Abstract The Xining Basin is well known for its thick and continuous sequence of fine-
grained Cenozoic sediments. In addition, it contains important Xiejia fauna which define the …

Abstract During the Late Miocene, the climate patterns and ecosystems of continental land
masses experienced crucial transitions, but whether the principal driver was regional …

Global cooling and the uplift of the Tibetan Plateau have long been considered the crucial
controls of the climate change in inland Asia since the Cenozoic. However, which of these …

The uplift of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) during the late Cenozoic is thought to be one of crucial
factors controlling Asian climate. However, the complex interaction between tectonics and …

The relationship between silicate weathering, Tibetan Plateau uplift, and global cooling
during the Cenozoic provides a valuable case study for understanding the interaction of …

The Cenozoic growth history of the northeast (NE) Tibetan Plateau has been strongly
debated in the past few years with three deformation models being proposed: progressive …

The uplift history of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) remains uncertain despite many scientific
studies. The development of a novel paleoaltimeter may provide a crucial tool for addressing …

Asian mineral dust has been studied extensively for its role in affecting regional‐to global‐
scale climate and for its deposits, which enable reconstructing Asian atmospheric circulation …

Tectonic uplift and climate change play a key role in the evolution of sedimentary systems in
terrestrial basins. The Qaidam Basin in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau is well suited for …

Drainage basins are useful recorders of tectonics and climate. The Datong River, which
drains the Qilian Mountains, China, is one of the most elongated river basins of the world …
