Partitioning of oblique convergence coupled to the fault locking behavior of fold‐and‐thrust belts: Evidence from the Qilian Shan, northeastern Tibetan Plateau
Oblique plate convergence is common, but it is not clear how the obliquity is achieved by
continental fold‐and‐thrust belts. We address this problem in the Qilian Shan, northeastern …
