On September 5,2022,the Luding M6.8 earthquake occurred in the Moxi-Shimian segment of the Xianshuihe fault,coinciding with the historical ruptured zone of the 1786 Moxi earthquake.Its seis-mogenic environment provides a foundation for comprehending the mechanism of the earthquake and its future hazard.In the Moxi-Shimian segment,we establish a series of near-field Global Navigation Satellite Systems(GNSS)stations to enhance the spatial resolution of observational data for the inversion of the interseismic kinematic parameters.In this study,with an elastic screw dislocation model con-strained by GNSS observations,the slip rate of the Moxi-Shimian segment is estimated to be 10.9±1.0 mm/yr,while the locking depth is 15.7±6.2 km.Additionally,we utilize a block-dislocation model to invert the interseismic fault coupling along the Kangding-Moxi-Shimian segment.The result indicates a gradual deepening of the locking depth along the section from Kangding to Shimian.The coseismic rupture of the 2022 event occurred within the high coupling regions in the Kangding-Moxi-Shimian segment,which indicates that the rupture kinematics in this event might be controlled by the interseismic deformation.The seismic moment accumulated within the ruptured zone of the Luding earthquake since 1786 ranges in[1.42-3.40]x 1019 N·m,which is significantly greater than the seismic moment released during the 2022 event.As a result,we infer that the Luding earthquake released only a portion of the accumulated energy within the original rupture zone since 1786,indicating that the 2022 event has not caused a complete rupture in the Moxi-Shimian segment.Consequently,there remains a substantial seismic hazard in this area.
