Abstract: Abstract Since the Late Cenozoic, the central-southern Longmen Shan (LMS) region is characterized by a two-decollement thrust-fold system with a localized upper evaporite weaker layer just beneath the Sichuan Basin and the lower stronger decollement… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Fold and thrust belts (FTBs) accommodate tectonic convergence through folding and faulting of crustal rocks during a collisional event between two continental plates. Although evidence of distributed deformation is common in FTBs that usually… read more here.
