Late Mesozoic Intracontinental Deformation in the Northern Margin of the North China Craton: A Case Study From the Shangyi Basin, Northwestern Hebei Province, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
During the late Mesozoic, the East Asian continent underwent a complex tectonic history due to multiple episodes of plate convergence. How the crust responds to the multiple plate convergence in the North China Craton (NCC) remains unclear.

Mechanism and Prediction of Geothermal Resources Controlled by Neotectonics in Mountainous Areas: A Case Study of Southeastern Zhangjiakou City, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The geothermal resources in mountainous areas are usually controlled by neotectonic faults. To minimize the risk in site selection for geothermal drilling, the controlling mechanism must be identified.

Fluid‐Enhanced Neotectonic Faulting in the Cratonic Lithosphere of the Nullarbor Plain in South‐Central Australia

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
The Nullarbor Plain is underlain by thick cratonic lithospheric mantle that is almost devoid of contemporary seismicity. Analysis of high‐resolution digital elevation models indicates neotectonic fault‐propagation fold traces on the nearly flat karst ...
