Folds are spectacular geological structures that are seen in layered rock on many different
scales. To mark 30 years of the Journal of Structural Geology, we review the information that …

Lithospheric folding is an important mode of basin formation in compressional intraplate
settings. Basins formed by lithospheric folding are characterized by distinct features in …

Geothermics is an area of geophysics that studies the thermal state and history of the interior
of the Earth. Solar heat penetrates only into the topmost layers of the Earth's crust. Diurnal …

On the South Karakorum margin, Neogene high-temperature–medium-pressure (HT–MP)
gneisses define an east–west trending thermal anomaly. These rocks have been heated …

The Songpan Ganzi Fold Belt (SGFB), SW China, was developed from a passive continental
margin into an orogenic belt with the consumption of the Paleo-Tethys. During the evolution …

The topography, velocity, and strain fields calculated from a three‐dimensional Newtonian
viscous model for large‐scale crustal deformation are generally in good agreement with …

There is increasing evidence that the Himalayan seismicity can be bimodal: blind
earthquakes (up to Mw~ 7.8) tend to cluster in the downdip part of the seismogenic zone …

Erosion influences the dynamical evolution of mountains. However, evidence for the impact
of surface processes on tectonics mostly relies on the circumstantial coincidence of rugged …

We examine the role of lithosphere folding in the large‐scale evolution of the continental
lithosphere. Analysis of the record of recent vertical motions and the geometry of basin …

Using a fully coupled numerical thermomechanical model handling strain localization,
surface processes and ultra-high viscosity contrasts (11 orders of magnitude) we test a …
