Research progress and challenges of thermal history reconstruction in sedimentary basins

open access: yesShiyou shiyan dizhi, 2020
The current status and development of the methods of thermal history reconstruction in sedimentary basins are introduced systematically in this paper. The reconstruction methods of thermal history of sedimentary basins mainly include thermal indicators ...

The Cenozoic spatiotemporal exhumation of the SE Tibetan Plateau: insight from the data mining and modeling of low-temperature thermochronology

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Introduction: The SE Tibetan Plateau is distinct from other margins due to its high elevation, long wavelength, and low relief. A clear understanding of the Cenozoic exhumation history of this region is the key to understanding the special ...

Late Cenozoic metamorphic evolution and exhumation of Taiwan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The Taiwan mountain belt is composed of a Cenozoic slate belt (Hsuehshan Range units, HR, and Backbone Slates, BS) and of accreted polymetamorphic basement rocks (Tananao Complex, TC).

A Tortonian onset for the Algerian margin inversion: Evidence from low‐temperature thermochronology [PDF]

open access: yesTerra Nova, 2018
AbstractIn North Africa, the Algerian margin is made of basement blocks that drifted away from the European margin, namely the Kabylia, and docked to the African continental crust in the Early Miocene. This young margin is now inverted, as dated Miocene (17 Ma) granites outcrop alongshore, evidencing kilometre‐scale exhumation since their emplacement ...

Decadal Erosion Rates and Sediment Buffering Identified Through Enhanced DEM Differencing Using Underutilized Global Satellite DEMs

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Quantifying decadal‐scale erosion rates in tectonically active regions is essential for assessing landscape hazards and constraining sediment budgets. A key question in Earth surface processes is how contemporary erosion measurements influenced by recent climatic extremes relate to long‐term geological rates.

Technical note: Geodynamic Thermochronology (GDTchron) – A Python package to calculate low-temperature thermochronometric ages from geodynamic numerical models [PDF]

open access: yesGeochronology
Low-temperature thermochronology provides a powerful means of extracting quantitative information on the thermal evolution of different tectonic settings from rocks exposed at the surface of the Earth.

Meso-Cenozoic tectonics of the Central Kyrgyz Tien Shan (Central Asia), based on apatite fission track thermochronology. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Apatite fission track thermochronology on the Kyrgyz Tien Shan basement revealed a polyphased thermal history of the study-area.

A >300 Myr Long‐Lived Topographic Highland Along the Northern North China Craton Margin Driven by Multistage Continental Convergence

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Topographic highlands commonly develop along convergent plate boundaries through long‐term processes such as subduction and continental collision. However, the pre‐Cenozoic mountain‐building history of deep‐time orogenic systems in northeastern Pangaea remains poorly constrained due to later tectonic overprinting and denudation.

The Cenozoic Multiple-Stage Uplift of the Qiangtang Terrane, Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Cenozoic collision between the Indian and Asian continents is generally considered as the main driver forming the high Tibetan Plateau (TP). However, it remains hotly debated when and how the relatively flat and highly elevated TP was formed.

Further evidence for early lunar magnetism from troctolite 76535 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The earliest history of the lunar dynamo is largely unknown and has important implications for the thermal state of the Moon and the physics of dynamo generation.
