Fault locking of the Qilian–Haiyuan fault zone before the 2022 Menyuan Ms6.9 earthquake and its seismic hazards in the future

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
By using GPS-derived velocities of 2015–2021 and a negative dislocation program, we inverted the locking degree and slip rate deficit in the Qilian–Haiyuan fault zone, and combined with the distribution of small earthquakes in the fault, we studied the ...

Coseismic Kinematics and Early Afterslip Evolution of the 2025 Mw ${\mathbf{M}}_{\mathbf{w}}$ 7.1 Dingri Earthquake (Southern Tibet) From Space Geodesy

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 22, 28 November 2025.
Abstract The 2025 Mw ${\mathrm{M}}_{\mathrm{w}}$ 7.1 Dingri earthquake is a large normal‐faulting event within the Southern Tibet Rift System. We use space‐borne radar interferometry to investigate both coseismic rupture and ∼3‐month early afterslip. Results show that this event ruptured a west‐dipping (48°) fault, exhibiting a predominant normal dip ...

A 43,000‐Year‐Long Paleoseismic Record Along the Southern Section of the Lijiang‐Xiaojinhe Fault, Southeastern Tibetan Plateau, China

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Paleoseismic data on the timing of ground‐rupturing earthquakes can help identify the sources of historical earthquakes and define the extent of seismic rupture gaps. The Lijiang‐Xiaojinhe fault (LXF) is a left‐lateral strike‐slip fault that stretches 380 km along the southeastern margin of the Tibet Plateau, passing through the densely ...

Data‐driven distributionally robust optimization of railway alignments in earthquake‐prone regions considering active fault zone risks

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 25, Page 4321-4341, 20 October 2025.
Abstract Railway alignment design in earthquake‐prone regions faces many challenges, among which an active fault zone threat is a dominant factor. However, slight attention has been devoted in this field to the complex fault zone risks affecting alignment optimization (AO). To this end, the first‐known AO model that estimates active fault zone risks is

Terrestrial Water Storage Changes of Qinghai Lake on the Tibetan Plateau From Joint Inversion of GNSS and InSAR Data

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract Although geodetic techniques like Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment have been widely applied to investigate terrestrial water storage (TWS) variations at regional or basin scales on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) caused by global warming, their coarse spatial has limited the study of individual lakes. In this study, we overcome this limitation

Strong aftershocks traffic light system: A case study of the 8 January 2022 MS6.9 Menyuan earthquake, Qinghai Province, China

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Strong aftershocks, especially the disaster-causing M≥5.0 kind, are a key concern for mitigation of seismic risks because they often lead to superimposed earthquake damage.

The Deformation Response of Hydrological Loading Due To Water Level Changes in Qinghai Lake

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract Over the past 18 years, the water level of Qinghai Lake has risen by more than 4 m, resulting in a total mass increase of approximately 22 Gt. This increase may have impacted the surface deformation and fault activity within a 100 km radius of the lake.

Mechanism and Characteristics of Jishixiongguan Failure Induced by Jishishan MS6.2 Earthquake, China

Shock and Vibration, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
On December 18, 2023, the Jishishan MS6.2 earthquake caused serious damage to Jishixiongguan, China, which is a rammed‐earth city wall, and was about 14 km away from the epicenter. There was a large area of collapse and part of the vertical ramming overlap separation phenomenon.
