板块内地震或与地幔对流有关
板块内地震 地幔对流
2015/8/27
美国南加利福尼亚大学的科学家发现,板块内地震或与地幔对流有关。该研究为困扰人们已久的板块内地震成因提供了一种较为合理的解释。相关论文发表在最新一期《自然》杂志上。
地震是地壳快速释放能量所造成的一种振动现象,多发生在地球板块边界或断裂带上。板块间的相互挤压碰撞所造成的板块边沿及板块内部的错动和破裂,一直被认为是引发地震的主要原因。但美国西部等一些远离板块边界的地区也经常会出现地震,这一点让科学家...

Study Proposes Common Mechanism for Shallow and Deep Earthquakes
Common Mechanism Shallow and Deep Earthquakes
2015/5/25
Earthquakes are labeled “shallow” if they occur at less than 50 kilometers depth. They are labeled “deep” if they occur at 300-700 kilometers depth. When slippage occurs during these earth...

美国建立人工地震初步风险模型
美国 人工地震 初步风险模型
2015/4/28
据每日科学网站报道,美国地质调查局近日发布报告,公开了一组人工地震初步风险模型所预测的地震频发区的地面晃动情况。利用该模型可以估算出下一年人工地震活动频率以及地面晃动的严重程度。人工地震,是指由人为活动引起的地震,如工业爆破、地下核爆等造成的震动。这份报告集中关注了美国的中部和东部地区,未来还会将美国西部各州的数据纳入研究范围。2009年以来,美国中东部地区的人工地震活动增加明显。美国地质调查局所...
