The thermochronometric systems discussed in this volume broadly share three features:
parent isotopes, daughter products, and one or more time-dependent, temperature-sensitive …

Erosion of orogenic mountain ranges exhumes deeply buried rocks and controls
weathering, climate, and sediment production and transport at a variety of scales. Erosion …

Two abiding issues impact the reliability of apatite fission-track analysis and thermal history
inversion in particular: reproducibility of track-length measurements and variability of …

Stepwise degassing diffusion experiments on 39 different apatite samples using radiogenic
4He and proton-induced 3He reveal a range in closure temperature (Tc) from∼ 50 to 115° …

The collision between the Eurasian and Arabian plates along the 2400-km-long Bitlis-
Zagros thrust zone isolated the Mediterranean from the Indian Ocean and has been linked to …

Over the last decade major progress has been made in develo** both the theoretical and
practical aspects of apatite (U–Th)/He thermochronometry and it is now standard practice …

The timing of the late Cenozoic collision between the Pamir salient and the Tien Shan as
well as changes in the relative motion between the Pamir and Tarim are poorly constrained …

The uplift history of Tibet is crucial for understanding the geodynamic and paleoclimatologic
evolution of Asia; however, it remains controversial whether Tibet attained its high elevation …

New thermochronometric data from the Eastern Cordillera of the Colombian Andes reveal
diachronous exhumation associated with Cenozoic contractional deformation in this sector …

Using thermochronological data and thermokinematic modeling, we constrain the timing of
late Miocene exhumation of the northern portion of the Gongga batholith, located in …
