The data set is the original repeated GPS observation data along Paizhen - Motuo active deformation Himalayan orogenic belt in Southeast Tibetan Plateau. The data are measured in 2021, including the data of 18 stations, and the data quality is good. Through the observation data of these observation points, we can reveal the horizontal and vertical distribution characteristics of the northward converging strain of the Indian continent in the key parts of the Himalayan orogenic belt. And we can understand the current uplift state of the Himalayan orogenic belt and its correlation with horizontal movement, and combine with the active faults. Based on the theory of motion dislocation, the quantitative distribution of strain between earthquakes could be studied, as well as the strain accumulation characteristics, fault locking range and fault locking level between earthquakes, which provide important constraints for evaluating the seismic risk of active faults in the study area.

We compiled the Seismotectonic Map and Seismic Hazard Zonation Map of South Asia using the ArcGIS platform through data collecting and digitization. The seismotectonic map of South Asia covers India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. The seismotectonic map is replenished with tremendous amount published data and depicts the location, character and name of the seismogenic faults or active faults and the epicenter of earthquakes with M ≥ 5 from 1960 to 2021. The zonation map shows the mean values of peak ground acceleration (PGA) with 10% probability of being exceeded in 50 years. The two maps can not only be used in the research of active faults and seismic risks in South Asia, but also will be applied to the seismic safety evaluation for infrastructure construction.

The mineral composition of the whole rock and the corresponding percentage content are obtained from the TIMA test results.The seismic properties is based on EBSD and TIMA data calculated by ANIS_ctf software. Data source and processing method: EBSD analysis was completed by FEI FEG-650 scanning electron microscope equipped with EBSD probe in the Key Laboratory of orogenic belt and crustal evolution, School of earth and Space Sciences, Peking University. The accelerating voltage is 20kV and the working distance is 18 mm., In order to avoid the error caused by mineral particle size to the calculation of orientation difference density function (ODF), we manually collected the crystal orientation data (CPO) of main minerals amphibole, mica and plagioclase by using EBSD point analysis mode of hkl Aztec software. The data of TIMA comes from the Key Laboratory of orogenic belt and crustal evolution of the Ministry of education of Peking University and is obtained by four high spatial and temporal resolution EDAX energy spectrometers mounted on tescan field emission scanning electron microscope. The test voltage is 25kV, the working distance is 15mm, and the beam spot is 100nm. Description of data quality: the sample is a 27mm x 47mm standard sheet.

(1)An Ms 6.0 earthquake struck Changning county, Sichuan basin, SW China on 17 June 2019, which caused huge casualties and economic losses. Four Ms greater than 5.0 events subsequently occurred around the Changning source area, three of which occurred within one week. In order to better understand the mechanism of these moderate-sized earthquakes, we determine 3-D high-resolution velocity models around the source area simultaneously relocating earthquakes using double-difference tomography. In the present study, we use a total of 53,487 P-wave and 52,527 S-wave arrival times from 8818 events recorded at 39 seismic stations. Our results show that focal depths of the Changning mainshock and most aftershocks are ~5–10 km, and they form a fault plane with a steep dip angle. Most earthquakes are underlain by the zone with low Vp, low Vs, and high Vp/Vs anomalies, reflecting the existence of fluids there. These results suggest that the Changning mainshock and other moderate-sized earthquakes might be associated with the influence of fluids that could decrease effective normal stress on the fault planes. These fluids might be related to the hot and wet mantle upwelling in the big mantle wedge due to the deep subduction of the Indian plate down to the mantle transition zone. A clear high-to-low velocity transition zone is observed at ~10 km depth beneath the Gongxian and Xingwen swarms, which matches well with the detachment layer revealed by deep seismic soundings in the area. All these results suggest that the structural contrast could control the mainshock generation and aftershock extension. (2)The Tanlu fault zone is the most significant active fault in eastern China, which generated the great 1668 Tancheng earthquake (M 8.5). It is still unclear whether or not there is a link between the great earthquake generation and the upper-mantle structure. To address this issue, we study P-wave upper-mantle tomography beneath eastern China using 44,047 teleseismic P-wave arrival times. Our results show that at depths<150 km, high-velocity (high-V) anomalies appear west of the Tanlu fault zone, whereas low-velocity (low-V) anomalies are visible east of the fault zone. Strong lateral heterogeneities are revealed along the fault zone. At depths of 230–470 km, northwest of the Tanlu fault zone, there are obvious low-V anomalies that may reflect hot and wet mantle upwelling, whereas to the east high-V anomalies are visible, which may reflect the detached Eurasian lithosphere (downwelling). In the mantle transition zone (MTZ), both high-V and low-V anomalies are revealed, and the widespread high-V anomalies may reflect the stagnant Pacific slab. Beneath the hypocenter of the 1668 Tancheng earthquake, intermittent low-V anomalies are revealed in the upper mantle down to the MTZ depth, which may reflect hot and wet mantle upwelling flow. Integrating the present results with previous findings, we deem that the Tancheng earthquake was affected by fluids from the hot and wet mantle upwelling associated with the lithospheric delamination. Complicated mantle convection, including both upwelling and downwelling flows, may occur under the Tanlu fault zone in the big mantle wedge above the stagnant Pacific slab in the MTZ. (3)Since the occurrence of the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake (Ms8.0), many researchers have conducted extensive seismological and geophysical observations and investigations and obtained important results about the Longmenshan fault zone. Crustal structure inferred from local tomography shows that seismic velocity exhibits significant changes across the Wenchuan earthquake hypocenter from the south to the north. To the south, obvious low-velocity (low-V) anomalies exist, whereas strong lateral heterogeneities are revealed to the north, which may explain why the aftershocks extend northeastward. The Wenchuan earthquake occurred at the boundary between high-velocity (high-V) and low-V anomalies and a significant low-V zone is revealed below the mainshock hypocenter, suggesting that the nucleation of the Wenchuan earthquake was related to partial melts and/or fluid effects and associated with the reduction of effective normal stress on the fault plane, due to high temperature and high pressure in the Longmenshan fault zone caused by the India-Asia collision. The upper-mantle structure inferred from teleseismic tomography shows that the Longmenshan fault zone is located in the transition zone from low-V anomalies beneath the Songpan-Ganzi block to high-V anomalies beneath the Sichuan basin. This structural feature extends down to 200−300 km depths. High-V anomalies in the mantle transition zone are connected with those in the upper mantle beneath the Burma arc, indicating that the Wenchuan earthquake could be associated with upwelling of hot and wet materials in the big mantle wedge formed by the deep subduction of the Indian plate. These results suggest that the generation of the Wenchuan earthquake was related to structural heterogeneities in not only the crust but also the upper mantle. In addition, the Wenchuan earthquake may be related to the lower crustal flow, crustal shortening and Zipingpu Reservoir triggering.

Among them, each station includes two receiving functions, the Gaussian coefficient is 2.0, which are in the range of 30-60 ° And 60-90 ° The waveform superimposed within the epicentral distance. Based on the epicentral distance of 30-90 degrees and teleseismic events with magnitude greater than 5.5 recorded by 6 fixed stations set up by China Seismological Bureau for 2 years (2012-2014) and 11 mobile stations set up by Institute of Surveying and Geophysics of Chinese Academy of Sciences in December 2017, the time domain iterative deconvolution method of CPS program is used to extract the receiver function. The results show that the thickness and velocity of shallow sediments are different in different areas of Hanzhong Basin, the velocity changes gently in some areas of Moho, and the distribution of the upper and lower interfaces of focal depth (4-16 km) corresponds to the bottom layer of low velocity body and the top layer of high velocity body.

Seismic anisotropy imposes first-order constraints on the strain history of crust and upper mantle rocks. In this study, we analyze the mantle seismic anisotropy of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin using a new shear wave spitting data set consisting of 1,333 teleseismic arrivals from 82 seismic stations. The resulting 332 high-quality measurements yield a regional mean apparent splitting time (i.e., the magnitude of anisotropy) of 1.10.3s and an average fast orientation (i.e., the direction of anisotropy) of 54.6 degrees 17.2 degrees, which favor a two-layer anisotropic model based on the 90 degrees back azimuthal periodicity in both parameters. The northeast trending fast orientations dominate the lower layer at lithospheric depths and are approximately parallel to the present-day absolute plate motions (APMs; i.e., <35 degrees) due to the active asthenospheric flow. On the other hand, deviations from the APMs along the Canadian Rocky Mountain foothills could reflect disrupted mantle flow surrounding a southwestward migrating cratonic lithosphere. Also revealed are two elongated upper-layer anisotropic anomalies in the lithosphere that are spatially correlated with Moho depths. Their characteristics suggest frozen-in anisotropy imprinted along two convergent boundaries: (1) the Paleoproterozoic Snowbird Tectonic Zone that separates northeast (north) from northwest (south) fast directions and (2) the foothills of the Rocky Mountains that exhibit northeast trending orientations consistent with those of the APMs, maximum crustal stress, and electromagnetic anisotropy. Compressions associated with the Cordilleran orogenesis could be responsible for the spatial changes in the shear wave anisotropy from the foothills to the cratonic interior.

We compiled the Seismotectonic Map and Seismic Hazard Zonation Map of Central Asia using the ArcGIS platform through data collecting and digitization. The seismotectonic map of Western Asia covers Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan. The seismotectonic map is replenished with tremendous amount published data and depicts the location, character and name of the seismogenic faults or active faults and the epicenter of earthquakes with M ≥ 5 from 1960 to 2010. The zonation map shows the mean values of peak ground acceleration (PGA) with 10% probability of being exceeded in 50 years. The two maps can not only be used in the research of active faults and seismic risks in Central Asia, but also will be applied to the seismic safety evaluation for infrastructure construction.

The Tibetan Plateau has strong seismic activity, which is driven by the subduction and collision of the Indian plate between the Eurasian plate and the deformation of the plateau. There are 2854 earthquakes with Magnitude 4.7 or larger have occurred in Plateau region (north latitude 20-40 degrees and east longitude 70-105 degrees) since 1970. Among them, 3 earthquakes with Magnitude 8 or larger, 33 earthquakes with Magnitude 7.0-7.9, 192 earthquakes with Magnitude 6.0-6.9 and 1152 earthquakes with Magnitude 5.0-5.9 have occurred. Earthquakes occurred mainly along the faults in and around the Plateau.

Supported by the national key R & D Program "deep processes and resource effects of Yanshanian major geological events" project "comprehensive geophysical exploration and deep processes of key corridors", we completed two OBS wide-angle seismic profiles in the East China Sea shelf area in 2017 and 2019. Based on the obtained OBS Data, the deep crustal structure of the East China Sea shelf is obtained by using the forward and inversion methods of tomography. The velocity structure reveals that the crustal thickness decreases from 30km in Zhejiang Fujian orogenic belt to 15km in continental shelf basin, and the corresponding crustal velocity changes from 4.40-7.15km/s to 4.30-6.90km/s. Based on the previous studies, we find that there are high magnetic anomalies in Zhejiang Fujian orogenic belt. We think that the crustal structure of Zhejiang Fujian orogenic belt is quite different from that of continental shelf basin. The East China Sea may not be the extension of South China continental margin; There is a high velocity anomaly with a width of about 50km and a velocity of 7.15km/s at the junction of Zhejiang Fujian orogenic belt and continental shelf basin. We speculate that the anomaly is a Mesozoic suture zone, and the high velocity anomaly is related to the magmatic activity caused by plate tearing when the paleo Pacific plate subducted and retreated.

The reconstruction of the craton by the mantle plume and its subsequent dynamic effects are important scientific issues related to the formation and evolution of the craton. Emeishan Large Igneous Province is located in the western margin of Yangtze craton, which is an ideal window to study the effect of mantle plume on craton reformation. With the support of the national key research and development program "Deep Process and Resource Effect of Important Yanshanian Events" (Grant 2016YFC0600400), the mantle deformation characteristics of Emeishan Large Igneous Province were obtained by using teleseismic shear wave (sks, SKKS and PKS) splitting; Combined with the wave velocity structure, geothermal flow and volcanic rock distribution, it reveals the strengthening effect of mantle plume on the craton and the profound influence of the strengthened lithosphere on the present deep process of the southeastern margin of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau; At the same time, it also provides a new perspective for further understanding the origin of seismic anisotropy at the top of the upper mantle and asthenosphere demonstrator interaction.

Seismic observations can be used to constrain the seismic velocity structures and deformation patterns of the crust and upper mantle. The southeastern Iranian plateau is the transitional zone from subduction to collision. The study of this region can provide an important basis for understanding the dynamic progresses of the plate convergence and associated tectonic responses. The data comes from the portable seismic array deployed by this research group. The site selection requirements are strict. All stations are equipped with Trillium 120PA seismometer (120 s-175 Hz) and Taurus digital collector. This data set is the waveform data from the first 100 s to the last 200 s of the direct P wave. Event magnitudes are greater than or equal to 5.0, and epicenter distances range from 30° to 90°. The data can be used to decipher the deep dynamic processes of the subduction-collision transition zone.

The data set is the original repeated GPS observation data along Gyirong - Nyima profile trans active deformation Himalayan orogenic belt in Tibet Plateau. The data are measured twice in 2018 and 2019, including the data of 13 stations, and the data quality is good. Through the observation data of these observation points, combined with the continuous GPS observation profile data that the project research team has deployed along Yadong Gulou in the Himalayan orogenic belt, we can reveal the horizontal and vertical distribution characteristics of the northward converging strain of the Indian continent in the key parts of the Himalayan orogenic belt, understand the current uplift state of the Himalayan orogenic belt and its correlation with horizontal movement, and combine with the active faults Based on the theory of motion dislocation, the quantitative distribution of strain between earthquakes in the main boundary fault (MBT) and the main central fault (MCT) is studied, as well as the strain accumulation characteristics, fault locking range and fault locking degree between earthquakes, which provide important constraints for evaluating the seismic risk of active faults in the study area. Combined with the 2015 Nepal earthquake rupture model, the southern margin of Tibetan Plateau is studied from the perspective of motion to dynamics Lithospheric rheological characteristics.

The dataset is the teleseismic waveform data from the Gyirong – Peiku Tso short-period dense seismic array profile. The data can be used to receiver function methods to probe the structure of the crust and upper mantle. The Gyirong – Peiku Tso profile crosses the north-south Gyirong Rift, and the data are derived from 134 short-period seismic stations set up by the subject group along the east-west Gyirong – Peiku Tso profile, with strict site selection and good data quality. This profile provides an important scientific basis for revealing the velocity discontinuity morphology below the Chilung Rift Valley, i.e., the interfacial extension of the Indian continent swooping northward in the crust below the Himalayan zonation, and for further understanding the lateral changes of the MHT interface and the dynamics of the east-west extension of the Tibetan Plateau.
