The interaction zone between southwest Tianshan and Tarim is located on the northeast side of oft-com:office:smarttags" />Pamir, it is a region with several rows of active reverse faults and active fold zones, and the Artux anticline is one of the active folds. The Boguzi River originated from a glacier in Tianshan Mountains incises the middle segment of Artux active fold.
