| 英文摘要 | The high number of active faults in the vicinity of the planned 1142-km-long Golmud-Lhasa railway line across the Tibetan Plateau poses a great hazard to the railway. This is not only from periodic fault offsets, measured in meters, and the effects from large to great earthquakes, but also from significant ground displacement from annual fault-controlled freeze-thaw features in the areas of permafrost. Twenty-seven major active faults in eight seismic zones were revealed by detailed mapping along the railway route. Most of the faults have strike-slip movement, with those in the northern plateau being sinistral and those in the southern part dextral, although some normal faults are associated with graben and pull-apart basins. Many faults have produced earthquakes in the Ms 6.0-8.0 range, and the high slip rates, of 4-15 mm/year, found on others indicate a potentially similar range. The Ms 8.1 Central Kunlun earthquake of 2001 had an associated left-lateral displacement of 7-14 m near the epicenter and a 4-5 m offset where the railway line was cut. Such earthquakes, which can cause serious damage to the railway and associated facilities, occur relatively frequently. Tectonic creep along the faults between earthquakes also causes problems and has destroyed a section of highway adjacent to the railway line. |
