Abstract

It appears that most lakes are controlled by tension faults, as shown by the study of the shapes,size,numbers and distribution of lakes in the hinterland of the Tibetan Plateau using remote sensing. The shapes and distribution of lakes have visible regularity and are in accordance with measurement data of GPS which reflect the conditions of regional stress field. The territorial characteristics of lakes on patterns and distribution in different stress fields constitute an embodiment of different tectonic backgrounds. The fact that the lithosphere matters in middle Tibetain Plateau escaped southeastward might have been an important factor for the formation of a large number of rift lakes. The distribution regularity of lakes is a window to research on tectonics of the Tibetan Plateau, and can be used to supervise the prospecting for groundwater.
