中文摘要： 藏南地区垂直运动幅度大、机制复杂、变化剧烈，GPS观测资料基础好，是研究青藏高原垂直隆升的最佳场所。GPS虽能捕捉到地壳垂直形变，但其观测中包含构造形变和非构造形变，后者根源与性质难以准确界定，是GPS分析垂直运动的最大挑战。对研究青藏高原构造演化而言，地表质量载荷引起的非构造形变是需要剔除的噪声, GPS垂直形变中包含陆地水载荷引起的季节性及长期变化，很难通过模型化方法有效剔除，对GPS流动观测而言更为困难。GRACE可准确探测出由于陆地水质量变化引起的地壳垂直形变，有助于分析其他垂向变化信息。本项目拟利用GRACE准确估算陆地水载荷引起的季节性及长期性变化，用以校正GPS观测，特别是藏南地区大量GPS流动观测资料，从而提高垂直构造形变的精度和可靠性。该研究有助于构建区域地壳运动的三维形变场, 为分析构造隆升的分布特征、变形机制，以及建立大震震间变形模型提供更好的观测约束。

英文摘要： In southern Tibet ongoing vertical motions are caused by the the collision between India and Eurasia, characterized by a complex pattern and varying mechanism. Large numbers of GPS continuous and campaign sites were installed in Himalaya and southern Tibet, we focus on a study of vertical uplift or subsidence in the southern part of the Tibetan Plateau by performing a joint analysis of GPS and GRACE data. Vertical displacments measureed by GPS usually include tectonic deformation as well as non-tectonic time-dependent signals. The origin and nature of the transient processes can't be identified straightforward, which are reasons why any result of vertical motions inferred from GPS measurements are not be simply related to tectonic deformation. Seasonal signals (annual and semi-annual cycles) due to surface mass loading are detected in GPS postion time series. The signals are especially pronounced in vertical components. To quanitify the regional long-term deformation using GPS, seasonal elastic deformation signals assoicated with surface loading must be excluded as a source of observation noises. Surface loadings related to atmosphere and ocean, are currently modelled well. However, the hydrological redistribution on land (soil moisture, groundwater, snow and ice) is poorly constrained for most regions of the wo
