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

From the fea-tures of depth distribution and undulation of Moho, it is suggested that the eastern Asian region can be divided into 18 gradient belts with different sizes, 18 crustal blocks, 20 sediment basins and depression zones. The depth of Moho varies smoothly in each block, while the boundary (separat-ing different blocks) delineates the abrupt variation of Moho depth. Then, some subjects,such as oregen and sediment basin, fault system and rift, plate boundary, ocean-continent coupling and tectonic framework, are discussed based on the distribution gradient belts and block partition fea-tures of Moho depth in the eastern Asia and its adjacent regions.展开更多
