Abstract Formation of the Tibetan Plateau is generally ascribed to the Cenozoic India–Asia
collision. However, the origin of along-strike deformation of the Indian mantle lithosphere …

As an important tectonic block in East China, the South China Block (SCB) plays a key role
in coordinating the subduction of the Paleo-Pacific Plate and the plate reconstruction in the …

This study, via combined analysis of geophysical and geochemical data, reveals a
lithospheric architecture characterized by crust–mantle decoupling and vertical heat-flow …

The current lithospheric root of the South China Block has been partly removed, yet what
mechanisms modified the lithospheric structure remain highly controversial. Here we use a …

High‐resolution seismic model is crucial for advancing our understandings on geological
processes and enhancing seismic hazard mitigation programs. We construct a high …

Intracrustal low-velocity zones (LVZs) indicate a mechanically weak crust and are widely
observed in the southeast margin of the Tibetan Plateau. However, their spatial distributions …

Abstract Southeastern Coastal China, located at the southeastern margin of the Eurasian
continent, is an essential part of the South China Block. It is characterized by extensive …

Abstract The Xuefeng Orogenic Belt (XFOB), located in the central part of the South China
Block, is a typical Mesozoic intracontinental orogen in the central Jiangnan Orogenic Belt …

To clarify the deep structure of the Taiwan Orogen formed by the collision between the
Eurasian and the Philippine Sea plates, we determine a robust 3-D shear-wave velocity (Vs) …

Joint inversion of multiple geophysical data is an effective means of overcoming the non-
uniqueness. We develop a joint inversion method for using body wave travel times and …
