Present-day tangential rates in East Asia predicted by GIA model RF3L20(β=0.4)+ICE-4G and the comparison with GPS measurements (Wang et al., 2001). (a) GIA induced rotation components computed using the rotation parameters in the second column of Table 2; (b) tangential rates with rotation components removed. Vectors with arrow heads not filled are for GIA and the others are for GPS. For the latter ones, rotation components are computed and used with rotation parameters in the seventh column of Table 2. The length of the arrow is proportional to the magnitude of the tangential velocity. The length scales for the vectors are shown in the bottom of the figures.
