Reorganization of the Asian climate from one dominated by global planetary wind systems
to a regional monsoon climate is closely related to the surface uplift of the Tibetan Plateau …

Aeolian dust has a great influence on mountain hydrology, climate, and biogeochemical
cycles. Dust deposited on glaciers and snowpack of the high alpine mountains in Tibetan …

Sediment accumulation rates and thermal trackers suggest a substantial and global
increase in erosion rates over the past few million years. That increase is commonly …

Fast late Miocene global cooling since∼ 7 Ma accompanied by less changeable
atmospheric CO2 levels revealed by existing proxy reconstructions has suggested an …

Loess deposits are widely distributed along the mountain piedmonts of Central Asia. The
transport processes and origins of Central Asian loess sediments remain poorly understood …

The uplift of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) during the late Cenozoic is thought to be one of crucial
factors controlling Asian climate. However, the complex interaction between tectonics and …

Cenozoic basin sediments around the Tibetan Plateau are valuable archives that can be
used to reveal long-term interactions among tectonics, climate and weathering. However …

The Cenozoic biochronology framework for northern China has been based on few
vertebrate fossil localities with unverified age constraints. The Linxia Basin, located on the …

The timing and magnitude of upper crustal deformation in the northern Tibetan Plateau are
important for testing models of plateau uplift and for understanding Cenozoic environmental …

Sediment source-to-sink history is pivotal to investigating the evolution of ancient
sedimentary basin. Previous study focuses mostly on reconstruction of various components …
