New Research Progress In Geophysics And Continental Dynamics Of The Tibetan Plateau

Lithospheric geophysical exploration, structural imaging and anisotropy are the basis for the study of continental dynamics of the Tibetan Plateau. In recent years, with the advancement of deep geophysical exploration technology and inversion imaging technology, and the continuous improvement of information recognition and resolution, researches on crust-mantle structure, dynamics of collision and uplift, and deep mechanics of resource and geological hazards in the Tibetan Plateau have made remarkable progress. The 33 papers in this special issue are mainly distributed in three major research fields, i. e. the deep structure and geophysical exploration, the seismic anisotropy and deformation, the fault and seismicity. Based on the papers in this special issue, this review makes comments on research progress of geophysics of the Tibetan Plateau.
