Abstract:

Using seasonal gravity observation data from Urumqi and its surrounding areas, collected between April 2019 and April 2022, this paper applies absolute gravity control to perform classical adjustment calculations, identifying the spatial-temporal evolution characteristics of the gravity field in the study area. The relationship between seismic activity and gravity change has long been a topic of interest. The time-varying gravity field is a fundamental physical field that reflects the migration of mass and directly represents the internal tectonic movements of the Earth and surface mass redistribution. The link between earthquakes and gravity changes is primarily related to tectonic movement and variations in mass(density)within the Earth’s interior.

By examining gravity field changes at half-year and one-year scales and analyzing gravity profile images in relation to geological structures, this paper explores the characteristics of gravity field variations in Urumqi and its surrounding areas. To effectively separate gravity anomalies at different depth levels, wavelet multi-resolution analysis is employed to decompose the gravity field anomalies, distinguishing regional from local anomalies in the study area. Specifically, the wavelet multi-scale analysis method is applied to process gravity field dynamic data from 2019-2020, 2020-2021, and 2021-2022. This method helps isolate and interpret abnormal signals in the gravity field, improving the reliability of earthquake precursor gravity anomalies.

The gravity source characteristics provide insight into the physical property changes of the crust. In this study, the “equivalent source” inversion model is used to determine the dynamic characteristics of the crust’s apparent density. The multi-period gravity point values obtained through the adjustment method serve as input data for the equivalent source apparent density change model in the study area.

The results indicate that the gravity field in the study area exhibits clear zonation, with predominant negative changes and alternating positive and negative gravity anomalies. The wavelet gravity details show that the anomaly areas align with geological structures, and the estimated source depth, as determined by the power spectrum, is consistent with the Crust1.0 model. The inversion of the flow gravity data reveals the variation characteristics of the crust’s equivalent apparent density, which correlate well with the time-varying gravity field. Multi-scale decomposition of gravity anomalies at different depth levels further illuminates the physical property changes of the crustal medium, as reflected by the equivalent source density model. These findings, when combined with the regional tectonic background and seismic activity, offer valuable insights. The research presented in this paper provides a foundational understanding of gravity field trends in Urumqi and its surrounding areas, contributing to future predictions of gravity field changes in the region.
