Normal faulting and viscous buckling in the Tibetan Plateau induced by a weak lower crust

Flow of weak lower crust has been invoked to reconcile observed topographic gradients, uniform elevations, slow seismic velocity, and high conductivity measured in the Tibetan Plateau, with viscosity estimates of 10(16)–10(21) Pa·s. Here we investigate the dynamic response resulting from a range of...
