A Simple Scenario for Explaining Asymmetric Deformation Across the Altyn Tagh Fault in the Northern Tibetan Plateau: Contributions from Multiple Faults

Asymmetric deformation has been observed along the Altyn Tagh Fault (ATF), the northern boundary of the Tibetan Plateau. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain this asymmetry, including contrasts in crustal strength, lower crust/upper mantle rheology, deep fault dislocation shifts, and dip...
