Outline
Tectonic Environment of Wenchuan earthquake
Tectonic Environment:
Wenchuan earthquake
occurred on Longmen
Shan thrust fault zone, it
bounds between the
Tibetan plateau and
Sichuan basin, where
the topography is high and
steep, the vegetation is
heavy. This make field
investigations very
difficult. Thus we used D-
InSAR technology to
capture the whole
coseismic deformation
fields.

SAR data and processing Method
data processing: We used 7 track pairs of
ALOS/PALSAR data (471-
477). We adopted the two-pass
differential interferometric
mode and software GAMMA
to process these SAR data and
get the whole deformation
field caused by wenchaun
earthquake .

This Fig is the InSAR mosaic interferometric fringes from 7 data tracks, it shows the coverage scope and pattern of the entire deformation field caused by the Wenchuan earthquake. But We can note along the Northeastern direction from Yingxiu to Qingchuan, There is a clear incoherent zone, showed as the belt region encircled by yellow-dash line. We can not obtain the displacement of this area by InSAR technology. But using offset tracking method ,we can get the larger displacement in incoherent zone nearby the rupture trace. Pink big circle denotes epicenter of the main shock.
InSAR mosaic interferometric fringes
As shown in previous Fig, The InSAR technique has encountered the problem of serious incoherence on interferometric phases due to large displacement gradients nearby the fault. We can get the whole picture of the surface displacement field, but we can not know some detail information about fault rupture and deformation, such as how the rupture traces extending along the fault, and how large the displacements nearby the fault. To solve this problem, we attempt to use the pixel offset tracking method, which is not limited by phase coherence and allow the big displacements nearby the fault to be measured at a better precision. Some resulting picture showed as follow Figs.
Get the larger displacement in incoherent zone around the rupture trace by offset tracking
The Fig shows the displacements of 4 data tracks (472,473,474,475), derived from pixel offset tracking in range direction, each of them exhibit a clearly almost straight NE-trending line, which reveal the rupture trace.
Rupture trace and displacement revealed by single data track
This Fig show the entire surface rupture trace mosaicked from 7 data tracks along the Yingxiu-Beichuan fault, it indicate the scope and pattern of the surface rupture zone, it starting from about 26km west to Yingxiu town, extending northeast to 7km south of Qingchuan county. The total length of rupture belt is about 238km long. In addition, Along the Guanxian-Jiangyou fault, there is also a rupture belt, it is about 66km long.
Mosaic Rupture trace and displacement from 7 data tracks
This Fig shows the segmentation of displacement along the Yingxiu-Beichuan fault in range direction .Based on features of the rupture traces, such as their straightness, integration, continuity and deformation width on either side of the fault, The entire rupture zone can be divided into 5 segments. Showed as the Seg 1 To Seg5. Seg6 is for Guanxian-Jiangyou rupture zone.This is very important and useful for fault model construction and fault slip inversion.

Table 1 Description of positions and features of each rupture segments derived from pixel offset tracking Method
The Fig shows Comparison of rupture traces from this work and rupture sites from field investigation. Red lines is rupture traces. Black dot short lines hint borders between segments. Blue, green and pink little dots are field investigation sites of Xu et al. It is obvious that the surface rupture determined by this work is well in accordance with that from the field investigation. But this result cover the entire fault and reveal a continuous rupture and its exact position, geometric variations, and segmentation along fault strike
Comparison of rupture traces and rupture sites from field investigation
This Fig shows displacements on northern side of rupture traces from pixel offset (Left) and vertical displacement from field investigation(Right: Xu et al, 2008)We can see the displacement distribution is very complex, it varied along the fault strike. Overall, the average displacement in the north of the rupture is 2.95m, individual max value is up to 7~9m. In generally, The result of this paper agree with the field investigation.

This Fig shows displacement profiles in Beichuan and Dujiangyan respectively across the YBF, it indicates the largest displacements for the entire rupture zone is about 6m in up side and 2m in down side of the seismic fault
(a) East of Beichuan.
(b) North of Dujiangyan
Displacement profiles
By pixel offset tracking, we can reveal surface rupture traces and large displacements nearby seismic fault. This is a good supplement to conventional InSAR method. The result from pixel offset tracking shows that the wenchuan earthquake has created a 238km-long surface rupture zone along YBF. The average displacement is about 2.95m and 1.75m , respectively on northern and Southern side, Nearby Beichuan and north of Dujiangyan, the deformation is great and complex. In terms of the rupture pattern and deformation widths on either side, the YB rupture zone can be divided into 5 segments. Along the GJ fault, there is a 66km-long rupture belt, with 2m displacement, but no visible rupture traces . At Xiaoyudong, there is a 8km long NW-directed deformation belt, it offsets the NE-trending Yingxiu-Beichuan rupture zone in left-lateral manner.
