Late Cretaceous–Cenozoic thermal structure and exhumation of the Eastern Tibetan Plateau margin: A doubly-vergent orogenic wedge
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 …

Linkage of deep lithospheric structures to intraplate earthquakes: A perspective from multi-source and multi-scale geophysical data in the South China Block
The relationship between intraplate earthquakes and intraplate deformation is one of the
great conundrums faced by plate tectonics theory. In particular, large earthquakes are more …

Eastward expansion of the Tibetan Plateau by crustal flow and strain partitioning across faults
The lateral expansion of the southeastern Tibetan Plateau causes devastating earthquakes,
but is poorly understood. In particular, the links between regional variations in surface …

Block rotation: Tectonic response of the Sichuan basin to the southeastward growth of the Tibetan Plateau along the **anshuihe‐**aojiang fault
E Wang, K Meng, Z Su, Q Meng, JJ Chu, Z Chen… - …, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
GPS field and seismic data show that the southeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau is
tectonically and seismically active. This activity is due to the southeastward extrusion of the …

Tectonic geomorphology along the eastern margin of Tibet: Insights into the pattern and processes of active deformation adjacent to the Sichuan Basin
We present a review and synthesis of the tectonic geomorphology along the eastern margin
of the Tibetan Plateau adjacent to and north of the Sichuan Basin. Re-evaluation of spatial …

Architecture of basin-mountain systems and their influences on gas distribution: A case study from the Sichuan basin, South China
The basin-mountain systems in the Sichuan basin exert major control on today's oil/gas
distribution, chiefly through their controlling influence on petroleum reservoirs preservation …

Denudational response to surface uplift in east Tibet: Evidence from apatite fission-track thermochronology
CJL Wilson, AP Fowler - Bulletin, 2011 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
East Tibet preserves broad areas of low relief that occur at elevations> 3000 m and are
dissected by major strike-slip faults that have been repeatedly reactivated since the late …

Three‐dimensional seismic velocity structure in the Sichuan basin, China
We present a new three‐dimensional velocity model of the crust in the eastern margin of the
Tibetan Plateau. The model describes the velocity structure of the Sichuan basin and …
