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 …

Late Miocene hinterland crustal shortening in the Longmen Shan thrust belt, the eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau
Long‐term (million year time scale) fault‐slip history is crucial for understanding the
processes and mechanisms of mountain building in active orogens. Such information …

Imaging the Northeastern crustal boundary of the Tibetan Plateau with radial anisotropy
We obtained a 3‐D crustal radial anisotropy model beneath northeastern (NE) Tibet by joint
inversion of Rayleigh and Love dispersion curves from ambient noise tomography. Positive …

Parallelism between the maximum exhumation belt and the Moho ramp along the eastern Tibetan Plateau margin: Coincidence or consequence?
Abstract Knowledge of how strain is partitioned and accommodated in crustal shortening
provides fundamental constraints on evaluating tectonic models of orogenic plateaus. A …

A downgoing Indian lithosphere control on along-strike variability of porphyry mineralization in the Gangdese belt of southern Tibet
The E-trending Gangdese porphyry copper belt in southern Tibet is a classic example of
porphyry mineralization in a continental collision zone. New zircon U-Pb geochronological …

The underestimated role of tectonics in the mid-Late Cretaceous desertification in SE Asia
The relative roles of tectonics and climate change in global and regional desertification are
not well constrained. Previous studies have emphasized the role played by climate change …
