Xu Xiwei, founding president of the National Institute of Natural Disaster Prevention and Control and professor of China University of Geosciences, analyzed the **. He pointed out that the southeast region of Gan is located on the eastern edge of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and belongs to the north-south ** belt. From the perspective of the source mechanism, this ** is a reverse fault type**, and it is speculated that the seismic fault is the fault on the northern margin of the north-north-west-trending Laji Mountain.
For the reasons for the major personnel this time, Professor Xu Xiwei believes that the main points are as follows: first, the seismic performance of the house is poor and cannot effectively resist the impact; Secondly, the population in the earthquake area is relatively dense, which makes the number of people more serious; Finally, it happened late at night, when people were resting and didn't have time to take shelter.
This time ** has brought serious human and property losses to the local area. The rescue work is in full swing, and the relevant departments have activated the emergency plan and mobilized rescue forces to rush to the disaster area. We call on all sectors of society to pay attention to the disaster situation and provide help to the people in the affected areas to the best of their ability.
At the same time, we should also recognize the seriousness of this natural disaster. In the future life, we should strengthen the awareness of earthquake prevention, improve the seismic level of buildings, and do a good job in defense. Only in this way can we minimize the losses that come with **.
Here, we express our deep condolences to the victims and sincere condolences to the injured. May the people in the disaster-stricken areas get out of their predicament and rebuild their homes as soon as possible.
