Abstract: | The devastating MS8.0 Wenchuan earthquake ruptured two large parallel thrust faults along the middle segment of the Longmenshan thrust belt.Preseismic and postseismic leveling data indicated the hanging wall of the YingxiuBeichuan-Nanba thrust fault mainly presented coseismic uplift with respect to the reference point at Pingwu county town, and the observed maximum uplift of 4.7 m is located at Beichuan county(Qushan town)which is about 100 m west of the fault scarp.The foot wall of the Yingxiu-Beichuan-Nan... |
