Thermochronological markers reveal Late Cretaceous strike-slip faulting in the Yangtze Block, South China
Abstract Detecting strike-slip tectonics using thermochronology is challenging because the complex relative motion between fault blocks often does not substantially displace the vertical stratigraphy provided by thermochronological ages.Here we investigate the strike-slip tectonics in the Yangtze Block, South China, based on an original conceptual
