Lithospheric Flexural Isostasy Background of the 2017 Ms7.0 Jiuzhaigou Earthquake and Its Implications on Material Extrusion in the Northeastern Bayan Har Block [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Abstract We applied a 2-dimensional, non-spectral technique to investigate the spatial variations of the lithospheric effective elastic thickness (Te) in the eastern Bayan Har block and its adjacent areas. Te values were determined by comparison of observed and flexural modelled Bouguer gravity anomalies.

Shear wave splitting analysis of local earthquakes from dense arrays in Shimian, SichuanKey points

open access: yesEarthquake Science, 2023
The Shimian area of Sichuan sits at the junction of the Bayan Har block, Sichuan-Yunnan rhombic block, and Yangtze block, where several faults intersect. This region features intense tectonic activity and frequent earthquakes.
