The temporal and spatial distributions of the near-surface CO2 concentrations in Central Asia and analysis of their controlling factors [PDF]

, 2017
As the main anthropogenic greenhouse gas that contributes most to global warming, CO2 plays an important role in climate changes in Central Asia. Due to the lack of studies of near-surface CO2 in this region, we first confirmed the applicability of the ...

Rainstorm Flood Risk Assessment in the China–Pakistan Economic Corridor Under Different Shared Socioeconomic Pathways of the 21st Century

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Global warming has intensified the atmospheric water cycle, leading to more frequent and severe extreme precipitation events, which are a major driver of rainstorm‐induced flooding. Developing regions such as the China–Pakistan economic corridor (CPEC), spanning highly heterogeneous terrain and climate zones, face elevated risk due to limited ...

Comparative Chloroplast Genomics of Cousinia (Asteraceae) With Nine Newly Sequenced Endemic Species From Central Asia

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
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 ...

Formation Mechanism of Muji Travertine in the Pamirs Plateau, China

Minerals
The Muji spring travertines, located in the Muji Basin in the eastern Pamirs Plateau, represent a typical spring deposit found on plateaus that is characterized by arid and semi-arid climatic conditions. However, its formation mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Modelling the Black Carbon Variability and Dynamics in Almaty, Kazakhstan, During Winter and Summer Seasons

Meteorological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
The study investigates the seasonal transport of black carbon (BC) from Almaty, Kazakhstan, to adjacent mountain areas. The radiative effects associated with BC are evaluated at the surface, within the atmosphere, and at the top of the atmosphere. ABSTRACT Large cities with poor air quality can affect surrounding areas through pollutant transport and ...

Conservation and redistribution of crust during the Indo‐Asian collision [PDF]

, 2014
We evaluate the mass balance of the Indo‐Asian orogen by reconstructing the Indian and Asian margins prior to collision using recently published paleomagnetic and surface shortening constraints, and subtracting modern crustal volumes derived from gravity

The Paleo‐Tethys Suture Zone in the Afghan Hindu Kush‒Pamir: Geo‐Thermochronology, Geochemistry, Tectonics

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract In the Afghan Hindu Kush, the 223–209 Ma (≤800°C) Salang batholith is part of the Silk‐Road magmatic arc that was built on ∼40‐km‐thick Turan‐Karakum block continental crust. The batholith constitutes the hanging wall of the Herat‐Panjshir‐Badakhshan—the Paleo‐Tethys—suture zone, vestige of the subducted Paleozoic‐early Mesozoic Paleo‐Tethys ...

Post-collisional magmatism associated with the final closure of the Rushan-Pshart Meso-Tethys Ocean in Pamir, Tajikistan: Inference from Cretaceous igneous rocks of the Pshart accretionary complex

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The Pamir orogen was formed by the subducted accretion and amalgamation of Cimmerian terranes from the northern margin of Gondwana with the southern margin of Eurasia.

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 ...
