Abstract Although Pangea as Earth's youngest supercontinent has continuously served as a
pivotal reference mark in paleogeographic reconstructions, its assembly is still a matter of …

Understanding the dynamics of double‐thickening and uplifting of the Tibetan crust requires
constraints on the magnitude and timing of crustal shortening. New elongation/inclination …

The timing of formation of the Hegenshan suture is crucial to understanding the evolution of
the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB). Here we present a well‐dated paleomagnetic pole …

Understanding the magnitude of intra‐Asian crustal shortening and the collision age of
Lhasa–Qiangtang terranes requires quantitative constraints on the crustal motion. The key to …

Inclination is the angle of a magnetization vector from horizontal. Clastic sedimentary rocks
often experience inclination shallowing whereby syn‐to post‐depositional processes result …

Reliable reconstruction of global paleogeography through deep geologic time provides a
key surface boundary condition for investigating many first-order Earth system and …

Paleomagnetism is the most important source of information for determining the position of
tectonic plates in the geological past. Over the last few decades significant advancements …

The absolute position during the Cenozoic of northern Zealandia, a continent that lies more
than 90% submerged in the southwest Pacific Ocean, is inferred from global plate motion …

To constrain the closure time of the Paleo-Asian Ocean and better understand the
movement processes of different terranes in the Northern Xinjiang region, we present a …

Paleogeographic reconstructions largely rely on paleomagnetic data, mostly in the form of
paleomagnetic poles. Compilations of poles are used to determine so called apparent polar …
