Deep Electrical Structure of the Qilian Orogenic Belt with Dynamic Implications for the Northeastern Margin of the Tibetan Plateau: Revealed by 3D Magnetotelluric Inversion Using Unstructured Tetrahedral Elements

AbstractWe present the results of a magnetotelluric (MT) array across the Qilian orogenic belt to elucidate the uplift mechanism of the northeastern Tibetan Plateau (Qinghai-Tibet Plateau). The array extends from the Qaidam basin in the south to the southern edge of the Alxa block in...
