Crustal deformation of the eastern Tibetan plateau revealed by magnetotelluric imaging

TL;DR: In this paper, magnetotelluric data were used to image two major zones or channels of high electrical conductivity at a depth of 20-40 km from the Tibetan plateau into southwest China, and the electrical properties of the channels imply an elevated fluid content consistent with a weak crust.

Co-Seismic Surface Ruptures of the CE 1738 M 7.6 Dangjiang Earthquake Along the NW Continuation of the Xianshuihe Fault Zone and Tectonic Implications for the Central Tibetan Plateau

TL;DR: The role of large-scale strike-slip faults in high-elevation areas in absorbing the strain resulting from plate convergence has yet to be scientifically understood as discussed by the authors , and the Dang Jiang Fault (DJF) may provide an excellent testing ground for this question, given its high slip rate, sparse vegetative cover, minimal modification, and possible relationship with the CE 1738 Dangjiang destructive earthquake.
