摘要
Affected by the geological structure, topographical features, formation conditions and other factors, ground fissures are well developed in Yuncheng Basin. The paper summarized the characteristics of the development of ground fissures in Yuncheng Basin, and approach to explore the genetic mechanism of ground fissures in two pronged from horst-graben and fault depression tectonic movement. It has the theoretical significance of understanding the development of ground fissures and other geological disasters, as well as providing prediction and prevention approaches to research into the characteristics, the genetic mechanism and the causing of ground fissures in Yuncheng Basin.
