Extensional Seismogenic Stress and Tectonic Movement on the Central Region of the Tibetan Plateau
Figure 2
(a) Fault plane solutions of events. (b) Distribution of normal, thrust, and strike-slip faulting events. The Tibetan plateau is surrounded by the Himalayas, Altyn, Qilian, and NSSB. Open circle: normal faulting event; Cross: strike-slip faulting event; Plus: reverse faulting event. Regions AB (the western part of the normal faulting event region, Lhasa block) and CD (the eastern part of the normal faulting event region, Qiangtang-Changdu region) enclosed with dashed lines.
