- Abstract:

From 2000 to 2001,there was trends of potential large earthquakes in the Sichuan-Yuan region.This paper investigated the application of a new technology combining the ground deformation measurement from GPS(G)and the crustal stress measurement from Kaiser effect(K).This technology simultaneously monitored the fields of ground deformation and crustal stress using combined G-K network.Based on the constitutive law and rock mechanics criterion,the stress condition,probability,and magnitude of potential earthquake occurrence were analyzed.It concluded that the Yunnan region lacked the stress condition for large earthquakes of MS≥7.0.Northeast Yunnan was identified to have large ground deformation and earthquakes of MS6.0~7.0 that might occur in 10 years.Overall the conclusions were consistent with the actual occurrence of earthquakes in Yunnan.
