DOI: 10.1016/j.gr.2021.01.008

Abstract: Abstract Late Paleozoic – early Mesozoic geological evolution of the Kolyvan-Tomsk Fold Zone (KTFZ) located in the northwestern part of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt is significant to understanding the tectonic transition from post-collision to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2017.12.014

Abstract: Abstract Present-day deformation and seismicity of continental lithosphere are characterized by a first-order dichotomy between Plate Boundary Zones (PBZ) and Stable Continental Regions (SCR). Whereas the former are associated with high strain and seismicity rates,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-021-22323-9

Abstract: The thermochemical structure of lithospheric and asthenospheric mantle exert primary controls on surface topography and volcanic activity. Volcanic rock compositions and mantle seismic velocities provide indirect observations of this structure. Here, we compile and analyze… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41561-018-0201-x

Abstract: Intraplate earthquakes on a fault in Earth’s upper crust commonly recur in 1,000 years or longer. The 2011 M9 Tohoku-Oki earthquake triggered the activation of intraplate earthquakes in northern Kanto, Japan, including two M6 events… read more here.
