Abstract
The eastern end of the Altyn Tagh fault connects the western Qilian Shan thrust belt and its foreland basin, the Hexi Corridor, which contains numerous active faults with various strikes and kinematics. Although understanding of the geometry and kinematics of these active faults is increasing, the deformation pattern since the late Quaternary in the western end of the Hexi Corridor remains controversial. Studying the geometry and kinematics of...
