Cenozoic strike-slip faults in Indochina were initially interpreted as related to SE expulsion of
rigid blocks of continental crust between narrow, high-displacement strike-slip faults away …

Abstract The SE Tibetan Plateau, tectonically situated in the eastern India-Eurasia oblique
convergence zone, has experienced multiple stages of deformation since the Cenozoic …

The uplift of orogenic plateaus has been assumed to be coincident with the fluvial incision of
the gorges that commonly cut plateau margins. The Mekong River, which drains the eastern …

The southeast margin of the Tibetan plateau is characterized by deeply incised river valleys
separated by a perched low relief landscape that gently descends from the high Tibetan …

The geographic distribution of plant diversity matches the gradient of habitat heterogeneity
from lowlands to mountain regions. However, little is known about how much this …

Southeastern (SE) Tibet forms the transition zone between the high interior Tibetan Plateau
and the lowlands of southwest China. So understanding the elevation history of SE Tibet, a …

Geomorphological features are commonly used to identify potential landslides.
Nevertheless, overemphasis on these features could lead to misjudgment. This research …

Abstract The Altyn Tagh fault system defines the northwestern margin of the Tibetan Plateau
and has played a central role in its topographic rise and outward growth during the …

The birth and expansion of continental plateaus exert a strong control on our planet's climate
and the distribution and evolution of its biodiversity. It has been proposed that the Tibetan …

Understanding the tectonics that gave rise to the formation of Tibet is critical to our
understanding of crustal deformation processes. The unusual geomorphology of the …
