Abstract High-resolution 3-D P and S wave velocity (Vp and Vs) models of the crust and uppermost mantle beneath the northeastern (NE) Tibetan Plateau and the surrounding areas were obtained by applying an improved double-difference seismic tomography method on abundant body wave travel-time data of local and regional earthquakes collected from 1985 to 2018. The improved method not only increases constraints from observed Moho depth information but also incorporates the later-arriving Pg and Sg phases to improve the ray coverage in the middle-lower crust and uppermost mantle. The results show significant low-velocity anomalies in the crust beneath the NE Tibetan Plateau and high-velocity features beneath the surrounding stable Alxa and Ordos blocks. The areas near the boundaries of the cratonic blocks show high velocity in the upper crust and uppermost mantle beneath the Hexi Corridor, and high velocity in the upper crust beneath the Liupan Shan belt. Both of those regions have significant low-velocity anomalies in the middle-lower crust similar to the Tibetan Plateau, which suggests they probably were parts of the Alxa and Ordos blocks respectively, and were cut off from the two cratonic blocks during the lateral expansion of the Tibetan Plateau because of middle-lower crustal ductile deformation and asthenospheric flow. We propose a new tectonic model controlled by middle-lower crustal ductile deformation and asthenospheric flow to illuminate the tectonic evolution and growth mechanism of the NE Tibetan Plateau.

基于改进双差断层扫描的高分辨率地震成像的青藏高原东北部生长新模型

摘要 采用改进的双差地震层析成像方法对丰富的天体进行了改进,获得了青藏高原东北部(NE)及周边地区地壳和最上地幔的高分辨率3-DP和S波速度(Vp和Vs)模型。 1985年至2018年收集的局地和区域地震的波走时数据。改进的方法不仅增加了对观测莫霍面深度信息的约束,而且结合了晚到的Pg和Sg相,以提高中下地壳的射线覆盖率和最上层地幔。结果表明,青藏高原东北部地壳具有显着的低速异常,而周围稳定的阿拉善和鄂尔多斯地块下方具有高速特征。克拉通地块边界附近的区域表现为河西走廊下地壳和最上地幔的高速度,六盘山带下的上地壳速度高。这两个区域都存在与青藏高原相似的中下地壳的显着低速异常,这表明它们可能分别是阿拉善和鄂尔多斯地块的一部分,在横向扩张过程中与两个克拉通地块切断了联系。青藏高原由于中下地壳韧性变形和软流圈流动。我们提出了一种由中下地壳韧性变形和软流圈流控制的新构造模型,以阐明青藏高原东北部的构造演化和生长机制。六盘山带下地壳上地壳的高速。这两个区域都存在与青藏高原相似的中下地壳的显着低速异常,这表明它们可能分别是阿拉善和鄂尔多斯地块的一部分,在横向扩张过程中与两个克拉通地块切断了联系。青藏高原由于中下地壳韧性变形和软流圈流动。我们提出了一种由中下地壳韧性变形和软流圈流控制的新构造模型,以阐明青藏高原东北部的构造演化和生长机制。六盘山带下地壳上地壳的高速。这两个区域都存在与青藏高原相似的中下地壳的显着低速异常,这表明它们可能分别是阿拉善和鄂尔多斯地块的一部分,在横向扩张过程中与两个克拉通地块切断了联系。青藏高原由于中下地壳韧性变形和软流圈流动。我们提出了一种由中下地壳韧性变形和软流圈流控制的新构造模型,以阐明青藏高原东北部的构造演化和生长机制。这表明它们可能分别是阿拉善地块和鄂尔多斯地块的一部分,在青藏高原横向扩张过程中由于中下地壳韧性变形和软流圈流动而与两个克拉通地块分离。我们提出了一种由中下地壳韧性变形和软流圈流控制的新构造模型,以阐明青藏高原东北部的构造演化和生长机制。这表明它们可能分别是阿拉善地块和鄂尔多斯地块的一部分,在青藏高原横向扩张过程中由于中下地壳韧性变形和软流圈流动而与两个克拉通地块分离。我们提出了一种由中下地壳韧性变形和软流圈流动控制的新构造模型,以阐明青藏高原东北部的构造演化和生长机制。
