A large quantity of Rice husk ash (RHA) is disposed of as waste material and leads to
severe pollution. The pozzolanic behaviour of RHA enables its application in the …

As one of the most important accommodation zones during the India-Asia collision, the
southeast margin of the Tibetan Plateau (SEMTP) is characterized by many large-scale …

Abstract The Cenomanian–Santonian (C–S) carbonate successions include valuable
petroleum reservoirs in the Zagros Basin. They also provide important information on the …

Tree-ring oxygen isotope (δ 18 O TR) is a powerful proxy for paleoclimatology, ecology and
archaeology, δ 18 O TR studies in Asia over the past∼ 50 years have made significant …

The southeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau has a number of well-known Late Miocene
localities that have yielded fossil hominoids belonging to Lufengpithecus and …

Clay mineral proxies have been widely used to reconstruct changes in provenance and the
paleoclimate. However, high-altitude clay mineral indications and long-term and orbital …

Clay mineralogy and elemental geochemistry of lacustrine sedimentary records have been
widely used in paleo-weathering and paleo-climate studies. However, different paleo …

To position the Asian southern margin before the India‐Asia collision, paleomagnetic and
geochronologic studies were performed on the Dianzhong Formation lava flows from the …

Microbially induced formation and transformation of clay minerals are known to be
ubiquitous in nature. This work investigated the smectite-to-kaolinite transformation by …

Apart from northern and Central China, the fossil record of the latest Miocene and early
Pliocene of Asia are not well documented and the record of South China during this interval …
