It was found that distinct features of energyreleasing behavior exist for the two types of subduction. The oceanic subduction tends to have a more active background noise by continuously emitting small magnitude earthquakes & to release energy from a wider range of depth owing to the existence of subducted plate. On the other hand, surficial strata of a continental subduction tend to release almost all of the seismic energy through a major earthquake with relatively much less long-term noise. Meanwhile, several seismic gaps have been found based on the proposed release energy contour. Together with the tectonic framework & the regional geologic setting, these gaps potentially may involve aseismic zones (e.g., accretionary deposit) or zones awaiting to release its accumulated energy (e.g., the upper crust). The quite zones prone to yielding major earthquakes are accordingly highlighted for a further study. |
