Phenocryst or not? Using a stratovolcano’s crystal cargo to explore crustal-scale magmatic systems through time Open
Phenocrysts in magmas are often assumed to be the product of crystallization directly from a host magma. However, decades of research suggests that crystals carried in magmas (crystal cargo) are far more complex. We test the hypothesis tha…

New Magnetotelluric Data Reveal Deep Fault Boundaries and Contrasting Late Cenozoic Fault Kinematics Between the Qilian Shan Thrust Wedge and Beishan‐Alxa Block, Western China Open
The structural connectivity and kinematic relationship between the Altyn Tagh sinistral strike‐slip fault (ATF) and Qilian Shan fold‐and‐thrust belt along the north Tibetan margin east of 96°E is an important question for tectonicists inte…
Late Cenozoic Crustal Reactivation of the North Tibetan Foreland, Western Hexi Corridor, Beishan, and Gobi Corridor: Implications for Intraplate Fault Networks, Mountain Building Processes and Earthquake Hazards in Slowly Deforming Regions of Central Asia Open
The active deformation field between northern Tibet and central Mongolia is dominated by diffuse sinistral transpressional reactivation of the southern Altaids Phanerozoic terrane collage.   The angular relationship between …

Late Miocene to Quaternary Development of the Jiujing Basin, Southern Beishan Block, China: Implications for the Kinematics and Timing of Crustal Reactivation North of Tibet Open
We present results from a multidisciplinary investigation of the Jiujing fault (JJF) system and adjacent Jiujing Basin in the southern Beishan block, western China. Structural and geomorphological fieldwork involving fault and landform inv…
Poly-phase structural evolution of the northeastern Alxa Block, China: Constraining the Paleozoic-Recent history of the southern Central Asian Orogenic Belt Open
The Alxa Block is a significant tectonic unit in the middle part of the southern Central Asian Orogenic Belt that was affected by multiple Paleozoic and Meso-Cenozoic deformation events. In this study, the results from detailed mapping and…
Folded Basinal Compartments of the Southern Mongolian Borderland: A Structural Archive of the Final Consolidation of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt Open
The Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) records multiple Phanerozoic tectonic events involving consolidation of disparate terranes and cratonic blocks and subsequent reactivation of Eurasia’s continental interior. The final amalgamation of …
