The movement of a low-viscosity crustal layer in response to topographic loading provides a
potential mechanism for (1) eastward flow of the Asian lower crust causing the peripheral …

Based on a review of the surface and deep structure of the Eastern Alps, we link the timing
and the inferred displacement fields to exhumation of upper and lower crustal units of the …

The channel flow model aims to explain features common to metamorphic hinterlands of
some collisional orogens, notably along the Himalaya-Tibet system. Channel flow describes …

It is argued that the Grenville Province is a large hot long-duration orogen with a plateau in
the hinterland, remnants of which are preserved in the hangingwall of the Allochthon …

In order to understand how orogens “work,” a quantitative approach demonstrating proof of
concept is essential. Our goal is to reconcile the diverse array of tectonic features observed …

India–Asia collision resulted in crustal thickening and shortening, metamorphism and partial
melting along the 2200 km-long Himalayan range. In the core of the Greater Himalaya …

黏滞性地壳流对地壳及上地幔变形作用及动力机制, 是大陆新生代造山带的一个重要研究内容.
青藏高原中下地壳存在部分熔融或含水物质的黏滞性流体, 已为一系列地球物理及岩石学研究所 …

Rare granulitized eclogites exposed in the eastern Himalaya provide insight into conditions
and processes deep within the orogen. Sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe (SHRIMP) …

The tectonic dynamics of the Lhasa‐Gangdese terrane, southern Tibet, are still unclear and
open questions persist regarding the structure, physical properties, and rheology of the …

It is generally believed that the extrusion of SE Tibet was bounded by the dextral Gaoligong
and the sinistral Ailaoshan-Red River strike-slip shear zones from the Oligocene to early …
