigraphic and structural relationships interpreted in the 3‐D data. The restorations are then compared and combined to provide a 3‐D perspective of basin development. We find that total shortening across all faults and folds was accommodated by different displacement styles along multiple branches, with 5.3, 5.5, and 7.3 km of shortening from northeast to southwest over the past ~2.2 Ma. We believe that the majority of this displacement occurred prior to ~1.7 Ma, followed by a dramatic decrease in slip rate within the study area as slip was transferred to the more seaward portions of the prism. In the northeast, deformation is primarily accommodated by the main branch of the OOST and anticlinal faulting, while deformation in the southwest is primarily along deeper branches of the OOST. This differential motion explains the occurrences of various mass wasting events, and lateral differences in trench slope basin geometry within the study area.

日本西南部南海增生棱镜沿构造恢复对沟槽坡盆地发育的构造影响

三维(3D)地震反射数据和沉积物岩心记录了日本西南部南海增生棱镜沿线沟槽盆地约287万年的结构和沉积历史。盆地中存在大量的物质运输沉积物(MTD)和断层构造。在这里,我们研究了边坡破坏,边坡盆地发育,沿突出的逆序逆冲断层(OOST)断层运动和大背斜发育之间的联系。使用3D数据中解释的地层和结构关系,将三个二维(2D)断面恢复到约2.2 Ma。然后将这些修复体进行比较和组合,以提供盆地发育的3D透视图。我们发现,所有断层和褶皱的总缩短量是由沿多个分支的不同位移方式所适应的,在过去的约2.2 Ma内,从东北向西南缩短了5.3、5.5和7.3 km。我们认为,这种位移的大部分发生在〜1.7 Ma之前,随后由于滑移被转移到棱镜的更靠海的部分,研究区域内的滑移率急剧下降。在东北部,变形主要由OOST的主分支和背斜断裂提供,而西南部的变形主要沿OOST的较深分支。这种差异运动解释了研究区域内各种质量浪费事件的发生以及沟槽斜坡盆地几何学的横向差异。过去〜2.2 Ma,从东北向西南缩短了3 km。我们认为,这种位移的大部分发生在〜1.7 Ma之前,随后由于滑移被转移到棱镜的更靠海的部分,研究区域内的滑移率急剧下降。在东北部,变形主要由OOST的主分支和背斜断裂提供,而西南部的变形主要沿OOST的较深分支。这种差异运动解释了研究区域内各种质量浪费事件的发生以及沟槽斜坡盆地几何学的横向差异。过去〜2.2 Ma,从东北向西南缩短了3 km。我们认为,这种位移的大部分发生在〜1.7 Ma之前,随后由于滑动转移到了棱镜的更靠海的部分,研究区域内的滑动率急剧下降。在东北部,变形主要由OOST的主分支和背斜断裂提供,而西南部的变形主要沿OOST的较深分支。这种差异运动解释了研究区域内各种质量浪费事件的发生以及沟槽斜坡盆地几何学的横向差异。随后,由于将滑移转移到棱镜的更靠海的部分,因此研究区域内的滑移率急剧下降。在东北部,变形主要由OOST的主分支和背斜断裂提供,而西南部的变形主要沿OOST的较深分支。这种差异运动解释了研究区域内各种质量浪费事件的发生以及沟槽斜坡盆地几何学的横向差异。随后,由于将滑移转移到棱镜的更靠海的部分,因此研究区域内的滑移率急剧下降。在东北部,变形主要由OOST的主分支和背斜断裂提供,而西南部的变形主要沿OOST的较深分支。这种差异运动解释了研究区域内各种质量浪费事件的发生以及沟槽斜坡盆地几何学的横向差异。
