Uplift mode in <strong>Tibet</strong> III<br />
Injection “ Lift” Model: India lower crust is injecting<br />
into middle layer of <strong>Tibet</strong> crust , proposed by Zhao &<br />
Morgan 1987<br />
1 <strong>The</strong> India upper mantle<br />
is detached from overlying<br />
crust <strong>and</strong> sinking into<br />
asthenosphere<br />
North<br />
South<br />
2 <strong>The</strong> Indian crust is<br />
injecting into weak layer<br />
of <strong>Tibet</strong> crust <strong>and</strong><br />
weakening with reheating<br />
Upper crust is lifted<br />
up step by step<br />
Injecting, then<br />
steadily heating<br />
3 <strong>Tibet</strong> on wholesale is<br />
lifted hydrostatically <strong>and</strong><br />
reach ultimately to the<br />
maximum elevation<br />
Himalayas<br />
the weakened crust is<br />
flowing horizontally in the<br />
channel
