Abstract The 2015 M7. 2 Sarez (Pamir) earthquake occurred at the north‐west margin of the Tibetan Plateau. We use Sentinel‐1 and ALOS‐2 Synthetic Aperture Radar and Global …
Neogene, syn‐collisional extensional exhumation of Asian lower–middle crust produced the Shakhdara–Alichur gneiss‐dome complex in the South Pamir. The< 1 km‐thick, mylonitic …

Contemporary kinematic characteristics of the Pamir plateau are characterized by (a) significant NS‐shortening across the northern front,(b) EW‐extension within the Pamir and …
High‐resolution optical satellite imagery is used to quantify vertical surface deformation associated with the intraplate 20 May 2016 Mw 6.0 Petermann Ranges earthquake …
Seismologic and geologic fault‐slip data characterize the active deformation of the intramontane Tajik basin and its margins, the Tian Shan, Pamir, and Hindu Kush at the …

Abstract The Pamir Frontal Thrust (PFT) of the Trans‐Alai Range in Central Asia is the principal active fault of the intracontinental convergence zone between the Pamir and Tien …
At the northwestern tip of the India‐Asia collision zone, the Pamir orocline overrides the Tajik Depression and the Tarim Basin and collides with the Tian Shan. Currently, the Pamir's …
