Wenchuan earthquake: response of Chinese dental professionals [PDF]

British Dental Journal, 2009
On 12 May 2008, an earthquake with a magnitude of 8.0 on the Richter scale hit Wenchuan, China. In the aftermath of this natural disaster, Chinese dental professionals actively participated in the first emergency medical response team, definitive dental treatment, oral health services and education, and the recovery of local oral care infrastructure ...

Compositional, mechanical and transport properties of carbonate fault rocks and the seismic cycle in limestone terrains: A case study of surface exposures on the Longmenshan Fault, Sichuan, China [PDF]

, 2015
Destructive earthquakes are common in tectonically active regions dominated by carbonate cover rocks. The catastrophic Wenchuan earthquake that struck Sichuan, China, also affected a section of carbonate cover terrain.

Medium-Term Earthquake Forecast Using Gravity Monitoring Data: Evidence from the Yutian and Wenchuan Earthquakes in China

International Journal of Geophysics, 2012
Gravity changes derived from regional gravity monitoring data in China from 1998 to 2005 exhibited noticeable variations before the occurrence of two large earthquakes in 2008 in China—the 2008 Yutian (Xinjiang) Ms=7.3 earthquake and the 2008 Wenchuan ...

Hillslope memory and spatial and temporal distributions of earthquake-induced landslides [PDF]

, 2013
Large earthquakes commonly trigger widespread and destructive landsliding. However, current approaches to modeling regional-scale landslide activity do not account for the temporal evolution of progressive failure in brittle hillslope materials ...

Effects of healing on the seismogenic potential of carbonate fault rocks: Experiments on samples from the Longmenshan Fault, Sichuan, China [PDF]

, 2015
Fault slip and healing history may crucially affect the fault seismogenic potential in the earthquake nucleation regime. Here we report direct shear friction tests on simulated gouges derived from a carbonate fault breccia, and from a clay/carbonate ...

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after an earthquake experience: A cross-sectional survey of Wenchuan earthquake victims with physical disabilities 10 years later

, 2022
Background: Natural disasters such as earthquakes are highly associated with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 was the worst earthquake in the modern history of China, but the long-term prevalence of PTSD among ...

Cretaceous Spatiotemporal Variations in Tectonic Shortening Directions in the Longmen Shan Tectonic Belt and Geodynamic Implications: Constraints From AMS Fabrics and Crustal Rotation in the Western Sichuan Basin

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract As a major tectonic boundary along the eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, the Longmen Shan tectonic belt (LMSTB) underwent pronounced crustal shortening and thickening during the Cretaceous. However, the spatiotemporal evolution of Cretaceous shortening and the boundary's response to far‐field tectonic forcing remain incompletely resolved.
