Is the stable Ordos block migrating as an entire block?

Under the constraint of GPS velocity field, a 3D viscoelastic modeling was realized for studying the lithosphere dynamics of North China and its adjacent area based on the comprehensive geological and geophysical data, such as 3D rheological structure, the active blocks of China, velocity structure, thermal structure, et al. The reliability of modeling results was proved high by means of a detailed comparison of the fitting of GPS velocity field and the Euler Poles. It is confirmed that in the horizontal direction the Ordos block is moving as a whole. Based on the results, the Euler Poles of Ordos block along the depth were calculated, which presents an obvious difference between the upper-middle crust and the lithosphere mantle. A gradient zone of the horizontal velocity is located in the lower crust. We can get the anti-clockwise twist of the lithosphere mantle relative to upper-middle crust through further investigation of the velocity variation along the depth at 4 sites. So by this study, although the horizontal movement of Ordos block is moving as a whole in lateral direction, a gradient velocity zone exists in the lower crust. Those results imply a ductile shear belt in the lower crust of the Ordos block.
