Spatiotemporal evolution of the Jehol Biota: Responses to the North China craton destruction in the Early Cretaceous [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2021
Significance The Early Cretaceous Jehol Biota is a terrestrial lagerstätte that produces exquisitely preserved fossils that have furnished enormous evidence on the origins and early evolution of diverse vertebrate groups.

Sedimentary environment and depositional evolution of the Mesoproterozoic Bingmagou Formation on the southern margin of the North China Craton [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
The Precambrian sedimentary strata on the southern margin of the North China Craton are well developed and widely exposed, making the region ideal for the study of depositional processes. However, because of the length of the depositional history and the

A Paradigm Shift: North China Craton's North Margin Orogen Is the Collisional Suture With the Columbia Supercontinent

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
In a new study, Wu, Wang, Zhou, Zhao, Haproff, et al. (2022, https://doi.org/10.1029/2022GC010662) present a comprehensive study of the North Margin Orogen of the North China Craton (NCC), showing that older accreted rocks in this belt preserve a record ...

Meso-Neoproterozoic tectono-thermal evolution in the northern margin of North China Craton: Constraints from zircon (U-Th)/He ages

open access: yesDizhi lixue xuebao, 2022
Due to the complicated tectonic and sedimentary history and the lack of effective paleo-thermal indicators, the Meso-Neoproterozoic thermal history of the Yanliao rift zone in the northern margin of the North China Craton is ambiguous, which causes the ...

Craton Destruction Induced by Drastic Drops in Lithospheric Mantle Viscosity

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2022
The disruption of the mantle roots of cratons is common after cratonization. Craton destruction, which is characterized by severe lithospheric thinning, extensive thrust and extensional deformation, basin filling, and intense thermal activities, is ...

Effect of rheological heterogeneities on the lithospheric deformation of the Tibetan Plateau and neighbouring regions

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The Tibetan Plateau, induced by the India-Eurasian collision, has the highest average altitude in the world. During its uplift vertically, the Tibetan Plateau has been considered to expand laterally.

Eoarchean to Paleoproterozoic Crustal Evolution in the North China Craton [PDF]

open access: yesGoldschmidt Abstracts, 2020
<p>The early evolution of continental crust, particularly its lower layer, during the first 2.0 billion years of Earth history remains enigmatic. Here, we present the first coupled in-situ U-Pb, Lu-Hf and O isotope data for the Precambrian zircons from fourteen deep-crustal xenoliths from five localities in the North China craton.
