Faulted Landforms, Slip-Rate, and Tectonic Implications of the Eastern Lenglongling Fault, Northeastern Tibetan Plateau

Tectonophysics, 2022
The Lenglongling fault (LLLF) is an important part of the Qilian-Haiyuan fault (QHF) zone along the NE Tibetan Plateau. The Jinqianghe fault (JQHF) branches off of the LLLF and forms a fault junction that separates middle and eastern LLLF. Currently, it is not well understood how/if strain from the LLLF is transmitted to the JQHF over geologic time ...

Fault Slip of the 2022 Mw6.7 Menyuan, China Earthquake Observed by InSAR, and Its Tectonic Implications

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
In this article the ascending and descending Sentinel-1A satellite data are used to investigate the coseismic slip model of the 2022 Mw6.7 Menyuan earthquake in Qinghai, China. The optimal slip model indicates that this event ruptured two fault segments.

Coseismic Rupture Model and Tectonic Implications of the January 7 2022, Menyuan Mw 6.6 Earthquake Constraints from InSAR Observations and Field Investigation

Remote Sensing, 2022
A Mw 6.6 earthquake struck Menyuan, Qinghai, China, on 7 January 2022. To determine the rupture parameters of this event, the coseismic InSAR deformation fields were mapped and further employed to estimate the focal mechanism.

Slip Models of the 2016 and 2022 Menyuan, China, Earthquakes, Illustrating Regional Tectonic Structures

Remote Sensing, 2022
As one of the large-scale block-bounding faults in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau, the Qilian-Haiyuan fault system accommodates a large portion of north-eastward motion of the Tibetan Plateau. In 2016 and 2022, two strong earthquakes of Mw6.0 and Mw6.6

Slip Rate and Recurrence Intervals of the East Lenglongling Fault Constrained by Morphotectonics: Tectonic Implications for the Northeastern Tibetan Plateau [PDF]

Lithosphere, 2017
The Lenglongling fault located in the northeast margin of the Tibetan Plateau plays an important role in accommodating the tectonic deformation of the Tibetan Plateau relative to the Gobi–Ala Shan platform to the north and the North China craton to the east. However, little is known about the fault due to a lack of previous research.
