The Great Wenchuan Earthquake of 2008S： A Photographic Atlas ofSurface Rupture and Related Disaster focuses on the main deformationcharacteristics of co-seismic surface rupture， including rupture length andslip distribution of co-seismic surface rupture caused by the WenchuanEarthquake and its associated relief operation. The magnitude Ms 8.0（Mw 7-9） Wenchuan Earthquake occurred on 12 May 2008 in the LongmenShah region of China， the topographical boundary between the TibetanPlateau and the Sichuan Basin， resulting in extensive damage throughoutcentral and western China. This atlas contains distinct photographs obtainedduring the field investigation carried out immediately 2 days after thequake. The atlas is designed for geologists， seismologists and architectureengineers engaged in seismic mechanisms and surface rupture deformationcharacteristics of large intracontinental earthquakes.
