Subsidence patterns have been investigated for the effects of erosion induced uplift by means of analytical estimation. The history of the Delingha basin has been divided into four stages: 204(?)~130 Ma (SⅠ ), 130~95 Ma (SⅡ ), 67~35 Ma (SⅢ ) and 35~0 Ma (SⅣ ), recording episodic tectonics and sedimentation respectively.展开更多
