摘要

人们普遍认为,水平构造力和横向流变对比控制着应变局部化,从而控制着山脉的演化。然而,在涉及大量表面物质再分配的活动造山运动中,表面过程和垂直流变特性的强烈对比在多大程度上以及以何种方式管理应力传递和应变分配,一直是关键争论和讨论的主题。龙门山(LMS)地区是青藏高原周围地形梯度最陡的地区。了解异常陡坡起伏、缓慢辐合速率和快速侵蚀速率之间的相互作用,对于理解地表过程和垂直流变构型对青藏高原东部演化机制的影响至关重要。在这项研究中,采用二维有限元模型来检索ETP和LMS中表面形貌与深层物质输运之间的强大关系。这些模型考虑了基本的力学参数,特别是侵蚀速率和中地壳流变结构。结果表明,区域构造作用支配着研究区构造变形机制和地表地貌特征。不同的侵蚀作用对周边地形的形成有显著的影响,并改变了不同断层间的地震潜势。在龙日坝断裂和LMS之间,弱中地壳物质通过垂直应变分配使上下地壳解耦。这种解耦作用影响了LMS深部拆离构造的形成,并促进了上地壳的脆性缩短,导致该地区的陡坡起伏。最后,我们的研究结果表明,通道流动和脆性地壳缩短模式在ETP和LMS的不同区域不是相互竞争的,而是共存的。受继承的岩石圈非均质性影响的深部作用在东东隆起和LMS的形成过程中起决定性作用。我们的研究结果强调了理解形成青藏高原东部边缘的基础地球动力学机制的重要性。

Role of surface processes and deep crustal rheology in the steady-state LongMenShan building: Insights from geodynamic modeling
It is widely accepted that the horizontal tectonic forces and lateral rheological contrast control the strain localization and, consequently, the evolution of mountain ranges. However, in active orogenesis involving massive surface materials redistribution, to what extent and in which way do surface processes and strong contrast in vertical rheological properties manage the stress transmission and strain partitioning, have been the subject of critical debate and discussion. The LongMenShan (LMS) area exhibits the steepest topographic gradient around the Tibetan Plateau. Understanding the interplay among the abnormal steep relief, slow convergence rate, and rapid erosion rate is crucial for comprehending how surface processes and vertical rheological configurations contribute to the evolution mechanisms of the Eastern Tibetan Plateau (ETP). In this study, 2-D finite element models were employed to retrieve robust relationships between surface topography and deep material transport in the ETP and LMS. These models considered fundamental mechanical parameters, particularly the erosion rate and mid-crustal rheological configuration. The results indicate that regional tectonization governs the tectonodeformation mechanism and surface geomorphic characteristics of the study area. Differential erosion is shown to significantly influence the shaping of peripheral topography and alter the substantial seismic potential across different faults. Between the LongRiBa Faults (LRBF) and the LMS, the weak mid-crust material decouples the upper and lower crusts via vertical strain partitioning. This decoupling affects the formation of deep detachment structures in the LMS and promotes the brittle shortening of the upper crust, contributing to the region's steep relief. Lastly, our results suggest that channel flow and brittle crustal shortening modes are not mutually competitive but rather coexist in different regions of the ETP and LMS. Deep processes, influenced by inherited lithospheric heterogeneities, play a decisive role during the formation of the ETP and LMS. Our results underscore the importance for understanding the underpinning geodynamic mechanisms that shape the eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau.

期刊介绍: The objective of the journal Global and Planetary Change is to provide a multi-disciplinary overview of the processes taking place in the Earth System and involved in planetary change over time. The journal focuses on records of the past and current state of the earth system, and future scenarios , and their link to global environmental change. Regional or process-oriented studies are welcome if they discuss global implications. Topics include, but are not limited to, changes in the dynamics and composition of the atmosphere, oceans and cryosphere, as well as climate change, sea level variation, observations/modelling of Earth processes from deep to (near-)surface and their coupling, global ecology, biogeography and the resilience/thresholds in ecosystems. Key criteria for the consideration of manuscripts are (a) the relevance for the global scientific community and/or (b) the wider implications for global scale problems, preferably combined with (c) having a significance beyond a single discipline. A clear focus on key processes associated with planetary scale change is strongly encouraged. Manuscripts can be submitted as either research contributions or as a review article. Every effort should be made towards the presentation of research outcomes in an understandable way for a broad readership.
