The interplay between climate and tectonics during the upward and outward growth of the Qilian Shan orogenic wedge, northern Tibetan Plateau
Mountains grow upward and outward when the accretion of material outpaces its removal.
Mountain building is synergistically influenced by geodynamics, internal structures (crustal …
