Neotectonic movement in the southern margin of the Ordos Block inferred from the Qianhe River terraces near the north of the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau

The Qianhe River flows between the Liupanshan Orogen and the Ordos Block, with the river valley controlled by the southern margin fault of the Ordos Block. Five asymmetrical terraces exist on the banks of the Qianhe River, which correspond to the five terraces of the Wei River. Each terrace is composed of alluvial deposits at the bottom beneath loess deposits, which are characterized by alternating loess (L) and paleosol (S) layers, with the basal layers of the loess deposits being S0, S1, S53, S8, and L15 from T1 to T5. The heights of the five terraces T5, T4, T3, T2, and T1 are 220 to 260 m, 130 to 160 m, 60 to 80 m, 20 to 30 m, and 8 to 10 m, respectively, above the present valley, and their ages are 1.2, 0.8, 0.5, 0.13, and 0.01 Ma, respectively. These ages are generally consistent with the several uplift periods of the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau in the medium and late stages. Therefore, neotectonic movement is the controlling factor of river terrace formation in the periphery of the Ordos Block. According to the south‐west movement of the river channel in the lower reaches of the Qianhe River, it can be estimated that the Ordos Block rotated about 20° counterclockwise in the Pleistocene.

The crustal uplift occurred at 92 Ma to 89-87 Ma in the Jiaolai Basin and at 90-86 Ma in the Luxi Block, respectively (Dmitrienko et al, 2016;Song Ying et al, 2015).

Meso‐Cenozoic Evolution of Earth Surface System under the East Asian Tectonic Superconvergence

The East Asian geological setting has a long duration related to the superconvergence of the Paleo‐Asian, Tethyan and Paleo‐Pacific tectonic domains. The Triassic Indosinian Movement contributed to an unified passive continental margin in East Asia. The later ophiolites and I‐type granites associated with subduction of the Paleo‐Pacific Plate in the Late Triassic, suggest a transition from passive to active continental margins. With the presence of the ongoing westward migration of the Paleo‐Pacific Subduction Zone, the sinistral transpressional stress field could play an important role in the intraplate deformation in East Asia during the Late Triassic to Middle Jurassic, being characterized by the transition from the E‐W‐trending structural system controlled by the Tethys and Paleo‐Asian oceans to the NE‐trending structural system caused by the Paleo‐Pacific Ocean subduction. The continuously westward migration of the subduction zones resulted in the transpressional stress field in East Asia marked by the emergence of the Eastern North China Plateau and the formation of the Andean‐type active continental margin from late Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous (160‐135 Ma), accompanied by the development of a small amount of adakites. In the Late Cretaceous (135‐90 Ma), due to the eastward retreat of the Paleo‐Pacific Subduction Zone, the regional stress field was replaced from sinistral transpression to transtension. Since a large amount of late‐stage adakites and metamorphic core complexes developed, the Andean‐type active continental margin was destroyed and the Eastern North China Plateau started to collapse. In the Late Cretaceous, the extension in East Asia gradually decreased the eastward retreat of the Paleo‐Pacific subduction zones. Futhermore, a significant topographic inversion had taken place during the Cenozoic that resulted from a rapid uplift of the Tibet Plateau resulting from the India‐Eurasian collision and the formation of the Bohai Bay Basin and other basins in the East Asian continental margin. The inversion caused a remarkable eastward migration of deformation, basin formation and magmatism. Meanwhile, the basins that mainly developed in the Paleogene resulted in a three‐step topography which typically appears to drop eastward in altitude. In the Neogene, the basins underwent a rapid subsidence in some depressions after basin‐controlled faulting, as well as the intracontinental extensional events in East Asia, and are likely to be a contribution to the uplift of the Tibetan Plateau.

Earth system includes Earth's surface system and deep Earth system. This Special Issue tries to establish a link between these two systems. It contains 46 contributions on Earth system evolution of the Pacific and Indian oceans and the South China Sea. The themes cover the relationship of ocean to continent, tectonic jumping, morphotectonics in the continental margin, back‐arc basin formation, formation of transform faults, subduction retreat, hot and cold subduction, actions of typhoons, plume‐tail‐related hydrothermal activity, sediment transportation and dynamics and others.
