Abstract Ocean-Continent Transition (OCT) located between the edge of the continental and
unequivocal oceanic crusts is an ideal laboratory to understand one of the most fundamental …

Abstract The South China Sea, which is located to the southeast of Eurasian continent,
developed as the result of intra-continental rifting and seafloor spreading on the South …

Abstract The northern South China Sea (SCS) margin developed on a thinning crust
comprising basement-involved structures inherited from the post-orogenic extension of the …

Fault activities in sea areas always produce devastative marine geohazards. For marine
geohazard assessment, it is important to know the location, geometric structure, and activity …

We present a new extensional tectonic model for the Cenozoic history of SE Asia and the
opening of the South China Sea (SCS), proposing a feedback mechanism by which …

The joint tectonic interaction to the Pearl River Mouth Basin (PRMB) between the collision of
the Indo-Australia and Eurasian plates and the subduction of the Pacific Plate (the Philippine …

Abstract In the Cenozoic, the East Asian Continental Margin developed intense rifting,
producing massive rift basins and marginal seas. Among these, the South China Sea (SCS) …

Crustal instability to induce the geohazards often results from both the internal tectonic
dynamics and external sediment processes. Thus, the detailed geodynamics and kinematics …

Anomalous uranium enrichment has been notably observed in the Mesozoic-Cenozoic
terrestrial basins of Northern China, prompting a critical discussion of the driving force …

Abstract The Pearl River Mouth Basin (PRMB) experienced multi-phase rifting and complex
tectono-sedimentary evolution during the Cenozoic, and is a topic of many studies regarding …
