摘要
The South China Sea (SCS) is the largest marginal sea in West Pacific formed by a combined effect of the Eurasian plate, Pacific plate and India-Australian plate, and is thus considered to be a unique natural laboratory to study oceanic dynamics and tectonic evolutions (Xie et al., 2006; Luan and Zhang, 2009). Besides, the SCS contains enormous petroleum resources for its favorable conditions of oil-gas generation, accumulation and preservation. It is therefore imperative to intensively study the marine in-situ stress and its controlling factors of the SCS.
