Lhasa block and bordering sutures— a continuation of a 500-km Moho traverse through Tibet

Nature, 1984

Abstract

A north-south wide-angle fan-profile through the Yarlung Zangbo suture, across the Lhasa block and through the Bangong-Nujiang suture shows several significant and sharp changes in crustal thickness. Both sutures appear as vertical 20-km steps in the Moho and may have been the loci for eastward strike-slip motion of the Tibetan lithosphere.
