A tectonic model reconciling evidence for the collisions between India, Eurasia and intra-oceanic arcs of the central-eastern Tethys
Despite several decades of investigations, inferences on the timing and nature of collisions
along the Mesozoic–Cenozoic Eurasian margin remain controversial. We assimilate …

Paleocene‐Eocene foreland basin evolution in the Himalaya of southern Tibet and Nepal: Implications for the age of initial India‐Asia collision
Siliciclastic sedimentary rocks derived from the southern Lhasa terrane, sitting depositionally
upon rocks of the northern Indian passive continental margin, provide an estimate of the age …

Timing of India‐Asia collision: Geological, biostratigraphic, and palaeomagnetic constraints
A range of ages have been proposed for the timing of India‐Asia collision; the range to some
extent reflects different definitions of collision and methods used to date it. In this paper we …
