Journal ArticleDOI
The Andean-type Gangdese Mountains: Paleoelevation record from the Paleocene-Eocene Linzhou Basin
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented new oxygen and carbon isotopic compositions from well dated Tertiary paleosols, lacustrine calcareous carbonates, and marls from the Nianbo and upper Pana Formations of the Linzizong Group in the Linzhou (Penbo) Basin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantifying the rise of the Himalaya orogen and implications for the South Asian monsoon
Lin Ding,Robert A. Spicer,Robert A. Spicer,Jian Yang,Qiang Xu,Fulong Cai,Shun Li,Qingzhou Lai,Houqi Wang,Teresa E.V. Spicer,Yahui Yue,Anvisha Shukla,Gaurav Srivastava,M. Ali Khan,Subir Bera,Subir Bera,Rakesh C. Mehrotra +16 more
TL;DR: The authors reconstructs the rise of a segment of the southern flank of the Himalaya-Tibet orogen, to the south of the Lhasa terrane, using a paleoaltimeter based on paleoenthalpy encoded in fossil leaves from two new assemblages in southern Tibet (Liuqu and Qiabulin) and four previously known floras from the foreland basin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Provenance analysis of the Mesozoic Hoh-Xil-Songpan-Ganzi turbidites in northern Tibet: Implications for the tectonic evolution of the eastern Paleo-Tethys Ocean
Lin Ding,D. Yang,Fulong Cai,Alex Pullen,Paul Kapp,George E. Gehrels,Liyun Zhang,Qinghai Zhang,Qingzhou Lai,Yahui Yue,Rendeng Shi +10 more
TL;DR: Zircon age data indicate that the Middle-Upper Triassic marine gravity-flow deposits of the Hoh-Xil-Songpan-Ganzi complex were shed from the North and South China blocks, and Middle-Late Triassic ultrahigh-pressure Qinling-Dabie orogenic belt, as well as the Kunlun and Qiangtang terranes as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Provenance analysis of upper Cretaceous strata in the Tethys Himalaya, southern Tibet: Implications for timing of India-Asia collision
Fulong Cai,Lin Ding,Yahui Yue +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, in-situ detrital zircon U-Pb ages and Lu-Hf isotopic analyses, whole rock Nd-isotopes, and Cr-spinel electronic microprobe data from upper Cretaceous clastic sedimentary rocks of the Tethys Himalaya near Gyangze, southern Tibet.
Journal ArticleDOI
Paleogene high elevations in the Qiangtang Terrane, central Tibetan Plateau
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present stable isotope results of fluvial/lacustrine carbonate cement, pedogenic carbonate and marl from the Kangtuo and Suonahu formations deposited between ∼51 and ∼28 Ma in the Heihuling-Bamaoqiongzong area of the northern Qiangtang terrane.
