MIDDLE CRUSTAL DUCTILE DEFORMATION PATTERNS IN SOUTHERN TIBET: INSIGHTS FROM VORTICITY STUDIES IN MABJA DOME (2010)

New detailed microscopic kinematic analyses, deformation temperature estimates, and vorticity analyses within mid-crustal rocks from Mabja Dome show a downward progression from mixedtop-N and top-S shear in chloritoid-zone rocks, through dominantly top-S shear in garnet- and kyanite-zone rocks, to solely top-S shear in staurolite-zone and deeper rocks.
