AbstractIntegrating newly‐processed Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) and available Global Positioning System (GPS) data, we obtained a dense interseismic velocity field across the Tuosuo Lake segment of the Kunlun fault. Using a Bayesian approach, we obtained the spatial distribution of fault slip and coupling. The slip rate below the locking depth, which represents contemporary steady‐state faulting, demonstrates an overall decrease, and decreases non‐monotonically toward the eastern fault tip in the range of ∼5–11 mm/a. Two strongly locked zones are identified, extending 100–120 km along‐strike and being separated by narrow sections of moderate coupling. These locked zones were likely ruptured during the 1937 M 7.5 Huashixia earthquake. The estimated moment accumulation rate provides a recurrence time of 428 ± 57 years for an earthquake similar to the 1937 event. The Maduo Mw 7.3 earthquake on 21 May 2021 imposed stress loading on the locked zones, equivalent to tectonic loading of ∼10 years, implying increased seismic hazard along the Kunlun fault.
