摘要
The rheological study of granulite from continental lower crust is one of the scientific problems, which reveals the crustal deformation,crust-mantle exchange,and deep lithosphere dynamic process. This paper introduces research progress of the rheological relationship between regional tectonics (the extrusion of material beneath the orogenic belt) and lower continental crust flow and their controlling factors, taking the example of the relationship between lower crustal flow from Tibetan Plateau and the high temperature plastic rheology of granulite under continental lower crust. The rheological study of multiphase granulite is the scientific basis for discussion on the continental lower crust deformation and its strength.
