【摘要】 GPS测量技术可以在较大地区范围内获得高精度地壳形变速率。稳定的应变速率提供了精确确定地震活动率的机会。本文运用Kostrov(1 974)的公式将经平滑的华北地区应变速率转化为矩释放率 ,并与运用 1 30 3年洪洞地震以来的地震目录计算的矩释放率进行比较 ,发现两者之比南北向为 60 6% ,东西向为 68 9% ,北东剪切分量为 1 0 4 1 %。近似为 1的比率表明了GPS测量结果的可靠性。这个结果对结合历史地震及大地形变测量估计矩释放进行地震危险性评估具有一定参考意义更多还原

【Abstract】 The new GPS data can map crustal strain rates over large areas with a useful degree of precision. Stable strain indicators open the door for space geodesy to join with seismology in formatting improved estimates of earthquake recurrence. The Kostrov’s formula (1974) translates the smoothed strain rates in North China into geodetic moment rates. In North China, the ratio of seismic monent released to moment accumulated from GPS measurement is 60.6% in NS direction, 68.9% in EW direction, and 104.1% in NE shear direction. The near unit ratio points to the reliability of GPS measurements there. The combination of historical seismicity and GPS measurement offers a powerful attack on earthquake hazard.更多还原
