摘要: 本文使用10个工业爆破和154个天然地震,以及四川台网50个台站记录的 P 波组到时等资料,以龙门山断裂和二次大地构造单元分界线为界(图1),得出四川东部盆地和西部高原不同的地壳上地幔平均速度模型.若简单地采用双层地壳模型,则东部地壳厚40-41km,壳下 P 波速度为8.15-8.2km/s,壳内上层平均速度为5.82-5.9km/s,厚18km,下层平均速度为6.47-6.54km/s,厚22-23km;西部地壳厚61-64km,壳下 P 波速度为7.8-7.84km/s,壳内上层平均速度为5.82-5.98km/s,厚27-28.5km,下层平均速度为6.94-7.0km/s,厚34-35.5km.此模型为四川地区走时表提供了依据,也为研究地壳上地幔结构与地震的关系,研究我国大陆地块的构造演化及形成等,提供了有用的约束.Abstract: Arrival-time data from 10 industrical explosions and 154 earthquakes recorded by 50 stations of the Sichuan Seismic Network are analyezd to formulate the different average curstal and mantle velocity models for the east basin and west tableland of Sichuan divided by the Longmenshan fault and secondary boundaries of land structure blocks. If a simple two-layer crust is assumed, we have obtained: (1) the velocity model in the eastern part has a crustal thickness of 40-41km, an upper mantle velocity (P wave) of 8.15-8.2 km/s, an 18 km thick upper crust with an average velocity of 5.82-5.9 km/s, and a 22-23 km thick lower crust with an average velocity of 6.47-6.54 km/s; (2) the velocity model in the western part has a crustal thickness of 61-64km, an upper mantle velocity (P wave) of 7.8-7.84 km/s, a 27-28.5 km thick upper crust with an average velocity of 5.82-5.96 km/s and a 34-35.5 km thick lower crust with an average velocity of 6.94-7.0 km/s. This model provides the hasis for the regional travel-time tables of Sichuan and useful constraints for researches the relationship of the crustal and mantle structure with earthquakes, the structural evolution and formation of the China land blocks and so on.
