Abstract:By use of the thermal infrered image with the resolution of 1 km the linear fecture of Altyn fault is studied.The results show that the picture contrast between two walls of the faults is large and the topographic dissection degree on the fault sides is strong.In addition,the contrast in the west section is larger than that in the east section,it proves that the activity of the west section is stronger than that in the east one,and the comparison between the infrared radiation brightness temperature in the fault and the data of the DEM in an year period reflectes that the mean brightness temperature of the pixels of the northern side is 5-8 K higher than that of the southern side and keeps a good negtive correlation to the topography.
