Abstract:The Mingguang-Lujiang segment of the Tancheng-Lujiang fault zone is a part of southern Tancheng-Lujiang fault zone. In spite of its rich deep structure research findings,the researches on its structural geomorphology and the overall shallow features are relatively few. The paper uses the detailed remote sensing to interpret the fault,analyzes its structural geomorphology and geometric distribution by using ETM+and KH satellite images data,as well as other geological surveys. The results show that 4 main faults have performances in remote sensing images. The northern segments of the 2 western branches show clear images,but the southern ones do not. Beaded lakes,the fault plug ponds,linear scarps and arc tectonics are formed along the fault. The 2 eastern branches have clear linear features on the images. The topographical grooves,linear scarps and knife shaped fault scarps are well developed along the fault. Field surveys reveal that the fault fracture zones are developed where linear image features are obvious. Some zones have a width of several dozens of meters with significant properties change. The cross section shows the multi-stage complex active characteristics of the fault zone. The remote sensing interpretation and field investigation show that the fault's tectonic geomorphology and surface geometry discussed in the paper provide a background for the further research on the future seismic risk in the zone.
