Cross Orogenic Belts in Central China: Implications for the tectonic and paleogeographic evolution of the East Asian continental collage
Abstract The East Asian continent records a complex geologic and tectonic history that
involved the amalgamation of several small-to medium-sized blocks from Laurasia or …

New Constraints on the Late Oligocene‐Miocene Thermo‐Tectonic Evolution of the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau From Low‐Temperature Thermochronology
Abstract The southeastern (SE) Tibetan Plateau (Yunnan) is characterized by low‐relief
uplands that were deeply incised by large rivers. The thermal history of basement rocks in …

Effect of short-term, climate-driven sediment deposition on tectonically controlled alluvial channel incision
Debate about relations between rates of fluvial incision and time (the “Sadler effect”)
continues, impeding the use of incision rates to infer tectonic and climatic processes. There …

Geochemistry of dissolved rare earth elements in the Lancang River with cascade dams and implications for anthropogenic impacts
S Ma, G Han, Y Yang, X Li - Applied Geochemistry, 2023 - Elsevier
Anthropogenic effects like the construction of cascade dams are increasingly affecting the
biogeochemical cycles of rare earth elements (REE) in rivers. However, our understanding …

Contrasting riverine K and Li isotope signatures during silicate weathering in the southeastern Tibetan Plateau
X Li, G Han, Q Zhang, J Liu, R Qu - Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2023 - Elsevier
Mountain uplift produces steep slopes and rapid erosion rates, and hence exposes more
silicate rocks to weathering and accelerates the drawdown of atmospheric CO 2, driving …
