Development and Interplay of Two Orthogonal Fault Systems in the NW Qaidam Basin, Northern Tibetan Plateau
How fold and thrust belts (FTBs) evolve over time and space in a transpressional regime remains poorly understood. Based on high-resolution 3D seismic reflection data and remote sensing images, we herein present a detailed structural analysis of the Cenozoic faults in the NW margin of the Qaidam Bas...
