主题:最新研究:紫铺坪水库触发汶川地震 -- 大龙猫
纯粹学术探讨,不涉及兴水库或废水库之争。别民科也别大旗,也别往三峡上扯,都冷静
Did the Zipingpu Reservoir trigger the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake?

The devastating May 2008 Wenchuan earthquake (Mw 7.9) resulted from thrust of the Tibet Plateau on the Longmen Shan fault zone, a consequence of the Indo-Asian continental collision. Many have speculated on the role played by the Zipingpu Reservoir, impounded in 2005 near the epicenter, in triggering the earthquake. This study evaluates the stress changes in response to the impoundment of the Zipingpu Reservoir and assesses their impact on the Wenchuan earthquake. We show that the impoundment could have changed the Coulomb stress by 0.01 to 0.05 MPa at locations and depth consistent with reported hypocenter positions. This level of stress change has been shown to be significant in triggering earthquakes on critically stressed faults. Because the loading rate on the Longmen Shan fault is <0.005 MPa/yr, we thus suggest that the Zipingpu Reservoir potentially hastened the occurrence of the Wenchuan earthquake by tens to hundreds of years.
摘要里,葛社民等认为,在青藏高原向龙门山断层推覆的大背景下(即汶川地震的成因),紫铺坪水库改变了震中位置上的Coulomb力(0.01 to 0.05 MPa)作用,触发了地震。
注一:汶川地震的起因是板块碰撞,跟紫铺坪水库无关。葛文认为紫铺坪水库只是“触发”了地震。
注二:葛文里具体的计算里也还有可商榷的地方。所以这个触发说也只是葛的一家之言,不代表学界共识。
注三:我最想说的是,如果时光可以倒流:如果在修紫铺坪水库之前,先发生了汶川地震。然后如果你是一个决策者,你会决定在离震中仅20公里的地方修水库吗?
注四:印度板块的挤压,青藏高原的隆起,给我们带来了巨大的水位落差和水电资源。但另一方面,这个构造背景也决定了,那里的构造变动也是家常便饭。在那里进行工程项目,一定要慎之又慎!
注五:对“注四”有异议的话,请参考南京鼓楼隧道项目。
