Although much work has been done on active tectonics of eastern Tibet, little is known about the Longriba fault zone and its role in strain partitioning. Whether its two sub-parallel strands (Longriqu and Maoergai faults) can rupture simultaneously in a large earthquake remains unknown. We conducted trenching combined with the...
The way of slip transformation and strain partitioning at the eastern termination of the Kunlun
fault system remains unclear, and the question of whether this fault system is an important part for
lateral extrusion of Tibetan crust is debatable. The Tazang fault is regarded as the easternmost
continuation of the...
Using microRNA array analyses of in vitro HIV-1-infected CD4(+) cells, we find that several host microRNAs are significantly up- or downregulated around the time HIV-1 infection peaks in vitro. While microRNA-223 levels were significantly enriched in HIV-1-infected CD4(superscript+)CD8(superscript-) PBMCs, microRNA-29a/b, microRNA-155 and microRNA-21 levels were significantly reduced. Based on the...
A global-scale three dimensional atmospheric transport and chemistry model was applied to simulate transpacific transport of Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) emitted from Asia. The model results were compared with observations at six monitoring sites. The annual mean and seasonal variation of transport patterns and the contributions of different Asian source regions to...
The Hi-CLIMB seismic experiment (2002-2005) operated 233 sites along an 800-km long north-south array extending from the Himalayan foreland into the Central Tibetan Plateau and a flanking 350x350 km lateral array in southern Tibet and eastern Nepal. Data from the experiment’s second phase (June 2004 to August 2005), when stations...
