[HTML][HTML] Atlas of the underworld: Slab remnants in the mantle, their sinking history, and a new outlook on lower mantle viscosity
Across the entire mantle we interpret 94 positive seismic wave-speed anomalies as
subducted lithosphere and associate these slabs with their geological record. We document …

Along‐strike variation in the initiation timing of the north‐trending rifts in southern Tibet as revealed from the Yadong‐Gulu rift
A key issue in the Cenozoic evolution of the Tibetan plateau is the geodynamic drivers for
north‐trending rifting in southern Tibet. Recent studies have demonstrated an eastward …
