The India–Asia collision zone is a key area for understanding continental plateau formation
and mountain building. Two fundamental questions in this context are how the …

Abstract A 180-km-long, high-resolution seismic-reflection survey that imaged the entire
crust and the uppermost mantle lithosphere was conducted across the northeastern Tibetan …

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 …

This paper reports on a study of the geometry and kinematics of numerous active faults
within the Qilian Shan-Hexi Corridor area, which has provided valuable insights into …

In an active thrust-fold belt, the drainage evolution, such as the alternation between
transverse and longitudinal rivers, will influence the surface erosion within the range and the …

Fold-and-thrust belts (FTBs) develop widely in and around active orogenic belts on Earth.
With the accumulation of structural shortening, thrust-related folds can grow by increasing …

Studies have shown that the growth of the Qilian Shan, the northeastern margin of the
Tibetan Plateau, started~ 10 Ma ago. However, when and how it expanded northwards is …

Abstract The Peshawar Basin is a part of the lower Himalayas that contains an enormous
amount of groundwater storage. The evaluation of groundwater potential in the southern …

Abstract Himachal region of Northwest Himalaya exhibits the widest structural re‐entrant in
Kangra region and significant strain partitioning along the frontal and hinterland out‐of …

We derive a slip rate for a frontal thrust in the western Hexi Corridor along the northern
Qilian Shan by combining topographic profiling and 10Be exposure dating. The active …
