Sharp lateral Moho variations across the SE Tibetan margin and their implications for plateau growth

Biology
1 answer:
ElenaW [278]2 years ago
8 0

The Moho beneath the Tibetan Plateau is significantly deeper than that beneath the neighboring Yangtze Craton and Indochina block.

Sudden Moho fluctuations are also observed over the southeastern plateau boundary, much like those under the eastern plateau margin. Interpret the severe Moho fluctuations over the plateau boundary as having formed during the late Miocene Tibetan Plateau extrusion southeastward. The steep Moho slope was preserved, although subsequent gravity collapse brought crustal extension and mild topographic variation.

The surrounding geosciences are particularly interested in the tectonic uplift of the Tibetan Plateau. A common paradigm for interpreting the geodynamic mechanism on the Tibetan Plateau's edge is mid-lower crustal flow. Due to the varied strengths of ding blocks, the model predicts different surface and Moho topographies across the plateau boundary, i.e., abrupt boundaries on the eastern plateau boundary and mild fluctuations in the southeastern plateau boundary.

Arrange these groups in order from most inclusive (most general) to least inclusive (most specific).
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

These groups are arranged in order from most inclusive (most general) to least inclusive (most specific) is gnathostomes, osteichthyans, lobe-fins, tetrapods, amphibians.

<h3>What is gnathostomes?</h3>

The jawed vertebrates are called gnathostomata. The phrase comes from the Greek words "jaw" and "mouth." Approximately 60,000 species make up the diversity of the gnathostome, which represents 99% of all vertebrates still alive today.

<h3>What is osteichthyans?</h3>

A broad taxonomic group of fish called osteichthyes, also known as the "bony fish," has skeletons that are predominantly made of bone tissue.

<h3>What is lobe-fins?</h3>

The taxon Sarcopterygii, also known as Crossopterygii, is made up of bony fishes noted for having lobe-finned fishes as its members.

<h3>What is tetrapods?</h3>

Four-legged vertebrates that make up the superclass Tetrapoda are known as tetrapods, which derives from the Ancient Greek (tetra-) "four" and "foot." It consists of synapsids, dinosaurs, and extinct as well as living amphibians, reptiles, and dinosaur-related birds (including mammals).
