摘要

In this study, the locking degree of the Longmenshan fault and the strain rates in the Longmenshan region before the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake are inverted from the GPS horizontal velocity field between 1997 and May, 2008 using the negative dislocation theory. The inversion results show that the Longmenshan fault was nearly completely locked before the Wenchuan M(w)7.9 earthquake. The mean coupling degree of the Longmenshan fault from the surface to 25 km depth is 0. 972 +/- 0. 222, and the slip deficit is about 3 mm "a'. The detachment of Longmenshan that was nearly fully locked provided the energy for the Wenchuan earthquake rupture at depth. With consideration of the fault coupling, crustal strain slowly accumulated near the fault, more obviously at the northwest of the fault. The principal tensile strain rates near the fault range from 3. 4 to 9. 6 nanostrain . a(-1) and the principal compressive strain rates range from -2. 5 to 7. 1 nanostrain . a-1, respectively.
