摘要

Almost five years after the 12 May 2008 M_w 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake, the Longmenshan fault zone was struck by the April 20 M_w 6.6 Lushan earthquake, with its hypocenter located ~45 km southwest of the southern end of the Wenchuan surface rupture (Han et al., 2014; Zhang et al., 2014; Fig. 1). Such proximity in space and time between the two events implies that the later event is an aftershock of the previous one, or in other words, the previous event played a more important role in the occurrence of the latter than the long-term tectonic loading did. Early studies on the problem had split opinions. On one hand, Du et al. (2013), Liu et al. (2013), and Xu et al. (2013) considered the two earthquakes as independent events. Wang et al. (2013) and Parsons and Segou (2014), on the other hand, claimed that the Lushan earthquake should be viewed as an aftershock of the Wenchuan earthquake. Whereas each group has its own basis of reasoning, lack of quantitative examination makes these claims less convincing. In recent years, Coulomb stress change has been widely used in estimating magnitude of stress loading for identification of areas or structures at increased risk of earthquake triggering (e.g., Harris, 1998; Stein, 1999; Chéry et al., 2001; Freed and Lin, 2001; Pollitz and Sacks, 2002; Freed, 2005; Steacy et al., 2005; Gomberg and Felzer, 2008). In this paper, we apply this method to investigate to what extent the Lushan earthquake has been triggered by the Wenchuan earthquake. Previous studies have explored the consequence of the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake on the changes in Coulomb stresses on the major faults in the region (Parsons et al., 2008; Toda et al., 2008; Luo and Liu, 2010; Wan and Shen, 2010; Xu et al., 2010; Nalbant and McClosky, 2011). These studies indicated that both coseismic rupture and postseismic viscoelastic relaxation of the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake may have significantly increased/decreased stress levels on some neighborhood faults. Here we calculate both the coseismic and postseismic Coulomb stress changes caused by the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake based on a 3Dviscoelastic model with updated coseismic slip distribution, and compare these contributions with the tectonic stress loading accumulated since theWenchuan earthquake to assess the significance of the triggering effect of theWenchuan earthquake.
