Carboniferous Barrovian to Permian Buchan‐type metamorphic cycles in the Mongolian Altai Zone: Implication for pressure cycles in accretionary orogens

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 42, Issue 7, Page 979-1033, September 2024.
Abstract In the Altai Accretionary Wedge, several periods of Barrovian‐ and Buchan‐type metamorphic cycles were dated from Ordovician to Permian. However, the timing and link between these cycles are not clear, and their causes are debated. In order to contribute to the understanding of Barrovian‐ to Buchan‐type evolution of the accretionary wedges, we

A Refined Supply‐Demand Framework to Quantify Variability in Ecosystem Services Related to Surface Water in Support of Sustainable Development Goals

Earth's Future, Volume 12, Issue 5, May 2024.
Abstract As water‐related ecosystem services (WRES) encounter unprecedented threats with climate change and human activities, it is important to understand the impact of variations in the supply and demand for WRES on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Environmental DNA reveals the ecology and seasonal migration of a rare sturgeon species in the Ural River

Environmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 2, March–April 2024.
Environmental DNA technology has been used to identify rare sturgeons in the Ural River. The study found sturgeons at all sites in spring and autumn, confirming their semi‐anadromous ecology. This is the first documented eDNA detection of sturgeon specimens in the Ural River.

Classification and mechanism of spring and summer floods in northern Xinjiang from 2006 to 2011

Atmospheric Science Letters, Volume 25, Issue 2, February 2024.
Proportion of three types of flood events in different months (orange: rainstorm‐type floods; blue: warming‐type floods; green: mixed‐type floods). In this study, floods that occurred in northern Xinjiang from 2006 to 2011 were divided into three categories: rainstorm type, warming type, and mixed type.

Structural Interactions Between Deep Mesozoic Strike‐Slip Faults and Shallow Cenozoic Contractional Folds in the Northern Tianshan Foreland Basin (NW China)

Tectonics, Volume 43, Issue 2, February 2024.
Abstract In the rejuvenated mountain front, preexisting basement structures are often reactivated and interact with the subsequent thin‐skinned deformation. How the deep structures affect the shallower ones is key to establishing the processes and mechanisms for the foreland fold‐and‐thrust system.

Viscoelastic stress change from the 1931 MW7.8 Fuyun earthquake and its impacts on seismic activity around the Altai mountains

Geodesy and Geodynamics
The 1931 MW7.8 Fuyun earthquake occurred around the Altai mountains, an intracontinental deformation belt with limited active strain-rate accumulation. To explore whether seismic activity in this deformation belt was affected by stress interaction among ...
