Summary:This article reports 21 AFT (apatite fission track) data from the West Shandong (山东) rise (WSR) and Jiyang (济阳) depression, and mainly studies their Cenozoic uplifting/subsidence history and the relationship between them. Furthermore, we improve our insights into the Bohai Bay Basin (BBB). Our AFT analysis and AFT T-t modeling indicates that the WSR was uplifted at ca. 65 Ma with apparent uplift rate of 0.019 mm/a; it underwent two relatively rapid uplifting events at 43-33 and 16-0 Ma with rates of 0.097 and 0.052 mm/a, respectively. Meanwhile, the Jiyang depression subsided at rate of 0.032 mm/a at 52-43 Ma, and the rate increased to 0.13 mm/a at ca. 42-33 Ma; finally the subsidence rate increased to 0.053 mm/a in 16-0 Ma. They all underwent a uplift in time of 23-16 Ma with rate of 0.04-0.07 mm/a. A careful comparison shows that the Cenozoic uplifting of the WSR coupled well with the subsidence of the Jiyang depression. Our research also suggests that the uplift- basin coupling events are part of the couplings between the Bohai Bay Basin and its peripheral moun- tains. This intraplate mountain-basin coupling is a reflection of global tectonic events.
