英文摘要 | The Tibetan Plateau is located in the eastern part of the Tethys-Himalayan megatectonic domain and consists of a series of microplates that successively accreted to the southern edge of the Eurasian Continent. These microplates have undergone complex evolutionary processes during rifting, drift and collision. The gravity and magnetic anomalies show that the anomaly characteristics on the Tibetan Plateau is significantly different in the north-south direction, from the Qaidam Microplate to the Lhasa Microplate. In this paper, we apply an improved Logistic Filter method, combined with the upward continuation of gravity anomalies, to identify multi-scale tectonic boundaries in the Tibetan Plateau region. The results show that the edge detection results correspond well in space with fracture zones and suture/ophiolite zones. Also, there are clear discontinuities along both sides of the middle and western sections of the Bangong-Nujiang Suture Zone and the eastern section of the Jinshajiang-Ailaoshan Suture Zone. We refined the boundaries of five microplates, including the South and North Qiangtang and the South, Central and North Lhasa, in the southern Tibetan Plateau. Then, we analyzed the evolutionary processes of these microplates and the transformation of the types to which the microplates belonged during different historical periods by combining relevant evidences from other geological records and plate reconstruction. These microplates are strongly related to the evolutionary history of the Tethys Ocean. The closure of the Neo-Tethys Ocean triggered a large-scale orogeny between the Indo-Asian continents, and these microplates were eventually accreted in the orogenic belt. We analyze the formation patterns and boundary types of microplates in the evolutionary process and then divide into three stages, i.e., rifting-derived, accretion-derived, and subduction-derived stages. The transformation patterns of microplate types at different stages provide a new perspective for the study of the evolution of mega-orogenic belts. |
