Vertical Slip Rates of Normal Faults Constrained by Both Fault Walls: A Case Study of the Hetao Fault System in Northern China

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The slip rate is a fundamental kinematic parameter of active faults. Traditional methods using fault scarps or trenches may produce inaccurate estimates of a fault’s vertical slip rate.

U-Pb and Hf isotopic study of detrital zircons from the Wulashan khondalites: Constraints on the evolution of the Ordos Terrane, Western Block of the North China Craton [PDF]

, 2006
Detrital zircons from the Wulashan khondalites in the Ordos Terrane, western block of the North China Craton, give U-Pb ages between 1.84 and 2.32 Ga, showing that their provenance was dominated by Paleoproterozoic rocks, much younger than those exposed ...

Mapping the interactions between rivers and sand dunes: Implications for fluvial and aeolian geomorphology [PDF]

, 2014
The interaction between fluvial and aeolian processes can significantly change Earth surface morphology. When rivers and sand dunes meet, the interaction of sediment transport between the two systems can lead to change in either or both systems. However,

Characteristics of tectonic deformation in the Daning-Jixian region, eastern Ordos Basin: Implications for the exploration and development of coalbed methane

Energy Exploration & Exploitation, 2019
Eastern Ordos Basin is an important region for the development of Carboniferous-Permian coalbed methane in China; however, there are significant differences of the coalbed methane exploration and development prospects among different regions within ...

Microstructure and heterogeneity of coal-bearing organic shale in the southeast Ordos Basin, China: Implications for shale gas storage

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
In recent years, the eastern margin of Ordos Basin has attracted much attention as a key base for unconventional natural gas exploration. The pore-fracture structure is an important physical property of shale and provides places and channels for methane ...

LA-ICP-MS U-Pb geochronology of detrital zircons from the Jining Complex, North China Craton and its tectonic significance [PDF]

, 2006
LA-ICP-MS U-Pb zircon dating and cathodoluminescene (CL) image analysis were carried out to determine the protolith and metamorphic ages of high-grade Al-rich gneisses, named as "khondalites", from the Jining Complex of the North China Craton (NCC).

Lithotectonic elements and geological events in the Hengshan-Wutai-Fuping belt: A synthesis and implications for the evolution of the Trans-North China Orogen [PDF]

, 2007
The Hengshan-Wutai-Fuping belt is located in the middle segment of the Trans-North China Orogen, a Palaeoproterozoic continental collisional belt along which the Eastern and Western blocks amalgamated to form the North China Craton.

Lithofacies paleogeography of the Ordovician Kelimoli-Lashizhong formations along the western margin of the Ordos Basin

Meitian dizhi yu kantan
ObjectiveThe period during the deposition of the Middle-Late Ordovician Kelimoli-Lashizhong formations witnessed a key transition of the tectonic framework along the western margin of the Ordos Basin. Investigating the lithofacies paleogeography of these

Pore Structures of the Lower Permian Taiyuan Shale and Limestone in the Ordos Basin and the Significance to Unconventional Natural Gas Generation and Storage

Geofluids, 2022
In the Ordos Basin, multiple sets of coal seams, organic-rich shale, and limestone are well developed in the Permian Taiyuan Formation, which are favorable targets for collaborative exploration of various types of unconventional natural gas resources ...

Crustal structure and deformation beneath the NE margin of the Tibetan plateau constrained by teleseismic receiver function data [PDF]

, 2015
We analysed a large amount of teleseismic receiver function data recorded by 172 broadband stations in the NE Tibetan plateau and its surrounding areas to investigate the crustal velocity and anisotropy structure beneath the margin.
