Abstract
Abstract The relative Euler vectors of the Pacific, Philippine, Amurian, Okhotsk, N. Honshu and South China plates or blocks are deduced from earthquake slip vectors, transform fault azimuths and spreading rates, which are consistent with new results derived from the International Terrestrial Reference Frame ITRF2000 velocity field, the velocity field of GPS stations in China and the GPS measurement data of the GEONET network in Japan. Based on the two groups of Euler vectors, analysis and comparative study of the relative motions and deformations of the tectonic blocks in East Asia reveal the present‐day motion characteristics of the blocks.
