Extensional Seismogenic Stress and Tectonic Movement on the Central Region of the Tibetan Plateau

Various earthquake fault types, mechanism solutions and stress fields, as well as GPS and geothermal data are analyzed for the study of the crustal movements on the Tibetan plateau and their tectonic implications. The results show that a lot of the normal faulting type-event concentrated at altitude...
