地质年龄测定法已从两个方面用于评价核电站的地质位置。第一,它用来帮助阐明一个地区的构造历史,以及地质位置与区域构造格局的关系。第二,利用地质年龄测定法确定特定断层的活动年龄。这两方面的应用对评价场地附近断层的安全意义是重要的。 Geological age determination has been used to evaluate the geological location of nuclear power plants in two aspects. First, it is used to help clarify the tectonic history of a region, as well as the relationship between the geological location and regional tectonics. Second, the geologic age determination method is used to determine the age of a particular fault. The application of these two aspects is important for evaluating the safety significance of the faults in the vicinity of the site.
