As a typical intracontinental orogenic belt, the Tian Shan range is a natural lab for the
understanding of ongoing intraplate deformation and related geodynamic mechanisms …

Basement inherited structures represent a significant factor affecting thrust propagation
dynamics during the growth of fold-and-thrust belts. In this study inspirited from seismic data …

Induced earthquakes and ground displacements were seldom reported in relation to gas
injection or extraction. The Hutubi underground gas storage (HUGS) facility is the largest …

Abstract The North Tianshan orogen consists of a series of thrust faults and is the most
seismic region in China. In this paper, the characteristics of hot springs in the North …

The Hutubi underground gas storage facility in Xinjiang, China, with a maximum gas storage
capacity of 10.7 billion m3, provides a good opportunity to study seismicity potentially …

At the foreland edge of fold-and-thrust belts (FTBs), tectonic shortening could either be
accommodated by thick-skinned faulting and/or structural wedges developed near range …

The study of surface ruptures is key to understanding the earthquake occurrence of faults
especially in the absence of historical events. We present a detailed analysis of geomorphic …

Tien Shan tectonic belt has experienced intense seismicity and a series of destructive strong
earthquakes. However, earthquake triggering effects and faulting interactions in this area …

Hutubi gas field, the largest gas storage field in China, has been operated on annual
injection/extraction cycles since 9 June 2013. We study the seismicity near the gas field from …

In the rejuvenated mountain front, preexisting basement structures are often reactivated and
interact with the subsequent thin‐skinned deformation. How the deep structures affect the …
