Abstract：On the basis of 269 small earthquakes recorded by the 24 stations of Jiangsu and Shandong digital seismograph networks,this paper studies the small-scale medium inhomogeneity of mid-upper crust beneath the middle segment of Tancheng-Lujiang fault zone by using the scattering S-wave envelope broadening method.The results reveal that strong inhomogeneity exists in the mid-upper crust beneath the middle segment of Tancheng-Lujiang fault zone, and the Tancheng-Lujiang fault zone is the boundary of the medium with differ-ent inhomogeneity strength and different inhomogeneity scale.The deep struc-tures are strongly correlative with the boundary of the strong and the weak inhomogeneity.The results also show that the developments of the moderate-strong earthquakes are related with the distribution of the strong and the weak inhomogeneity bodies,and moderate-strong earthquakes generally occur at the transitional zone of the strong and the weak inhomogeneity bodies.The distri-bution characteristics of medium inhomogeneity in the mid-upper crust beneath the middle segment of Tancheng-Lujiang fault zone maybe relate with ultra-high pressure metamorphic belt,deep structures and magma activity.
