The Taichung Domain was moving northwestwards before the 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake: in the footwall of Chelungpu Fault the slip rate was ~10 mm/yr, while in the hanging wall the rate increased eastwards up to 10-30 mm/yr. Two years prior to the earthquake, in the footwall of Changhua Fault the deformation direction changed from WNW to almost due N, and velocity gradient changed from increasing northwards to increasing eastwards, suggesting possible precursor of a large earthquake.

中部地区在集集地震前大致向西北方向位移，车笼埔断层下盘位移速率约在10 mm/yr左右，断层上盘往东侧逐渐增大，在10~30 mm/yr之间；集集地震发生前2年，彰化断层下盘的位移方向由西北西转为偏北的位移型态，位移速度则由南向北增大，转为由西向东增大的趋势；即位移方向与位移速度有明显的改变，可能为地震前兆的相关资讯。

As for coseismic deformation of Chi-Chi earthquake, the footwall of Chelungpu Fault moved southeastwards 0.3-1.5 m, and the value was increasing toward the fault; the hanging wall moved northwestwards 1.4-7.0 m, but the value was smaller south of the Choshui River. After the Chi-Chi earthquake, the hanging wall of Chelungpu Fault was still moving west-northwestwards and kept uplifting, while the footwall gradually changed direction from ESE to WSW or even WNW, clockwise resuming to inter-seismic deformation pattern. It is interesting to notice that despite the largest coseismic deformation in the northernmost segment of Chelungpu Fault, the post-seismic deformation peaked around the epicenter of Chi-Chi earthquake.

集集地震之同震变形，在车笼埔断层下盘向东南方向位移0.30~1.5 m，且越靠近断层位移量越大；车笼埔断层上盘则向西北方向大幅位移约1.4~7.0 m，浊水溪以南的位移量较小；集集地震以后之震后变形型态，以车笼埔断层为分界，上盘在震后向西北西方向位移的型态仍与同震时相同，下盘由同震时一致性的向东南东方向，逐步向西北西或西南西方向位移，亦即在车笼埔断层下盘有逐步依顺时针方向回归至震间的滑移型态；另就位移速率而言，虽然同震变形最大地区在车笼埔断层北端，但其震后的变形量最大地区，却集中於震央位置附近；就地震循环而言，震后的6年期间仍处於地层压密重整阶段，尚未回归至该区震间阶段的位移状态。

The result shows that the crustal deformation is changing a lot in NW China: the deepest Moho is beneath the conjuction of west Kunlun and Karakorum, about 90 km deep, the shallowest Moho is beneath Jayir mountain to the west of Karamay, about 35.5 km; the Moho depth in the western segments of Tien shan is deeper then the mindle and eastern segments; there are Moho offset beneath Altyn fault, central Tien Shan northern margin fault and so on.

结果表明：比起我国其他地区，西北地区莫霍面无论是埋深还是形态均变化最大，反映出受印度板块与欧亚板块碰撞影响，西北地区地壳整体变形强烈。莫霍面最深（约90 km）位于西昆仑与喀喇昆仑构造结合处，最浅处位于准噶尔盆地西缘的克拉玛依（约35.5 km），最深与最浅差约55km。在盆山结合部位及大型走滑断裂，如阿尔金断裂、中天山北缘断裂带等均存在莫霍面错断。
