A review of the geologic history of the Himalayan-Tibetan orogen suggests that at least 1400
km of north-south shortening has been absorbed by the orogen since the onset of the Indo …

Mechanical properties of lithosphere are of primary importance for interpretation of
deformation at all spatial and time scales, from local scale to large-scale geodynamics and …

摘要喜马拉雅2 青藏高原造山带的地质历史显示出, 自从约70Ma 印度板块2
亚洲板块开始碰撞以来, 至少有1 360 km 的SN 向缩短量被喜马拉雅2 青藏高原造山带所吸收 …

Cenozoic rifts in Tibet were traditionally interpreted as a result of topographic collapse of the
Tibetan Plateau, reaching the maximum elevation that can be supported by its mechanical …

We investigate the depth distribution of earthquakes within the continental lithosphere of
southern Iran, the Tien Shan and northern India by using synthetic seismograms to analyse …

Since Vening‐Meinesz's realization that the East African Rift represented an extensional, not
compressional, feature and since the widespread acceptance of plate tectonics two decades …

The EET (equivalent elastic thickness) of the lithosphere is a measure of the integrated
lithospheric strength. It is directly related to the mechanical thickness and rheology of the …

We use a fully coupled asymmetric dynamic finite element model to study interactions
between thermomechanical behavior and surface processes during continental rift …

In this study, we investigate thermo-mechanical consequences of erosion of rift shoulders.
Conventional models imply post-rift cooling that results in subsidence and strengthening of …

This paper examines the relationship between seismogenic thickness, lithosphere structure
and rheology in central and northeastern Asia. We accurately determine earthquake depth …
