A geospatial platform for the tectonic interpretation of low-temperature thermochronology Big Data [PDF]
Low-temperature thermochronology is a powerful tool for constraining the thermal evolution of rocks and minerals in relation to a breadth of tectonic, geodynamic, landscape evolution, and natural resource formation processes through deep time.

The state of the art of Low-temperature Thermochronology in Brazil
Low-temperature thermochronology focuses on the comprehension of the upper crust’s thermal history, where morphotectonic processes take place. We present a robust compilation (1120 data in almost 30 years of research) of fission-track and (U-Th)/He ...

Phanerozoic thermochronology record of Afro-Arabia through space and time [PDF]
Low-temperature thermochronology has been widely used in eastern Africa and Arabia (Afro-Arabia) to investigate the long-term thermal evolution of the crust in response to Phanerozoic tectonism. Yet, utilisation of this invaluable thermochronology record

A Database of Low‐Temperature Thermochronology in East Asia
The 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 ...

Paleogeography of the southwestern Ordos Basin and exhumation history of the Liupan Shan area [PDF]
The Liupan Shan, situated on the southwestern Ordos Basin, underwent Cenozoic uplift caused by the India-Asia collision and subsequent northeastward tectonic movements.

Construction of the Ukrainian Carpathian wedge from low-temperature thermochronology and tectono-stratigraphic analysis [PDF]
The evolution of orogenic wedges can be determined through stratigraphic and thermochronological analysis. We used apatite fission-track (AFT) and apatite and zircon (U–Th–Sm) / He (AHe and ZHe) low-temperature thermochronology to assess the thermal ...

Mesozoic Thermo-Tectonic Evolution of the Western Altai Orogenic Belt (NW China): Insights from Low-Temperature Thermochronology [PDF]
The Meso-Cenozoic tectonic activities of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) played an important role in controlling the present-day topography of Central Asia.
