The role of the uplift of the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau for the evolution of Tibetan biotas
Biodiversity is unevenly distributed on Earth and hotspots of biodiversity are often
associated with areas that have undergone orogenic activity during recent geological history …

Past East Asian monsoon evolution controlled by paleogeography, not CO2
The East Asian monsoon plays an integral role in human society, yet its geological history
and controlling processes are poorly understood. Using a general circulation model and …

Palynological evidence for the latest Oligocene− early Miocene paleoelevation estimate in the Lunpola Basin, central Tibet
Abstract Uplift of the Tibetan Plateau is ultimately driven by the Cenozoic collision between
the Indian and Eurasian plates and their continued convergence. One approach for studying …
