Abstract: A deformation zone on the earth's surface along terrace in the Kezilesu River valley was formed by Wuqia earthquake of magnitude 7.4 in 1985. It is mainly composed of seismic scarps, seismic faults, fissures and the pressure ridges, etc. The length of the deformation zone is about 15 kilometres and the maximum width is 800 metres. The deformation zone extends in the direction of nearly east-west in the western part, and of 310-320℃ in the eastern part. The general distributional characteristic of this zone is a deformed arch which projects to northeast. The seismic fault is of different properties at the different section of the deformation zone. The thrust fault strikes to east-west and the fault plane dips to 160-210° with the angle of 30°. The maximum horizontal dip slip is about 2 metres. The normal-strike-slip fault strikes to 340-350° and fault plane dips to northeast with angle of 80-88°. The maximum right lateral offset is 1.55 metres. The strike-slip-thrust fault strikes to 280-305°and the fault plane dips to southwest with angle of about 30°. The maximum right lateral offset is 1.25 metres. Most of the compressire ridgas extends in the direction of east-wast and the maximum horizontal shortening distance is 0.4 metres.

摘要： 1985年乌恰7.4级地震在克孜勒苏河谷阶地上出现地表形变带,主要由地震陡坎、地震断层、地裂缝与挤压脊等形迹组成。长约15公里,最宽达800米。分布形态为一向东北突出的弧形形变带。逆断层走向近东西,倾向160°-10°,倾角30°左右,最大水平倾向断距约2米。正走滑断层走向340°-350°,倾向北东,倾角80°-88°,最大右旋水平位错为1.55米。走滑逆断层走向为280°-305°。倾向西南,倾角30°左右,最大右旋水平位移1.25米。挤压脊多呈东西向分布,最大缩短距离为0.4米。
