Abstract: Abstract The Munsiari thrust (MT) was first recognized in northwest India within the Paleoproterozoic Lesser Himalayan rocks, but debate persists over its distinct identity and orogen-scale nature. Some researchers have included the MT within a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2022gl102700
Abstract: The East Kunlun Shan (EKLS) in northern Tibet occupies boundaries of the low‐relief topography and lower crustal low‐velocity zone in the interior plateau, making it ideal for exploring the relationship of surface deformation with underlying… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/srep44858
Abstract: Many areas of the Earth’s crust deform by distributed extensional faulting and complex fault interactions are often observed. Geodetic data generally indicate a simpler picture of continuum deformation over decades but relating this behaviour to… read more here.
