A Database of Low‐Temperature Thermochronology in East Asia
Geoscience Data JournalThe low closure temperature of the dating system in low‐temperature thermochronology allows shallow crustal movements to be recorded. In recent decades, this approach has been used extensively in studies of orogenic belt exhumation, sedimentary basin ...
