A swarm of more than 2000 small earthquakes suddenly occurred densely along the river section in Xinling Town north of Badong, Hubei Province, on June 7. This caused grave concern in the following years, but, with the completion of the second- and third-phase engineering construction, the water level in the reservoir will rise up to 156 m and 175 m respectively, no matter whether it can induce larger and stronger earthquakes. After an analysis of the distribution of active faults in the eastern part of the reservoir area, their intersections and capability to generate earthquakes from a seismo-tectonic viewpoint, we consider that after the reservoir impounding, two potential focal zones existing in Badong and Zigui counties may generate M 5.5 earthquake, the seismic intensity of which may reach Ⅷ. It will induce landslide bodies in the reservoir area to be reactivated and slide. The evidence is the large-scale landslide occurring on the Shazhenxi Creek river in Zigui County on June 12, 2003.展开更多

Apatites are selected from fracture clay and fracture\|cliff rock in the fracture belts and examined with the fission track dating method. Our study shows that the Xiannushan and Jiuwanxi fracture belts were tectonically active at 0.60±0.04Ma and 0.29±0.04Ma ago, respectively. Their ages are close to those obtained by the U\|series method.展开更多

How will the debris flow activities develop when the water level of the Reservoir reaches 175 m in height in 2009? This paper analyzes the change of environment for debris flow before and after storing water comprehensively, and special attention is given to the effects of the Reservoir bank rebuilding-process on debris flow activities, and the probability of appearance of new manmade debris flow due to irrational human activities during the construction of the Reservoir. 11 items of predicted results on the developing trend of debris flow activities in the Reservoir area and a suggestion are presented for relevant branches as references in the discussion and implementation of prevention and control of geological disasters in the Reservoir area.展开更多
