Contemporary deformation and strain analysis in South Korea based on long-term (2000–2018) GNSS measurements

South Korea forms the Korean Peninsula and is considered to be tectonically more stable than the other regions of Eastern Asia. Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) sites installed in the country contribute to geoscientific studies on contemporary deformation, strain pattern, and current kinematics of tectonic blocks. In the current study, we used long-term GNSS measurements (from 1 January 2000 to 31 December 2018) to study block-wise...
