Impact of Decelerating India‐Asia Convergence on the Crustal Flow Kinematics in Tibet: An Insight From Scaled Laboratory Modeling
Abstract The factors controlling the spatiotemporally varying deformation patterns in Tibet, a prolonged period (∼50 to 19 ± 3 Ma) of NNE‐SSW shortening, accompanied by eastward flow and orogen‐parallel extension in a later stage (19 ± 3 Ma to present‐day), are still poorly constrained. Using viscou...
