Intracontinental deformation of the Tianshan Orogen in response to India-Asia collision
How the continental lithosphere deforms far away from plate boundaries has been long
debated. The Tianshan is a type-example of ongoing lithospheric deformation in an …

Introduction to tectonics of China
The continental crust of China is a mosaic of cratonic blocks and orogenic belts, containing
small cratons and terranes with various tectonic settings. They have diverse origins and …

High-resolution lithospheric structure beneath Mainland China from ambient noise and earthquake surface-wave tomography
We present a new high-resolution shear-velocity model of the lithosphere (down to about
160 km) beneath China using Rayleigh-wave tomography. We combined ambient noise and …
