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

▪ Abstract Fission track analysis as a geological dating tool was first proposed in the early
1960s. The past 10 years has seen a major expansion in application to more general …

The active left-slip Altyn Tagh fault defines the northern edge of the Tibetan plateau. To
determine its deformation history we conducted integrated research on Cenozoic …

The apatite fission-track method is used to determine the exhumation history of the Olympic
subduction complex, an uplifted part of the modern Cascadia accretionary wedge. Fission …

The Cenozoic collision between India and Asia has deformed a large part of central Asia. To
the north of Tibet around the margins of the western Tarim basin, major basin‐vergent …

Individual dating of detrital apatite and zircon crystals in arenitic sediments by the fission
track method is a useful, promising technique for provenance analysis. The ages form …

Type and amount of sediment generation are intimately connected to tectonic and climatic
processes active at the earth's surface today as well as throughout the geologic past. Detrital …

Thermochronological data from the Songpan-Ganze˛ Fold Belt and Longmen Mountains
Thrust-Nappe Belt, on the eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau in central China, reveal …

During the past 15 years, numerous studies have reported not only ecological and climatic
changes at 6-8 Ma, but also the roughly concurrent onsets of tectonic processes in regions …

This paper outlines the statistical basis, construction and interpretation of probability-density
(PD) plots as applied to the analysis of mixed distributions of fission-track (FT) grain ages …
