Recent studies on seismic imaging of the Northwest Pacific and East Asian region are
reviewed. High-resolution tomographic images reveal significant lateral heterogeneities in …

Shear-wave splitting provides insight into geodynamic processes such as lithospheric
deformation and upper mantle flow. This study presents shear wave splitting parameters …

Syncontractional extension is prominent in present-day Tibet, but its origin remains
vigorously debated. Several deep-seated geodynamic processes (eg, Indian underthrusting …

Morphology of the subducting Indian lithosphere beneath Tibet is the key to understanding
the tectonic evolution of the Tibetan plateau. In the present study we determine three …

In this article we make a review of recent findings on seismic imaging of the Asian orogens
and subduction zones. High-resolution images of seismic tomography and receiver …

Over the course of the last hundred years or so, there have been countless seismic
experiments conducted under the aegis of different research programs, which have aimed to …

Of the two debated, end-member models for the late-Cenozoic thickening of Tibetan crust,
one invokes 'channel flow'(rapid viscous flow of the mid-lower crust, driven by topography …

Using Pn-wave traveltimes from three regional distance ranges we generated Pn
tomography models to investigate the 3-D nature of the uppermost mantle lid P-wave …

In the southern Tibetan plateau, which is considered to be the ongoing India–Eurasia
continental collision zone, tracing of the Indian crustal front beneath Tibet is still …

Abstract In Western Himalayan Syntaxis, the India‐Asia continental collision occurred at ca.
50 Ma, while its uplift history and exhumation mechanism are still in dispute despite decades …
