Slip rate along the Lijiang-Ninglang fault zone estimated from repeating microearthquakes

Tuesday, December 23, 2008 - 10:49 in Earth & Climate

The China Digital Seismic Network (CDSN) provides excellent opportunities to quantify the kinematics and characterise the dynamics of the active fault systems in China. By carefully examining waveforms microearthquakes occurring in South China (Yunnan Province) in the period of 1999-2006, we found that approximately 40% of the earthquakes are similar or repeating events...
