摘要:

2025年1月7日9时5分, 西藏自治区日喀则市定日县发生6.8级地震。中国地震台网中心测定震中位于(28.50°N, 87.45°E)。通过野外地质调查、震源机制解、余震分布等结果, 确定此次地震为正断型地震, 发震构造为申扎-定结裂谷断裂系南段的登么错断裂。登么错断裂走向近SN, 倾向W, 长约60km。此次地震产生的同震地表破裂主要位于登么错盆地以北的山区, 产生了长约25km的不连续同震地表破裂带。地表破裂带具有明显的分段特征, 根据空间延续性, 自南向北可分为3段, 依次为古荣—强嘎段、尼辖错段和羊姆丁错段, 最大垂直位错量为2.5~3.0m, 同时在登么错湖东岸产生了长约10km的地裂缝密集形变带。

Abstract:

At 09:05 am on January 7, 2025, a MS6.8 earthquake occurred in the Dingri, Xizang, China. The earthquake caused serious casualties and property losses. Research on the seismogenic structure and characteristics of earthquake surface rupture in this earthquake is beneficial to understanding the rupture behavior and dynamic mechanism of normal-fault earthquakes. Meanwhile, it provides a basis for predicting the future strong earthquake trend of the southern Xizang rift fault system. Its epicenter is located at 87.45°E, 28.50°N, 13km depth, the China Earthquake Networks Center measures. In order to constrain the seismogenic fault and characterize the co-seismic surface ruptures of this earthquake, field investigations were conducted immediately after the earthquake, combined with analyses of the focal parameters, aftershock distribution, and InSAR inversion of this earthquake.

This preliminary study finds that the seismogenic fault of the Dingri MS6.8 earthquake is the Dengmocuo fault, which is an active ~60km long, NS-NE-striking and normal fault. The total length of the co-seismic surface ruptures is approximately 25km, located on the north segment of the Dengmocuo fault. Meanwhile, a dense deformation zone of ground fracture with a length of ~10km is generated on the east side of Dengmocuo Lake along the contour line of the lake shore. The earthquake also induced a large number of liquefaction structures and tensional fractures in valleys and basins.

Based on along-strike discontinuity due to the development of step-overs, the coseismic surface rupture zone can be subdivided into three segments: the Gurong-Qiangga, Nixiacuo, and Yangmudingcuo segments. The surface ruptures are relatively continuous and prominent along the Nixiacuo segments. Comparatively, co-seismic surface ruptures of Gurong-Qiangga and Yangmudingcuo segments are discontinuous. The maximum of coseismic vertical displacement is roughly determined to be 2.5—3.0m based on the scarps. The width of the surface rupture zone of the Dingri earthquake can reach up to 450m in some areas. The location of surface rupture zones is not limited to fault scarps and hanging walls. There are also a large number of secondary scarps and cracks distributed in the footwall. Many cracks are distributed in an en echelon or grid pattern.

Compared to the continuous surface rupture caused by strike-slip-type earthquakes in recent years, the surface rupture of the Dingri earthquake is very discontinuous, and there is an obvious difference in displacement between each segment of the surface rupture. Preliminary speculation suggests that it may be related to the characteristics of the fault movement. Unlike strike-slip faults where the dislocation direction is parallel to the strike, the dislocation direction of normal faults is perpendicular to the strike. In addition, the observed length of surface rupture and maximum displacement of the Dingri earthquake are basically consistent with the results calculated by empirical formulations.
