Topography and distribution of measurement profiles in the eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau and Sichuan Basin. Topography data are from Global Topography V18.1 (Smith and Sandwell 1997). Black lines show the locations of measurement profiles. The beach balls show the locations and fault plane solutions of the 2008 Mw 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake and the 2013 Mw 6.6 Lushan earthquake. Yellow triangles denote cities. Red lines are faults. LQSF Longquan Shan fault, XSHF Xianshuihe fault, GAF Guanxian-Anxian fault, YBF Yingxiu-Beichuan fault, WMF Wenchuan-Maoxian fault, SC South China block, SY Sichuan-Yunnan diamond block, TP Tibetan Plateau, SG Songpan-Ganzi Block, which is part of the Tibetan Plateau. SB Sichuan Basin, which belongs to South China block. The prominent LMS fault zone is made of GAF, YBF and WMF. The red rectangle in the attached map denotes the study area within Asia
