The zirconium-in-rutile thermometer enjoys widespread use, but confidence in its accuracy is limited because experiments were conducted at higher temperatures than many rutile …
Despite several decades of investigations, the nature and timing of the India–Asia collision remain debated. In the western Himalaya, the leading edge of the Indian continent was …
Widespread anatexis was a regional response to the evolution of the Himalayan‐Tibetan Orogen that occurred some 30 Ma after collision between Asia and India. This paper reviews …
The largest crystalline unit representing the mid-crust in the Himalayan belt is the Greater Himalayan Sequence (GHS) which stretches all over the 2400 km of length of the belt. The …
