Book ChapterDOI
Geochemistry and Petrography of Western Tethys Cretaceous sedimentary covers (Corsica and Northern Apennines): from source areas to configuration of margins
Journal ArticleDOI

Yanina Manya Rachel Najman,D. Jenks,Laurent Godin,Marcelle K. BouDagher-Fadel,Ian L. Millar,Eduardo Garzanti,Matthew S.A. Horstwood,Laura Bracciali +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a provenance study of the youngest detrital sedimentary rocks of the Tethyan Himalaya of the Indian plate, in the Western Himalaya, was conducted.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Brahmaputra tale of tectonics and erosion: Early Miocene river capture in the Eastern Himalaya
Laura Bracciali,Laura Bracciali,Yanina Manya Rachel Najman,Randall R. Parrish,Randall R. Parrish,Syed Humayun Akhter,Ian L. Millar +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-technique approach was applied to the Neogene paleo-Brahmaputra deposits of the Surma Basin (Bengal Basin, Bangladesh) to test the long-debated occurrence and timing of river capture of the Yarlung Tsangpo by the Brahmaputra River.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolving strain partitioning in the Eastern Himalaya: The growth of the Shillong Plateau
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors determine the timing of surface uplift using the sedimentary record in the adjacent Surma Basin to the south, which records the transition from a passive margin with southward thickening sedimentary packages to a flexural basin with north-thickening strata, due to loading by the uplifting plateau.
Journal ArticleDOI
UPb LA-(MC)-ICP-MS dating of rutile: New reference materials and applications to sedimentary provenance
Laura Bracciali,Laura Bracciali,Randall R. Parrish,Randall R. Parrish,Matthew S.A. Horstwood,Daniel J. Condon,Yani Najman +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Tera-Wasserburg diagram to correct for substantial common Pb in very young and/or very low-U rutiles, rather than developing an on-line correction.
