The surface uplift history of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) offers a key testing ground for
evaluating models of collisional tectonics and holds important implications for processes …

Despite a long research history over the past 150 years, the geometry, kinematics, and
dynamic evolution of the Himalayan orogen remain poorly understood. This is mainly due to …

The Himalayan-Tibetan orogen culminated during the Cenozoic India--Asia collision, but its
geological framework and initial growth were fundamentally the result of multiple, previous …

Long-standing problems in the geological evolution of the Tibetan–Himalayan orogen
include where the India–Asia convergence was accommodated and how the plateau grew …

The Himalayan range exposes a spectacular assemblage of metamorphic rocks from the
mid-and deep crust that have fostered numerous models of how the crust responds to …

The rocks of the Indian subcontinent are last seen south of the Ganges before they plunge
beneath the Himalaya and the Tibetan plateau. They are next glimpsed in seismic reflection …

The channel flow model aims to explain features common to metamorphic hinterlands of
some collisional orogens, notably along the Himalaya-Tibet system. Channel flow describes …

The Himalayan leucogranites are critical for understanding the geodynamic process of
Himalayan orogenesis. In this article, we present petrological, geochronological and …

Results from a thermal‐mechanical model (HT1) that includes midcrustal channel flow are
compatible with many features of the Himalayan‐Tibetan system. Radioactive self‐heating …

An inverted metamorphic field gradient associated with a crustal-scale south-vergent thrust
fault, the Main Central Thrust, has been recognized along the Himalaya for over 100 years …
