Abstract:Faults along the boundaries of active tectonic blocks are the main structures that are responsible for major earthquakes in mainland China. Investigating the geometric distribution, rupture behavior, and paleoseismic history of these faults is the prerequisite for constraining geodynamic models and regional seismic hazard analyses. The Nanhe Fault, located at the eastern boundary of the Sichuan–Yunnan Block near Mianning County, has been paid less attention so far due to insufficient historical records of majo… Show more
