报告简介：

        The Gyeongsang Basin located at the easternmost part of the Sino-Korea shield and bears a very special place in seismotectonic evolution. Arguably, the most significant historical earthquake of the 779 Gyeongju earthquake (also the deadliest recorded earthquake in South Korea), the largest instrument-recorded event in modern history, i.e., the 2016 ML5.8 Gyeongju earthquake, as well as the largest anthropogenic activity induced 2017 ML5.4 Pohang earthquake, all occurred in the Gyeongsang Basin.

Yangsan Fault is the major NNE oriented fault inside the Gyeongsang Basin, with several secondary faults to form the Yangsan Fault system that critically controls active seismicity in the southeast Korean Peninsula. We started our research from the detailed study of the Miryang Fault. 

Miryang Fault (MF) is one of the most active branches of the Yangsan Fault system in the Gyeongsang Basin. Heo et al (2023) identified five (5) earthquake clusters via microearthquake distribution. The Miryang Fault is one of the five clusters that can be defined as an active branch of the Yangsan Fault system. We conducted geophysical surveys, with backboned by passive and active seismic methods along 6 profiles crossing the Miryang Fault. At the northern tip of the Miryang Fault in the in the Geoncheon Valley electric resistivity tomography (ERT) and gravity surveys were also conducted., All the profiles are designed perpendicular to the inferred strike of the Miryang Fault. The longest profile is about twelve kilometers with a station spacing of one hundred meters, and the shortest profile is about 300 m with station spacing as fine as 2 m. With the integrated data analysis and comprehensive synergy, we interpret that the Miryang Fault appears to have several sub-branches in the Geoncheon valley. The tip damage zone type of the north end of the Miryang Fault can be characterized as a combination of horsetail splay and branch faults. Similar approaches are also applied to other faults in this basin.

         As perspectives for future work, to conclude the talk I will also briefly discuss (1) what factors determine the seismicity level of a particular fault? and (2) what factors control the spacing of faults in a fault system?
