Differential Erosion and Sedimentation Process at the Longmenshan Foreland Basin, Eastern Margin of the Tibetan Plateau: Evidence From Analog Experiments

Differential Erosion and Sedimentation Process at the Longmenshan Foreland Basin, Eastern Margin of the Tibetan Plateau: Evidence From Analog Experiments

We use analog experiments to investigate the influence of rapid filling of a foreland basin system during the development of a fold-and-thrust belt, in particular, the change of erosion–sedimentation along the strike in the Longmenshan foreland basin. A negative relationship between wedge geometries...
