In this joint proposal between New Mexico State University (Dr. James Ni) and The University of Arizona (Dr. Terry Wallace) we request funds for a detailed seismotectonic study of the regions around the Burma Syntaxis and intraplate mountain belts in eastern Asia. It is in pursuit of the principles governing continental deformation that this study is aimed. We are particularly interested in finding out the extent of strain occuring at various crustal levels in the compressed continental crust; the geometry of the Burma Benioff zone and its relationship to the overriding southeast Asian plate.

在新墨西哥州立大学(James Ni博士)和亚利桑那大学(Terry Wallace博士)的这份联合提案中，我们申请资金，对缅甸语法和东亚板内山脉周围地区进行详细的地震构造研究。这项研究的目的正是为了追寻大陆变形的原则。我们特别感兴趣的是找出压缩大陆地壳中不同地壳水平上发生的应变程度；缅甸贝尼奥夫带的几何形状及其与俯冲的东南亚板块的关系。
