Crustal structure variation along 30°N in the eastern Tibetan Plateau and its tectonic implications

Seismotectonics of the 2013 Lushan Mw 6.7 earthquake: Inversion tectonics in the eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau

“…The angle parameters were obtained from the quantitative analysis of the supporting information in Figure S4. This brittle-ductile translation zone is consistent with the previous studies [Wang et al, 2010;Yan et al, 2011]. We mapped the area of uplift resulting from coseismic deformation and found that it has a broad limb rotation in the back limb.…”

“…Previous study shows that several detachments at different levels play a prominent role in the LMS and western SCB [Lu et al, 2016]. According to the S wave velocity structure and structural analysis, a deep-level detachment (D2) is inferred to exist in the basement rocks at a depth of approximately 20 km Wang et al, 2010]. The detachments have propagated into the western SCB and have produced numerous anticlines Wang et al, 2014b], such as the Longquan Shan (LQS) anticline and Xiongpo anticline during the Cenozoic .…”

A review on the analysis of the crustal and upper mantle structure using receiver functions

“…10b should be the optimal solution. The results are similar to the previous results obtained by Wang et al (2010) and Zhang et al (2009).…”

“…They concluded that at this location, the crust is a double-layer structure, and the depth of the Moho should be 64 km. Their results are discrepant from previous studies by Wang et al (2010) and Zhang et al (2009). The reason for the discrepancy may be that the other extreme in Fig.…”

Architecture of basin-mountain systems and their influences on gas distribution: A case study from the Sichuan basin, South China

“…The Daliang Mountains are comprised by a series of N-S or NNW left-lateral faults and blocks, which share similar lithospheric structural features with the SW Sichuan basin (Cui et al, 1987;Li, 1997;Wang et al, 2010a), e.g., the crust thickness with 40-50 km in both of them. The Daliang Mountains and the SW Sichuan basin are weakly deformed and the rocks lay almost horizontally, or with low-angle inclination (Fig.…”
