Despite a long research history over the past 150 years, the geometry, kinematics, and
dynamic evolution of the Himalayan orogen remain poorly understood. This is mainly due to …

The India–Asia collision resulted in the construction of the vast Himalayan orogen. The
northern Himalayan domain began to experience extensional tectonics since Eocene …

Abstract The Himalaya and Tibet provide an unparalleled opportunity to examine the
complex ways in which continents respond to collisional orogenesis. This paper is an …

Late Oligocene–Miocene leucogranites within southern Tibet form part of an extensive
intrusive igneous province within the Himalayan orogen. The main rock types are tourmaline …

The channel flow model aims to explain features common to metamorphic hinterlands of
some collisional orogens, notably along the Himalaya-Tibet system. Channel flow describes …

This paper presents quantitative data on strain, deformation temperatures and vorticity of
flow at the top of the Greater Himalayan Slab. The data were collected from the Tibetan side …

This paper presents a new geological map together with cross-sections and lateral sections
of the Everest massif. We combine field relations, structural geology, petrology …

The Bhutan Himalayas differ from the rest of the Himalayas in two major ways:(i) low-grade
sedimentary rocks lie above the Greater Himalayan Sequence as klippen (ie erosional …

In the Higher Himalaya of the region from Cho Oyu to the Arun valley northeast of Makalu,
the Miocene leucogranites are not hosted only in the upper High Himalayan Crystallines …

This paper introduces how crustal thickening controls the growth of the Himalaya by
summarizing the P‐T‐t evolution of the Himalayan metamorphic core. The Himalayan …
