| Session Description |
Technological advances have added substantially to our ability to detect and understand various processes acting on regions of plate convergence around the globe. Through recent progress in geology, geodesy, seismology, geomorphology, geochronology, remote sensing, numerical modeling, etc., we have great opportunities, also unprecedented challenges, to better integrate multidisciplinary data sources, constrain existing tectonic/orogenic models, and propose future working hypotheses that better explain fundamental observations. In this special session, we encourage contributions from various disciplines that have the potential to provide new or integrated observations and interpretations for surface deformation, subsurface structures, basement geometry, geofluids, seismicity, the state of stress and strain, surface erosion, etc. Through sharing, integrating, and comparing these multi-source observations, we hope to gain new insights and improve our current knowledge in understanding the complex tectonic processes within convergent plate boundaries.
