The influence of upper-plate advance and erosion on overriding plate deformation in orogen syntaxes
<p>Focused, rapid exhumation of rocks is observed at some orogen syntaxes, but the driving mechanisms remain poorly understood and contested. In this study, we use a fully coupled thermomechanical numerical model to investigate the effect of upper-plate advance and different erosion scenari...
