Slight change of glaciers in the Pamir over the period 2000–2017 [PDF]

Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2022
Glaciers in the Pamir are the water tower of arid Central Asia, and more than 50 million people depend on meltwater from them. Many studies have reported glacier changes in the Pamir, but the glacier inventories employed in the previous investigations ...

Geochronology, Geochemistry, and Geodynamic Implications of Permo-Triassic Back-Arc Basin Successions in the North Pamir, Central Asia [PDF]

Lithosphere, 2022
The Permo-Triassic period marks the time interval between Hercynian (Variscan) orogenic events in the Tien Shan and the North Pamir, and the Cimmerian accretion of the Gondwana-derived Central and South Pamir to the southern margin of the Paleo-Asian ...

Early Cretaceous displacement on the Tanymas thrust fault, Northern Pamir, Tajikistan, and regional tectonic implications [PDF]

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2023
An ongoing question in understanding the evolution of the Himalayan-Tibetan orogeny is how much of the observed upper crustal shortening and crustal thickness is related to the Cenozoic collision between India and Asia vs earlier tectonic events along ...

Region-wide glacier mass balances over the Pamir-Karakoram-Himalaya during 1999–2011 [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2013
The recent evolution of Pamir-Karakoram-Himalaya (PKH) glaciers, widely acknowledged as valuable high-altitude as well as mid-latitude climatic indicators, remains poorly known.

Comparative Chloroplast Genomics of <i>Cousinia</i> (Asteraceae) With Nine Newly Sequenced Endemic Species From Central Asia. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
In this study, nine complete chloroplast genomes of Cousinia species endemic to the Pamir–Alay mountain system were sequenced and analyzed together with previously published plastomes and nuclear ribosomal ITS data. ABSTRACT Cousinia (Asteraceae: Cardueae) represents one of the most species‐rich genera within the Irano–Turanian floristic region, yet ...

Phylogenetic Diversity and Community Assembly of Vascular Plants Along Environmental Gradients in the Western Pamir-Alay: A Case Study From Surkhandarya Province, Southern Uzbekistan. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Using extensive field, herbarium, and database records, we examine patterns of species richness, phylogenetic diversity, and community assembly along elevational and climatic gradients in an understudied region of Central Asia. ABSTRACT Biodiversity plays a fundamental role in ecosystem structure, function, and stability, but its response to ...

Petrogenesis of the Snezhnoe Ruby Deposit, Central Pamir [PDF]

Minerals, 2020
The Snezhnoe ruby deposit is located in the Muzkol–Rangkul anticlinorium within the Cimmerian zone of the Central Pamir. On the local scale, the deposit occurs on discrete relict bedding planes of calcitic marbles belonging to the Sarydzhilgin suite. Four ruby-bearing mineral assemblages are present within the main parts of the deposit: (1) scapolite +
