Calcite Marbles as Records of Episodic Deformation During Exhumation of High‐Pressure Rocks (Syros Island, Aegean Region)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract We present new calcite microstructural, petrofabric, and grain size data from high‐pressure marbles, integrated with microstructural observations from associated greenschist‐facies rocks, to investigate spatio‐temporal variations in deformation intensity during the exhumation of the Cycladic Blueschist Unit in southern Syros Island (Cycladic ...

Is a climate signal detectable using cosmogenic data and coarse‐resolution digital topography in fluvially dominated landscapes?

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 50, Issue 12, 30 September 2025.
With increasing precipitation, the relationships between basin‐average 10Be erosion rate, hillslope gradient and ksnQ change: nonlinearity between erosion rate and ksnQ rises, threshold hillslope gradient decreases and characteristic hillslope length grows. However, large uncertainties obscure these trends.

High‐Resolution P‐T‐Time Paths Across Himalayan Faults Exposed Along the Bhagirathi Transect NW India: Implications for the Construction of the Himalayan Orogen and Ongoing Deformation

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Pressure‐temperature (P‐T) conditions and high‐resolution paths from 11 garnet‐bearing rocks collected across Himalayan fault systems exposed along the Bhagirathi River (Uttarakhand, NW India) reveal the tectonic conditions responsible for their growth ...

Provenance and drainage system of the Early Cretaceous volcanic detritus in the Himalaya as constrained by detrital zircon geochronology

open access: yesJournal of Palaeogeography, 2015
The age range of the major intra-plate volcanic event that affected the northern Indian margin in the Early Cretaceous is here defined precisely by detrital zircon geochronology.

Campaign-style U-Pb titanite petrochronology: along-strike variations in timing of metamorphism in the Himalayan Metamorphic Core [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Present-day along-strike heterogeneities within the Himalayan orogen are seen at many scales, from variations within the deep architecture of the lithospheric mantle, to differences in geomorphologic surface processes.

Geodynamics of Long‐Term Indian Continental Subduction and Indentation at the India‐Eurasia Collision Zone

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract The India‐Eurasia convergence is a long‐term, ongoing process despite the continental collision and associated velocity reduction from ∼15 to 20 cm/yr in the Late Cretaceous‐earliest Eocene to ∼4–5 cm/yr (since ∼40 Ma). Previous studies that impose Indian plate motion imply an external force driving long‐term convergence, continental ...

Tibet, the Himalaya, Asian monsoons and biodiversity - In what ways are they related? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Prevailing dogma asserts that the uplift of Tibet, the onset of the Asian monsoon system and high biodiversity in southern Asia are linked, and that all occurred after 23 million years ago in the Neogene. Here, spanning the last 60 million years of Earth

High-frequency Holocene glacier fluctuations in the Himalayan-Tibetan orogen

open access: yesQuaternary Science Reviews, 2019
Abstract Holocene glacial chronostratigraphies in glaciated valleys spread throughout the Himalayan-Tibetan orogen, including the Himalaya, Tibet, Pamir, and Tian Shan, are developed using a landsystems approach, detailed geomorphic mapping, and new and published 10Be surface exposure dating. New studies in the Kulti valley of Lahul and the Parkachik
