摘要
The crustal stress field of the Baikal Rift System has been reconstructed by tectonophysical inversion of focal mechanisms from the catalog of earthquakes recorded by the regional seismological network. Cataclastic analysis of fault slip data developed at the Shmidt Institute of the Physics of the Earth (Moscow) revealed previously unknown features in the behavior of principal stresses. Namely, the maximum deviatoric stresses diverge off the rift axis while the normalized spherical and deviatoric stress tensor components reach high magnitudes in the crust of the Baikal Basin. The obtained stress pattern of the Baikal Rift System is consistent with the rift origin by a joint action of a vertical mantle flow (upwelling branch of convection) and a horizontal flow in the asthenosphere which drives the NW-SE mo-tion of the Amur plate off Eurasia.
