Oligocene clockwise rotations along the eastern Pamir: Tectonic and paleogeographic implications

, 2014
International audienceDespite the importance of the Pamir range in controlling Asian paleoenvironments and land-sea paleogeography, its tectonic evolution remains poorly constrained in time and space, hindering its potential for understanding deep to ...

Strain Rates Along the Alpine‐Himalayan Belt From a Comprehensive GNSS Velocity Field

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Alpine‐Himalayan belt is one of Earth's most dynamic and complex regions, characterized by intense tectonic deformation and seismicity. Comprehensive analyses of continental‐scale crustal deformation and seismic hazards along this extensive orogenic belt require the compilation of large geodetic data sets.

Emulsion chamber observations and interpretation (HE 3) [PDF]

Experimental results from Emulsion Chamber (EC) experiments at mountain altitudes or at higher levels using flying carriers are examined. The physical interest in this field is concentrated on the strong interaction at the very high energy region ...

Repeat optical satellite images reveal widespread and long term decrease in land-terminating glacier speeds [PDF]

, 2012
By matching of repeat optical satellite images it is now possible to investigate glacier dynamics within large regions of the world and also between regions to improve knowledge about glacier dynamics in space and time.

Range‐Parallel Extension of the Andes in the 2020 Mw 5.7 Humahuaca Earthquake

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Normal‐faulting earthquakes in mountain ranges provide important constraints on the dynamics of mountain building. To date, well‐documented examples of range‐parallel extension come primarily from the Tibetan Plateau, limiting our ability to test different models for its cause.

Distribution, floristic structure and habitat requirements of the riparian forest community Populetum talassicae ass. nova in the Central Pamir-Alai Mts (Tajikistan, Middle Asia)

, 2013
This paper discusses the floristic structure, distribution and habitat requirements of a new forest syntaxon, Populetum talassicae ass. nova. The potential range of the Populetum talassicae association comprises the central Pamir-Alai and Tian-Shan ...
