文摘

We analyzed seismicity distributions and focal mechanisms in the northernmost LV. We found two previously unidentified reverse faults in the northernmost LV suture. Both structures connect with a detachment at ~ 10 km deep to form a major system. The Meilun fault may be part of a secondary branch of the major structural system.
