英文摘要 | We present S receiver functions and SKS splitting measurements from the China Seismograph Network located in the Qinghai and Gansu provinces. Teleseismic data are used to interpret the structure of the Lithosphere-Asthenosphere Boundary (LAB) and the upper mantle deformation beneath the northeastern Tibetan Plateau (NETP) in regions north of the east Kunlun fault. Based on our observations, the depth of the LAB is 125 similar to 135 km beneath the northeastern Songpan-Ganzi block and the west Qinling orogen, 145 similar to 175 km beneath the Kunlun and Qilian block, and deepens to the Qaidam basin (175 similar to 190 km), Ordos craton (1,70 km), and Alashan platform (200 km). The NETP has a nearly uniform fast wave direction of NW-SE. These observations are different from those to the south of the Kunlun fault which are rotating clockwise from the inner plateau. The difference between fast directions across the Kunlun fault implies a sudden variation of the upper mantle deformation occurred there. Shear wave splitting delay times vary from 0.8 to 1.9 s. And data from beneath regions north of the Kunlun-Ayimaqin suture showed that delay time was positively correlated with lithospheric thickness. This indicates that the anisotropy may develop in the uppermost mantle, such as the lithosphere, beneath the NETP. |
