摘要
In this paper, the Tibetan Plateau was divided into the following tectonic units: 1） the central Tibetan Plateau including east Kunlun, Bayanhar-Songpanganzi, Qiangtang, and north Lhasa areas; 2） the Gangdise-Himalayan main subduction-collision belts consisting of Gangdise Andes-type subduction belt and the Himalayan-type collision belt; 3) surrounding transpressional orogenic belts characterized by thrusting and strike-slip faulting which include Western Kunlun-Altyn-Qilian transpressional belts in the north, Longmenshan-Jinpinshan belt in the east, Sino-Burma belt in the southeast, India-Pakistan-Afghanistan belt in the southwest; and 4) lateral extrusion terrains including South Songpan, Lanping, Baoshan and Tenchong terrains bounded by large-scale strike-slip faults.
