Out-of-sequence deformation in the Himalaya has been caused mainly by thrusting. Out-of-
sequence thrusts, usually north-to NE-dipping foreshear planes, occur inside the Sub …

Spread over countries including Pakistan, India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China, the Himalayan
mountain chain, the most spectacular result of the Indo-Eurasian plate collision, is a locus of …

The ongoing debate about the nature of coupling between climate and tectonics in mountain
ranges derives, in part, from an imperfect understanding of how topography, climate …

GPS data reveal that the Brahmaputra Valley has broken from the Indian Plate and rotates
clockwise relative to India about a point a few hundred kilometers west of the Shillong …

Since the 1950s river networks have been intensely researched in geosciences and
hydrology. This led to the definition of scaling laws that described the organisation of …

Abstract The Shillong Plateau is the only raised topography (up to 2000 m elevation) in the
Himalayan foreland. It is proposed to have had a major influence on strain partitioning and …

A regional, balanced cross section is presented for the thin-skinned Tajik fold-and-thrust
belt, constrained by new structural and stratigraphic data, industrial well-log data, flexural …

The instrumental record of Bhutan is characterized by a lower seismicity compared to other
parts of the Himalayan arc. To understand this low activity and its impact on the seismic …

Exhumation of the southern Tibetan plateau margin reflects interplay between surface and
lithospheric dynamics within the Himalaya–Tibet orogen. We report thermochronometric …

Advancements in thermochronology and numerical modeling offer the potential to associate
the age of thermochronometric samples to both exhumational and deformational processes …
