英文摘要 | The Emeishan Large Igneous Province (ELIP) is located along southeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, where long-wavelength crustal thickening and surface uplift have been attributed to the influx of weak crustal material from central Tibet into the lower crust beneath the Yangtze Craton. We have developed a new shear-wave ve-locity model for the lithosphere beneath eastern Tibet, based on a two-step linearized joint inversion technique of P-wave receiver functions (PRFs) with Rayleigh wave dispersion (10-60 s period) and Love wave dispersions (8-30 s period) for three dense seismic arrays. We applied bootstrap resampling technique to calculate the results of inversion. The resulting shear velocity model revealed two major low-velocity features in the middle-lower crust beneath southeastern Tibet. The horizontally extensive low-velocity zone (LVZ) beneath the northern Sichuan-Yunnan diamond-shaped block (SYDSB) can be interpreted as possible lower crustal flow from central Tibet, whereas the low-velocity anomaly observed beneath the Xiaojiang Fault is consistent with the presence of a partially molten layer enhanced by shear deformation along large faults. These two LVZs are separated by a lithospheric-scale high-velocity zone (HVZ) that is situated beneath the geologically inferred core of the ELIP. Based on other geophysical and geological evidence, we interpret this high-velocity anomaly body as remnants of the Emeishan plume-strengthened lithosphere that originally formed during the Permian volcanism, and we speculate that it has acted as a barrier to the hypothesized flow of lower crustal material from central Tibet since the late Cenozoic. |
