The third edition of this widely acclaimed textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to all aspects of global tectonics, and includes major revisions to reflect the most significant …
Subduction of the Indian lithosphere under Eurasia plays an important role in the tectonic evolution of the Tibetan plateau and surrounding regions. To improve our knowledge of …
Shear-coupled teleseismic P waves sampling the interior of the Tibetan plateau provide evidence of systematic variations in crustal structure. The crust thins by up to 20 km from …
Long-standing debates exist over the timing and mechanism of uplift of the Tibetan Plateau and, more specifically, over the connection between lithospheric evolution and surface …
Recent research in the Himalayan fold‐thrust belt provides two new sets of observations that are crucial to understanding the evolution of the Himalayan‐Tibetan orogenic system. First …
