DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2019.02.006
Abstract: Abstract The Yumu Shan (YMS) fault zone at the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau is characterized by actively growing fault-related folds and northeast-vergent thrusts or buried faults. This fault zone is expressed by an… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2020.228429
Abstract: Abstract In order to clarify the weakening mechanism of quartz rocks at subseismic slip rates of 0.1–10 cm/s, we conducted two series of rotary-shear friction experiments at a normal stress of 1.5 MPa and equivalent slip rates… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2019jb018956
Abstract: We investigated whether the joint inversion of geodetic and stress direction data can constrain long-term fault slip rates in the central Apennines, and ultimately how extension is partitioned among fault slip and bulk lithosphere permanent… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2020tc006565
Abstract: A significant amount of the ongoing shortening between the Eurasian and Arabian plates is accommodated within the Zagros Fold‐Thrust Belt. However, the spatial and temporal distribution of active shortening within the belt, especially in its… read more here.

DOI: 10.1130/g38520.1
Abstract: Slip rates represent the average displacement across a fault over time and are essential to estimating earthquake recurrence for probabilistic seismic hazard assessments. We demonstrate that the slip rate on the western segment of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.2113/2021/4115729
Abstract: The Elashan fault (ELSF) and Qinghainanshan fault (QHNF), two major faults developed around the Qinghai Lake and Chaka-Gonghe basins, are of great importance for investigating the deformation model of the internal northeastern Tibetan Plateau. However,… read more here.
