However, its primary limitation is the restriction to two-dimensional surface data, which limits the exploration of fossils’ 3D complexities. Conversely, 3D X-ray microscopy (3D-XRM), also known as a novel form of micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) facilitates the non-destructive 3D reconstruction of fossil specimens.

This innovative strategy is designed to synergize the advantages of both techniques, thereby addressing challenges that conventional methods cannot. It enables the rapid identification of regions of interest (ROI) within fossil specimens at micrometer resolution.

However, naturally deformed rocks usually contain compositional layers (e. g., parallel compositional banding). It is necessary to understand how both varying mineral contents and differing intensities of compositional layering influence the seismic properties of the deep crust. In this study, we analyzed the seismic response of migmatitic amphibolite with compositional banding structures. We present the microstructures, fabrics, calculated seismic velocities, and seismic anisotropies of mylonitic amphibolite from a horizontal shear layer preserved within the Ailao Shan-Red River shear zone, southwestern Yunnan, China. The investigated sample is characterized by pronounced centimeter-scale compositional banding. The microstructures and fabrics suggest that migmatitic amphibolite rocks within deep crust may delineate regions of deformation-assisted, channelized, reactive, porous melt flow. The origin of compositional banding in the studied migmatitic amphibolite is attributed primarily to partial melting together with some horizontal shearing deformation. The microfabrics and structures investigated in this study are considered to be typical for the base of active horizontal shear layers in the deep crust of southeastern Tibet. Seismic responses are modeled by using crystal preferred orientations for minerals of the migmatitic amphibolite by applying the Voigt-Reuss-Hill homogenization method. Calculated P-wave and S-wave velocities are largely consistent in the various layers of the migmatite. However, seismic anisotropies of P-wave (<i>AV</i><sub><i>p</i></sub>) and S-wave (<i>AV</i><sub><i>s</i></sub>) are higher in the melanosomes (<i>AV</i><sub><i>p</i></sub> = 5.6%, <i>AV</i><sub><i>s</i></sub> = 6.83%) than those in the leucosomes and the whole rock (<i>AV</i><sub><i>p</i></sub> = 4.2%–4.6%, <i>AV</i><sub><i>s</i></sub> = 3.1%–3.2%). In addition, there is pronounced, S-wave splitting oblique to the foliation plane in the migmatitic amphibolite. The multiple parallel compositional layers generate marked variation in the geometry of the seismic anisotropy (<i>V</i><sub><i>s1</i></sub> polarization) in the whole rock. Combined with the macroscale geographical orientation of fabrics in the Ailao Shan-Red River shear zone, these compositional banding effects are inferred to generate significant variations in the magnitude and orientation of seismic anisotropy, especially for shear-wave anisotropy (<i>AV</i><sub><i>s</i></sub>) in the deep crust. Hence, our data suggest that layering of various origins (e.g., shear layers, partial-melting layers, and compositional layers) represents a new potential source of anisotropy within the deep crust.</p>","PeriodicalId":15607,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Earth Science","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142198409","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A detailed investigation of the fault activity, trenching, drilling joint geological profile, geological survey, and chronological analysis were used to obtain the spatial geometry, fault kinematics, and activity chronology of the Jiulong fault. The conclusions are as follows: (1) The Jiulong fault was a fracture zone composed of four branch faults, with a width of around 30–40 m and good extendibility, while the maximum surface rupture length was 373 m. (2) The Jiulong fault has many strata dislocations, and the dislocation distance decreased from bottom to top, demonstrating synsedimentary structure characteristics, with a maximum stratigraphic dislocation distance of 18.2 m. (3) Preliminary analysis suggested the Jiulong fault as a secondary fracture of the Xiangfan-Guangji fault zone and provided evidence of the southeastward extension of the Xiangfan-Guangji fault. A preliminary hypothesis purported the Xiangfan-Guangji fault as the seismogenic fault of the <i>Ms</i> 5.0 magnitude earthquake in 1911.

The scale and frequency of landslides are presently increasing owing to the warming effects of climate change, which further increases the associated safety risks. In this study, the relationship between historical landslides and environmental variables in the Hanjiang River Basin was determined and an optimized model was used to constrain the relative contribution of variables and best spatial response curve. The optimal MaxEnt model was used to predict the current distribution of landslides and influence of future rainfall changes on the landslide susceptibility. The results indicate that environmental variables in the study area statistically correlate with landslide events over the past 20 years. The MaxEnt model evaluation was applied to landslide hazards in the Hanjiang River Basin based on current climate change scenarios. The results indicate that 25.9% of the study area is classified as a high-risk area. The main environmental variables that affect the distribution of landslides include altitude, slope, normalized difference vegetation index, annual precipitation, distance from rivers, and distance from roads, with a cumulative contribution rate of approximately 90%. The annual rainfall in the Hanjiang River Basin will continue to increase under future climate warming scenarios. Increased rainfall will further increase the extent of high- and medium-risk areas in the basin, especially when following the RCP8.5 climate prediction, which is expected to increase the high-risk area by 10.7% by 2070. Furthermore, high landslide risk areas in the basin will migrate to high-altitude areas in the future, which poses new challenges for the prevention and control of landslide risks. This study demonstrates the usefulness of the MaxEnt model as a tool for landslide susceptibility prediction in the Hanjiang River Basin caused by global warming and yields robust prediction results. This approach therefore provides an important reference for river basin management and disaster reduction and prevention. The study on landslide risks also supports the hypothesis that global climate change will further enhance the frequency and intensity of landslide activity throughout the course of the 21st Century.</p>","PeriodicalId":15607,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Earth Science","volume":"69 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142198452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

New BP neural network models were established for the prediction of amplification factors of PGA and response spectra. Two kinds of input variables’ combinations which are convenient to achieve are proposed in this paper for the prediction of amplification factors of PGA and response spectra, respectively. The absolute values of prediction errors can be mostly within 0.1 for PGA amplification factors, and they can be mostly within 0.2 for response spectra’s amplification factors.

The results show that surcharge parameters significantly affect the stability and the deformation characteristics of the slope-pile-footing system. Specifically speaking, with the increasing surcharge intensity and the decreasing surcharge position and width, the deformation and failure mode of the system will gradually evolve in a direction that is harmful to its stability. The interaction mechanism of the slope-pile-footing system is further clarified as the load transfer of the building footing, the generation of the additional stress in the slope foundation, and the adjustment of pile bending moment due to the stress redistribution.
