Coseismic Deformation and Fault Slip Distribution of the January 7, 2025, Dingri MW7.1 Earthquake
-
摘要:
2025年1月7日西藏自治区日喀则市定日县发生MW7.1地震，震中位置位于申扎‒定结裂谷断系南端和藏南拆离系断裂的交汇处，靠近登么错断裂.为深入了解此次地震的发震机制、滑动分布以及库仑应力扰动，首先利用Sentinel-1A数据，通过InSAR及POT测量技术获取其同震形变场信息；然后，利用SDM程序进行断层滑动分布反演，继而计算不同深度的同震库仑应力扰动.研究结果表明：定日地震同震变形以地表沉降为主；发震断层走向近南北，断层倾角约60°；断层滑动分布反演表明主要破裂区域（滑动量 > 1 m）的长度约40 km、宽度约14 km；最大滑动量约4.45 m，位于断层深度约4.33 km；平均滑动角约-76.81°，表明此次地震是一次以正断破裂为主兼具略微左旋走滑的事件；当剪切模量取30 GPa时，反演的地震矩约3.53×1019 N·m，相当于矩震级MW7.0.早期余震主要分布于主破裂区域外围.另外，同震与震后库仑应力扰动表明，申扎‒定结断裂南端、札达‒拉孜‒邛多江断裂东侧、达吉岭‒昂仁‒仁布断裂中部及东侧、与雅鲁藏布江断裂中部的库仑应力增加明显大于阈值10 kPa，其未来地震风险值得关注.
Abstract:On January 7, 2025, an MW7.1 earthquake struck Dingri County, Shigatse City, Xizang Autonomous Region. The epicenter was located at the intersection of the southern segment of the Shenzha-Dingjie rift fault system and the South Tibetan detachment system, near the Dengmocuo fault. To investigate the seismogenic mechanism, slip distribution, and Coulomb stress disturbances of the earthquake, this study firstly utilized the Sentinel-1A data to obtain the coseismic deformation fields by InSAR (interferometric synthetic aperture rader) and POT (pixel offset tracking) techniques. Then, we employed the SDM program to invert the fault coseismic slip-distribution, and subsequently calculated the coseismic Coulomb stress disturbances with variable depth. The results indicate that the coseismic deformation of the Dingri earthquake is dominated by subsidence. The seismogenic fault strikes nearly north-south, with a dip angle of ~60°. The inverted coseismic slip-distribution suggests that the major rupture zone (slip > 1 m) extends ~40 km in length and ~14 km in width. The maximum slip is approximately 4.45 m, occurring at a depth of ~4.33 km. The average rake angle is approximately ‒76.81°, indicating that this earthquake was predominantly a normal faulting event with a slight left-lateral strike-slip component. Taken the shear modulus at 30 GPa, the inverted seismic moment is about 3.53×1019 N·m, equivalent to the moment magnitude MW7.0. Aftershocks predominantly happened around the periphery of the major slip zone. Additionally, the coseismic and postseismic Coulomb stress disturbances suggest significant increases (> 10 kPa) in the southern segment of Shenzha-Dingjie fault, the eastern segment of Zanda-Lhaze-Qongdojiang fault, the central-eastern segment of Dagyiling-Ngamring-Rinbung fault, and the central segment of Yarlung Tsangpo fault. The future seismic hazards on these fault segments warrant heightened attention.
