Integration of regional stratigraphic relationships with data on sediment accumulation,
provenance, paleodrainage, and deformation timing enables a reconstruction of Mesozoic …

Mountain building in the Andes, the longest continental mountain range on Earth, started in
the Late Cretaceous but was highly diachronous. Reconstructing the timing of surface uplift …

Construction of the Andes has been governed largely by fluctuating contractional, neutral,
and extensional tectonic regimes during differing degrees of mechanical coupling along the …

The largest tectonic relief breaking the Earth's surface (13 km vertically) is at the subduction
margin of the Andes, which generates routinely megathrust earthquakes (Mw> 8.5) and …

Current end-member models for the geodynamic evolution of orogenic plateaus predict (a)
slow and steady rise during crustal shortening and ablative subduction (ie, continuous …

Uplifted Neogene marine sediments and Quaternary fluvial terraces in the Mut Basin,
southern Turkey, reveal a detailed history of surface uplift along the southern margin of the …

Diverse techniques have been applied over the past decade to quantify the uplift history of
the central Andean Plateau (AP). In this study, opposing models for surface uplift are …

The western flank of the Central Andean Plateau is a crustal‐scale monoclinal fold,
expressed in the geomorphology and in the westward tilt of fore‐arc basin strata. Data from …

Abstract The Longmen Shan, located at the boundary between the Tibetan Plateau and the
Sichuan Basin, has received considerable attention following the 2008 Wenchuan …

Highly elevated and well-preserved peneplains are characteristic geomorphic features of
the Tibetan plateau in the northern Lhasa Terrane, north–northwest of Nam Co. The …
