摘要
Co-seismic strain changes of the Wenchuan MwT. 9 earthquake recorded with three four-component borehole strainmeters showed NW-SE and roughly EW extensions, respectively, at two locations in the interior and northern part of Tibetan plateau, and NS shortening at a location south of the epicenter, in agreement with the tectonic stress field of this region retical values obtained with half-space effects, such as local crustal structure The observed values of as much as 10-7 are, however, larger than theo- and spherical-earth dislocation theories, implying the existence of other and initial stress.
