Seismogenic Thickening in the Pamir Plateau From Craton Underthrusting Revealed by the 2023 Mw 6.9 Earthquake

Geophysical Research Letters
The convergence of the Indian and Eurasian plates beneath the Pamir Plateau has produced complex continental subduction, significantly influencing upper crustal faulting and seismicity.

Deep Crustal Structure Beneath the Pamir–Tibetan Plateau: Insights From the Moho Depth and Vp/Vs Ratio Variation

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The Cenozoic convergence between India and Asia has created Earth’s thickest crust in the Pamir–Tibetan plateau, leading to broadly distributed deformation and extensive crustal shortening; however, the crustal deformation of the high plateau is still ...

Evidence for Late Triassic crustal suturing of the Central and Southern Pamir

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2020
The timing of closure of the Paleotethys and Rushan ocean basins and suturing of Gondwanan crustal fragments in the Pamir is not well resolved. Whereas the Central Pamir terrane is generally interpreted to have collided with the Northern Pamir terrane at

Early Cretaceous displacement on the Tanymas thrust fault, Northern Pamir, Tajikistan, and regional tectonic implications

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2023
An ongoing question in understanding the evolution of the Himalayan-Tibetan orogeny is how much of the observed upper crustal shortening and crustal thickness is related to the Cenozoic collision between India and Asia vs earlier tectonic events along ...

Remote assessment of reserve capacity of outburst alpine lakes

Лëд и снег, 2016
Results of distant satellite sounding (the TERRA satellite) of high-mountainous areas and digital models SRTM 4.1 and ASTER DEM G2 of the same relief were used to calculate the following parameters of high-mountain dammed glacial lakes: area, depth, the ...

Metamorphic dolomitic marble-hosted talc from the Mulvoj area in the Western Pamir Mountains, Tajikistan

Mineralogia, 2023
Talc is crystallized in the metamorphic dolomitic rocks of the southwest Pamir mountains in the Mulvoj area, Tajikistan. Field studies show that talc is restricted to metamorphic dolomitic marble layers in the garnet-mica schist and gneiss.

Sedimentary Provenance Changes Constrain the Eocene Initial Uplift of the Central Pamir, NW Tibetan Plateau

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Pamir Plateau region of the Northwestern Tibetan Plateau forms a prominent tectonic salient, separating the Tajik and Tarim basins. However, the topographic evolution of the Pamir Plateau remains elusive, despite the key role of this region played in

THE MODEL OF DUST AEROSOL ACCUMULATION IN TAJIKISTAN

Geography, Environment, Sustainability, 2014
The thickest loess formations, more than 100 m, are located in China and Tajikistan. Climatic and geographical factors became the basis for development of the atmospheric aerosol accumulation model in Tajikistan.
