Abstract The East Asian continent records a complex geologic and tectonic history that
involved the amalgamation of several small-to medium-sized blocks from Laurasia or …

The current structural model for the Longmen Shan (Mountain) belt, which is peripheral to
the Eastern Tibetan Plateau, is an asymmetric orogenic wedge with a series of northwest …

Shear-wave splitting provides insight into geodynamic processes such as lithospheric
deformation and upper mantle flow. This study presents shear wave splitting parameters …

We present a three‐dimensional electrical resistivity model of the crust and upper mantle
beneath the easternmost Kunlun fault (EKLf), obtained by three‐dimensional inversion of …

Reconstructing the deformation sequence and strain history of the Longmen Shan thrust belt
(LSTB) has significant implications for the growths of the SW Qinling orogenic belt and the …

Abstract Knowledge of how strain is partitioned and accommodated in crustal shortening
provides fundamental constraints on evaluating tectonic models of orogenic plateaus. A …

Central Asia hosts the most extensive and highest topography on Earth, which is the result of
the feedbacks among rock uplift, atmospheric circulation and moisture transport, and …

Landscape evolution is controlled by tectonic strain, bedrock lithology, and climatic
conditions, and is expressed in the spatial and temporal variations of river channel networks …

The Panxi tectonic belt is located in the transition zone between the Tibetan Plateau and the
Yangtze Block and is characterised by~ N–S-trending faults and active earthquakes, which …

Abstract The NE striking Longmen Shan Thrust Belt (LSTB) forms the northeastern margin of
Tibetan Plateau and merges northward with the southwestern Qinling orogenic belt. The …
