Seismic moments and rates of deformation planes are poorly constrained . The
solution for the event of 1973 July 14 ( M = 7.0 ) include large components of
normal and strike - slip faulting . The seismic moments for these earthquakes (

As discussed below , we think that the average strain rate is higher and ,
therefore , we suspect that either the seismic history of Tibet is too short for it to
reveal a reliable average strain rate , or regional strain occurs largely by aseismic
slip .
