古地磁综述:青藏高原东北的旋转变形
Paleomagnetism can quantitative determine tectonic rotations around a vertical axis and test geodynamic models concerning the kinematics of the India-Asia collision.However,so far paleomagnetic studies in the northeastern (NE) Tibetan Plateau are still difficult to relate tectonic rotations to regional geodynamics,due to poor age control and some discordant paleomagnetic results on the studied rocks.For example,paleomagnetic data from the west NE Tibetan Plateau are contradictory,in that they are being used as arguments for significant (clockwise or counterclockwise) and insignificant rotations of the region;whereas data from east of the plateau are marred by a lack of comprehensive understanding as to the timing and geographic distribution of significant clockwise rotations of ~25 degree,such as mid-Miocene rotations of the Guide Basin and Eocene-Oligocene rotations of the Longzhong Basin.Recent three magnetostratigraphic based rotation studies around the NE Tibetan Plateau has successfully revealed rotation variations through time (Wang et al.,2011;Yan et al.,2012;Zhang et al.,2012),all indicating existences of multiple rotation patterns during the late Neogene.Given recent large amount of magnetostratigraphic results and the possible existence of multiple changes in the sense and magnitude of rotation of the northeast Tibetan Plateau during Neogene,average declinations were calculated for every 100m of well dated magnetostratigraphy sections from the Kunlun,Qaidam,Chaka,Linxia,Tianshui and Liupanshan basins,combined with the published results of the Jiuquan and Guide basins,to discuss the Neogene rotations of the northeast Tibetan Plateau.The analyses indicate that significant rotations did exist around the northeast Tibetan Plateau:(1)an overall pattern of clockwise rotation within the northeast Tibetan Plateau,but more or less counterclockwise rotation outside of the plateau;(2)significant rotations since~11-8Ma,and with accelerated rotations or switch of rotation patterns since ~5-3Ma;and(3)the magnitude of clockwise rotations decreases from the west(Qaidam and Guide Basins) of ~25°to the east (Linxia and Tianshui Basins)of ~10°,while those outside of the NE Tibetan Plateau or close to the major faults the magnitude is generally large(>20°-30°)and with some complicated rotation history。
