We present a morphotectonic study of the offshore northern Sumatra fore-arc high and fore-arc basin and an evolutionary model of the area based on high-resolution marine geophysical datasets. We show that the landward slope of the fore-arc high and the western edge of the Aceh fore-arc basin host a set of deeply-rooted, seaward-dipping backthrusts: main backthrust (MBT) and frontal backthrust (FBT), which we call north Sumatra backthrust system (NSBS). The FBT is imaged reaching the seafloor throughout the study area, whereas the MBT is imaged as a blind fault. Many landward-dipping imbricated thrusts (fore-arc high thrusts-FHT) are also observed below the fore-arc high, which along with the system of backthrusts have been responsible for uplifting the fore-arc high, shortening the Aceh Basin. On the landward slope of the fore-arc high, a strike-slip fault zone is imaged (termed West Andaman Fault - WAF - in accordance with previous studies), is readily interpreted as the product of the slip-partitioning at this oblique convergent margin, with a fraction of the arc-parallel slip localizing at the boundary between fore-arc high and fore-arc basin. Our results allow us to establish the evolutionary history of the thrust faults, strike-slip fault zone and the fore-arc basin. We suggest that the major structural features including backthrusts (MBT, FBT), fore-thrusts (FHTs) and the fore-arc high were developed during the Miocene, and that the growth of the fore-arc high accelerated in the Pliocene onwards owing to a sudden increase in sediment volume provided by the Nicobar fan.

苏门答腊北部近海前弧高和盆地演化,使用高分辨率海洋地球物理数据集

我们提出了苏门答腊北部北部前弧高和前弧盆地的构造构造研究,以及基于高分辨率海洋地球物理数据集的区域演化模型。我们显示,前弧高地的陆坡和亚齐前弧盆地的西缘拥有一套根深蒂固,向海倾斜的后推力:主后推力(MBT)和额叶后推力(FBT),致电北苏门答腊反推系统(NSBS)。FBT成像到达整个研究区域的海底,而MBT成像为盲断。在前高弧以下还观察到许多陆上倾覆的冲断冲断(前高弧冲断-FHT),这与后推力系统一起导致了前高弧的抬升,缩短了亚齐盆地。在前高地的陆坡上,对走滑断层带成像(根据先前的研究,称其为西安达曼断层-WAF),很容易解释为在该斜向收敛边缘处滑移划分的产物,其中弧平行滑移局部化了一部分位于弧高和弧前盆地之间的边界。我们的结果使我们能够确定逆冲断层,走滑断层带和前弧盆地的演化历史。我们建议,在中新世期间,主要的构造特征包括逆冲推力(MBT,FBT),前冲推力(FHT)和前高弧发育,而上新世以后由于上新世起加速了前高弧的增长。 Nicobar风扇提供的沉积物量突然增加。容易将其解释为在该倾斜的会聚边缘处的滑移划分的乘积,其中弧平行滑移的一部分位于前高弧盆和前高弧盆之间的边界处。我们的结果使我们能够确定逆冲断层,走滑断层带和前弧盆地的演化历史。我们建议,在中新世期间,主要的构造特征包括逆冲推力(MBT,FBT),前冲推力(FHT)和前高弧发育,而上新世以后由于上新世起加速了前高弧的增长。 Nicobar风扇提供的沉积物量突然增加。容易将其解释为在该倾斜的会聚边缘处的滑移划分的乘积,其中弧平行滑移的一部分位于前高弧盆和前高弧盆之间的边界处。我们的结果使我们能够确定逆冲断层,走滑断层带和前弧盆地的演化历史。我们建议,在中新世期间,主要的构造特征包括逆冲推力(MBT,FBT),前冲推力(FHT)和前高弧发育,而上新世以后由于上新世起加速了前高弧的增长。 Nicobar风扇提供的沉积物量突然增加。我们的结果使我们能够确定逆冲断层,走滑断层带和前弧盆地的演化历史。我们建议,在中新世期间,主要的构造特征包括逆冲推力(MBT,FBT),前冲推力(FHT)和前高弧发育,而上新世以后由于上新世起加速了前高弧的增长。 Nicobar风扇提供的沉积物量突然增加。我们的结果使我们能够确定逆冲断层,走滑断层带和前弧盆地的演化历史。我们建议,在中新世期间,主要的构造特征包括逆冲(MBT,FBT),前冲(FHTs)和前高弧发育,而上新世起,前高弧的生长加速了。 Nicobar风扇提供的沉积物量突然增加。
