Abstract：GPS mwasurements can provide a high accuracy of spatio-temporal images,but there aren??t enough study about it.We use the spherical linear block theory constrained by geodetic observations from Global Positioning System (GPS)stations to es-timate fault slip rates on the Northeastern margin of Tibet plateau and spatially variable coupling on Haiyuan fault in abroad sense.The 3D geometric block model is based on the previous researches of active block.The result provides a new constraint and reference for the geodynamics of present crustal deformation and the middle-long term strong earthquake hazard study in this area.
