Earthquake distribution is quite intensive at the intersection region in the southern segment of the Xianshuihe fault,the Anninghe fault zone,the Xiaojinhe fault zone and the Daliangshan fault zone to the east. The depth profile of seismicity shows a clear stepwise activity along the active seismic fault zones. The profile crossing the faults of the Xianshuihe,Anninghe,and Daliangshan presents a complex interaction among faults near the multiple faults intersection region,Shimian,where the earthquakes are obviously divided into two groups in depth. Earthquakes are very rare at the depth of 15km-20 km,which is consistent with the region of the plastic rheology between 14km-19 km calculated by Zhu Ailan et al.,( 2005).展开更多

The depth of the sequence is distributed in the range of 0- 4km and 5- 20 km,and the layer of 4- 5km depth is an apparent earthquake absence layer. The cross-section along the fractures long axis shows there is an irregular seismic gap in the middle segment of the aftershock region,which is the rupture region of the M6 3/4 earthquake in 1955,and this earthquake occurred in the south of the gap. We believe that the Panzhihua MS6. 1 earthquake sequence on August 30,2008 was a result of rupture of the residual asperity caused by the stress adjustment of the Wenchuan MS8. 0 earthquake. The other two profiles perpendicular to the long axis show that the focal depth in the north segment is larger and the fault plane dips NW,which is consistent with the dip of the Hongge fault.展开更多
