Journal ArticleDOI

Late Cenozoic metamorphic evolution and exhumation of Taiwan

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply this technique in addition to (U-Th)/He thermochronology on detrital zircons to assess peak metamorphic temperatures (T) and the late exhumational history respectively, along different transects in central and southern Taiwan.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rupture process of the Mw = 7.9 2015 Gorkha earthquake (Nepal): Insights into Himalayan megathrust segmentation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the rupture process of the 25 April 2015 Gorkha earthquake using a kinematic joint inversion of teleseismic waves, strong motion data, high-rate GPS, static GPS, and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mountain building in Taiwan: A thermokinematic model

TL;DR: In this paper, a new thermokinematic model of the Taiwan mountain belt reconciling existing kinematic, thermometric and thermochronological constraints is proposed, which shows that a significant contribution of underplating to the growth of the orogenic wedge is made by the most frontal faults of the foothills.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Sumatra subduction zone: A case for a locked fault zone extending into the mantle

TL;DR: In the case of the Sumatra subduction zone where the downdip end of the locked fault zone (LFZ) can be well constrained from the pattern and rate of uplift deduced from coral growth and from GPS measurements of horizontal deformation, this paper showed that the LFZ most probably extends into the mantle, implying that either the mantle is not serpentinized, or the presence of serpentine does not necessarily imply stable sliding.
