New constraints on slip rates of the Fodongmiao-Hongyazi fault in the Northern Qilian Shan, NE Tibet, from the 10Be exposure dating of offset terraces
Abstract The Fodongmo-Hongyazi fault (FHF) is a major thrust of Northeastern Tibet,
bounding the Qilian Shan. It accommodates crustal shortening across this region and has …

Impact of an interbedded viscous décollement on the structural and kinematic coupling in fold-and-thrust belts: Insights from analogue modeling
Fold-and-thrust belts (FTBs) can be segmented both across and along strike because of
various factors including tectonic and stratigraphic inheritance. In this study, we investigated …

Denudation outpaced by crustal thickening in the eastern Tianshan
The modern high topography of the Tianshan resulted from the reactivation of a Paleozoic
orogenic belt by the India/Asia collision. Today, the range exhibits tectonically active …
