Abstract
After “ 5· 12” strong earthquake happened in Wenchuan, Sichuan Province, research workers from China Aero Geophysical Survey and Remote Sensing Center for Land and Resources went into action with the help of such units as the AirForce and the Headquarters of General Staff. They rapidly got access to the serious quake hit are as such as Beichuan and Wenchuan and obtained aerial remote sensing data. Based on aerial remote sensing data incombination with data from Beijing1sts mall satellites and CBERS-02B satellite, this paper describes in brief the results acquired from the investigation of barrier lakes caused by the earthquake.
