摘要

Fault stability margin (SM) due to Deccan Trap overburden estimated for limiting boundary conditions and pore pressures that are not lithostatic is highest along the western pericontinental belt of active rifts (BARS) (h = 1.5 km, SM similar to 146 bars). Despite maximum strengthening of weak faults, the frequency of earthquakes is the highest in the BARS. Seismogenesis in the DABS is, therefore, attributed to augmentation of compressive stresses, though erosion and isostatic uplift may play a subordinate role in the southern part, The SM for pore pressures that totally cancel the normal stress Is zero but it is suggested that such conditions may ire pare where the hypocentres are shallow and the weak faults are possibly open to the surface. The strain rates for events of M greater than or equal to 4.0 and/or I greater than or equal to 5 in the time span 1750-1997 AD (247 years) are the highest for the Kutch seismic domain, being 3.5 x10(-8)/yr. They are similar for the BARS and SONATA belt being 1.2-1.5 x 10(-11)/yr, and are lower by an order of magnitude (1.7-4.2 x 10(-11)/yr) in the Godavari and Saurashtra domains which have: a more closely comparable continental crustal structure. The moment rate tensors estimated for BARS indicate the dominance of N-S compressional stresses. In view of preferred N-S orientation of BARS, we. tend to believe Brat ridge push forces along the mid-Indian Ocean ridges may have a dominant contribution Lo the stress field of this region matching the Himalayan back thrust. The difference In moment release pattern between the BARS and the SONATA belt is probably due to the: contrasting deep continental structure of these regions, The uncertainties in estimation of seismic moments, particularly for historical events, and other assumptions render the above conclusions tentative. However, differences of one or two orders of magnitude in strain rates and concordance of observations with geological and stress field measurements enhance their credibility. [References: 30]
