Characterizing the Seasonal Crustal Motion in Tianshan Area Using GPS, GRACE and Surface Loading Models
Complex tectonic and non-tectonic movements exist in the Tianshan area. However, we have not acquired good knowledge of such movements yet. In this study, we combine Global Positioning System (GPS), the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and Surface Loading Models (SLMs) data to study the seasonal vertical crustal displacements in the Tianshan area. The results show that all three ...
متن کاملFortuna Tessera, Venus Evidence of Horizontal Convergence and Crustal Thickening
Structural and tectonic patterns mapped in Fortuna Tessera are interpreted to reflect a change in the style and intensity of deformation from east to west, beginning with simple tessera terrain at relatively low topographic elevations in the east and progressing through increasingly complex deformation patterns and higher topography to Maxwell Montes in the west. These morphologic and topograph...
متن کاملAge and Origin of the Crustal Dichotomy in Eastern Mars
The topography associated with the fundamental crustal dichotomy in much of eastern Mars can be largely ascribed to a single event: the very large impact which produced the Utopia Basin. Subsequent internal and surficial processes have been unable to remove the topographic signature of this basin. In particular, endogenic processes appear to have been ineffective in contributing to the basic di...

The Neoproterozoic Quruqtagh Group in eastern Chinese Tianshan: evidence for a post-Marinoan glaciation
The Neoproterozoic Quruqtagh Group in eastern Chinese Tianshan consists of, in ascending order, the Bayisi, Zhaobishan, Altungol, Tereeken, Zhamoketi, Yukkengol, Shuiquan, and Hankalchough Formations. Diamictite units occur in the Bayisi–Altungol, Tereeken, and Hankalchough Formations. Our field observations confirm the glacial origin of the Tereeken and Hankalchough diamictites, but the glacia...
