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 sediment archive, of material eroded from an active tectonic region and stored in
adjacent basins, can provide a valuable record of hinterland tectonism especially when …

Abstract The Himalaya and Tibet provide an unparalleled opportunity to examine the
complex ways in which continents respond to collisional orogenesis. This paper is an …

Metasedimentary rocks of the Greater Himalaya are traditionally viewed as Indian shield
basement that has been thrust southward onto Lesser Himalayan sedimentary rocks during …

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 …

Comprehensive understanding of Himalayan orogenesis is limited in part by a poor
knowledge of the Eohimalayan episode; a phase of tectonic activity predating the better …

We compare the geologic histories, the deep structures, and the present‐day kinematics of
deformation of the Himalaya and the adjacent Tibetan Plateau with those of the Zagros and …

Structural, thermobarometric, and thermochronologic investigations of the Kangmar Dome,
southern Tibet, suggest that both extensional and contractional deformational histories are …

Abstract The South Tibetan Detachment (STD) System comprises both ductile shear zones
and brittle low-angle extensional faults bounding the upper (northern) margin of the high …

New and published U‐Pb geochronology and 40Ar/39Ar thermochronology from footwall
and hanging wall rocks of a segment of the South Tibetan detachment system exposed in …
