Abstract

The 3D crustal movement velocities filed and strain parameters of Guangxi area are acquired in the coordinate frame of ITRF2005 with the multi-period GPS data from 1998 to 2010 analyzed by using GAMIT/GLOBK software, and the area deformation field and present-day construction mechanism are also discussed in this paper. From the GPS monitoring results, the crustal movement of Guangxi area coincides with south China movement in the South-East-East anticlockwise direction, the average vertical velocity value is 33.49 mm/a in ITRF2005 frame, the preponderant direction is N 109.3° E, the average horizon velocity value is +1.30 mm/a, and the trend becomes increasing from East to West of Guangxi province. The present-day strain status is extrusion in N 127.3°±4.8° E direction, the main maximum extrusion strain is -2.7±0.5×10-9/a with a tension effect in the N 37.3°±4.8° E direction, and the main maximum tension strain is 1.8±0.2×10-9/a. A more precise 3D present-day crustal velocity filed of Guangxi area is presented in this paper with the full analyzing of GPS data.
