英文摘要 | How the Tibetan Plateau deformed in the Indian-Eurasian continental collision has been long debated, more specifically, over the relationship between the deep processes and surface structural complexity. Here, we use ambient noise tomography to obtain a high-resolution crustal S-wave velocity model beneath the Tibetan Plateau and adjacent areas involving a comprehensive dataset from over 500 sta-tions. Our images reveal that the crustal flow should be in a limited scale according to the intermittent low-velocity zones (LVZs) observed in the middle crust at 20-40-km depth of the Tibetan Plateau. The distributions and strengths of LVZs further imply that different deep processes promote the surface defor-mation in various regions of the Tibetan Plateau. The LVZs in the northern plateau, collocated potassic magmatism and low velocity anomalies in the upper mantle, should be originated from the lithospheric delamination. However, in the southern plateau, the S-wave velocity showed an apparent lateral segmen-tation feature correlated with the north-south trending rifts. The feature indicates that the LVZs were likely controlled by the lateral tearing of the subducted Indian mantle lithosphere, which promotes the rifting deformation. Moreover, the LVZ in the central Tibet should have contributed to the formation of the conjugate strike-slip fault system. In the Tarim Basin, our model showed a high-velocity anomaly in the lower crust that may be related to ancient mantle plume activity. (c) 2023 International Association for Gondwana Research.
