Abstract

As one of the four largest bay areas with strong economic activities in the world

the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GHMGBA) is located in the zone of interaction between the South China Block (SCB) and the South China Sea (SCS). Under the influence of complex geologic evolution

basin-range structures

fault systems and hot springs are well developed here. However

the characteristics of geological structures and the genetic mechanism of these geological phenomena are still unclear. Therefore

we performed ambient noise tomography to obtain 3-D upper crust (0‍‍‍‍‍‍–‍‍7.5 km) S-wave velocity structures of the GHMGBA by using 40-day continuous waveform data from 130 seismic stations in the GHMGBA. Our results show that sedimentary basins in the GHMGBA are mainly characterized by low-velocity anomalies. S-wave velocities of sediment formation in basins are about 2.8‍‍‍–‍3.1 km/s. Rapid changes in velocity appear at the edges of the basins

which correspond to the NE-

NEE-

and NW-trending faults

indicating prominent basin-controlling effects of the faults. The Sanshui Basin (SSB)

the largest in the GHMGBA

has a developmental depth of about 4 km

and there is a significant difference in velocity gradient between the east and west sides of the basin

indicating that SSB has experienced east-west asymmetric expansion. Moreover

there are prominent low-velocity anomalies at a depth of about 4.5 km beneath the hot springs at the west of the Zhujiang (Pearl) River estuary (ZRE). We infer that the low-velocity anomalies are fluid reservoirs of the hot springs

which lead to the development of the hot springs on the surface. In addition

the distribution of main cities in the GHMGBA shows a spatial correlation with low-velocity areas at shallow depths (<3 km). The population development trend in the GHMGBA in the past 20 years is also mainly concentrated in the structural province of relatively low-velocity. In combination with the GHMGBA basin structures and drainage distribution characteristics

we suggest that the basic geological environment to some extent affects the habitability of the human settlement and thus determines the distribution and development trend of the main urban context. We believe that the 3-D S-wave velocity structure of the upper crust of the GHMGBA obtained in this study

as well as the deep structural characteristics of the basins and hot springs

will provide support to urban construction planning and geological hazards research of the GHMGBA.
