The Tianshan range, located in the southern Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB),
represents an excellent natural laboratory for investigating intracontinental deformation. The …

Thermochronological datasets for the Kyrgyz Tianshan and Siberian Altai-Sayan within
Central Asia reveal a punctuated exhumation history during the Meso–Cenozoic. In this …

The North Tianshan orogenic belt in Kyrgyzstan consists predominantly of Neoproterozoic to
early Paleozoic assemblages and tectonically interlayered older Precambrian crystalline …

Asia is key to a richer understanding of many important lithospheric processes such as
crustal growth, continental evolution and orogenesis. But to properly decipher the secrets …

Multimethod chronology was applied on intrusives bordering the Kyrgyz South Tien Shan
suture (STSs) to decipher the timing of (1) formation and amalgamation of the suturing units …

The Tianshan orogenic belt, part of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt, offers an opportunity to
examine the complexities of an orogenic system that records long‐term intracontinental …

Lake Issyk-Kul occupies a large Late Mesozoic–Cenozoic intramontane basin between the
mountain ranges of the Northern Kyrgyz Tien Shan. These ranges are often composed of …

Abstract The Eastern Tianshan and East Junggar orogenic belts are major constituents of
the southwestern Central Asian Orogenic Belt. This study applies low-temperature …

New low‐temperature thermochronological data from 80 samples in eastern Kyrgyzstan are
combined with previously published data from 61 samples to constrain exhumation in a …

Abstract During the Late Palaeozoic–Mesozoic, Central Asia and Tibet were affected by
several geodynamic episodes that induced either large-scale compression or widespread …
