Reorganization of the Asian climate from one dominated by global planetary wind systems
to a regional monsoon climate is closely related to the surface uplift of the Tibetan Plateau …

Mountains are key features of the Earth's surface and host a substantial proportion of the
world's species. However, the links between the evolution and distribution of biodiversity …

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 …

Abstract The Miocene epoch (23.03–5.33 Ma) was a time interval of global warmth, relative
to today. Continental configurations and mountain topography transitioned toward modern …

The uplift of the Tibet Plateau (TP) during the Miocene is crucial to understanding the
evolution of Asian monsoon regimes and alpine biodiversity. However, the northern Tibet …

How coniferous forests evolved in the Northern Hemisphere remains largely unknown.
Unlike most groups of organisms that generally follow a latitudinal diversity gradient, most …

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 …

Convergence between the Indian and Asian plates has reshaped large parts of Asia,
changing regional climate and biodiversity, yet geodynamic models fundamentally diverge …

Geologic evidence and palaeoclimate simulations have indicated the existence of an
