The tectonic stress field in Tengchong volcano areas is oriented as NNE-NE-NEE, nearing horizontal compr essive stress field.

腾冲火山区主要为北北东—北东—北东东，接近水平的压。

As is well known the regional tectonic stress field is of great importance to the study of seismogenesis, earthquake prediction and earth dynamics.

区域对于研究地震成因、地震预报和地球动学都具有重要的意义。
