Rates and kinematics of active shortening along the eastern Qilian Shan, China, inferred from deformed fluvial terraces

Creator:

Hu, Xiaofei, Pan, Baotian, Kirby, Eric, Gao, Hongshan, Hu, Zhenbo, Cao, Bo, Geng, Haopeng, Li, Qingyang, and Zhang, Guoliang

Abstract:

In the eastern Qilian Shan, a flight of fluvial terraces developed along the Jinta River valley are deformed across the Nanying anticline. Four individual fluvial terraces are preserved at different elevations above the river, and higher terrace treads are draped by systematically thicker aeolian loess. Optically stimulated luminescence dating of...

Seismic strike-slip faulting and the development of the North China basin

Creator:

Chen, Wang-Ping and Nabelek, John

Abstract:

The actively subsiding North China sedimentary basin is associated with an unusually high level of seismic activity. This oil- and gas-producing basin has been the site of nine large (M ≥ 7), destructive earthquakes since 1600 A. D. An analysis of faulting during the Tangshan earthquake sequence, which includes some...
