Widespread rotations of maximum compressive stress in the upper crust are revealed in
eastern Tibet by the focal mechanism stress inversion technique. Because of the good …

The northeastern margin of Tibetan plateau is controlled jointly by several tectonic blocks
and shows complicated geophysical and geological characters. In the paper, the data from …

The Haiyuan fault is a large strike-slip fault in the northeastern (NE) margin of the Tibetan
plateau. Using new data recorded by a temporary seismic array, this study obtains crustal …

Vertical to subvertical planes of shear within the active crustal deformation field in Tibet align
with fast directions of shear-wave polarization. This observation suggests that the present …

Remarkable V‐shaped conjugate strike‐slip faults extend along the Bangong–Nujiang
suture in central Tibet. Motions of these faults are considered to accommodate ongoing east …

Abstract The southeastern Tibetan Plateau (SE Tibet), located between the Eastern
Himalayan Syntaxis and Sichuan Basin, is a heterogeneous structure combining different …

SUMMARY The Northeastern Tibetan Plateau has thickened crust and is still undergoing
strong active crustal shortening and deformation. Crustal anisotropy can provide clues to …

The youngest deformation structures on the Tibet Plateau are about NNE-trending grabens.
We first combine remote-sensing structural and geomorphological studies with structural …

The northeastern Tibetan plateau (94 E—105 E, 32 N—40 N) is the front edge of expansion
of this vast high land, which is crucial for understanding the evolution of the plateau. We …

Knowledge about seismic anisotropy can provide important insight into the deformation of
the crust and upper mantle beneath tectonically active regions. Here we focus on the …
