In this paper we present sedimentologic, petrographic, and paleoecologic data from a~ 810-
m-thick section of late Neogene (ca. 9–7 to 1Ma) fluvio-lacustrine deposits in the high-
elevation Zhada Basin of SW-Tibet. The tectonic evolution of the Zhada Basin region,
located between the Himalayan Mountains in the S and the Transhimalayan Mountains in
