This contribution is a synthesis of studies carried out since 2004 in the Makran accretionary
wedge exposed in SE Iran. These studies were intended to improve our understanding of …

Despite several decades of investigations, inferences on the timing and nature of collisions
along the Mesozoic–Cenozoic Eurasian margin remain controversial. We assimilate …

The Himalayan orogeny, a result of the collision of India and Eurasia, provides direct
evidence of strain accommodation and large-scale rheological behavior of the continental …

Magmatic rocks and depositional setting of associated volcaniclastic strata along a north‐
south traverse spanning the southern Tien Shan and eastern Pamirs of Kyrgyzstan and …

The eastern Gangdese magmatic belt (between~ 88° E and 94° E) in southern Tibet
preserves a series of Cenozoic collision-related igneous rocks that have formed since the …

In this study, we integrate bedrock datasets, observations of subducted slabs in the mantle,
and plate kinematic constraints to constrain models for the India-Asia collision and the …

This paper presents a set of new SHRIMP zircon U–Pb geochronological, elemental and Sr–
Nd–Pb isotopic data for the Wusu and Yaxuanqiao basaltic rocks (the Mojiang area) along …

Abstract The period following Late Jurassic continental collision but preceding Late
Cretaceous–Cenozoic arc magmatism represents a significant, yet poorly understood …

The total offset, lifespan and slip rate of the Karakorum fault zone (KFZ)(western Tibet) are
debated. Along the southern fault half, ongoing oblique slip has exhumed dextrally sheared …

Abstract The Karakoram/Kohistan/India collision zone provides a rare opportunity to study
the roles of subduction and tectonic accretion in crustal growth processes. Magmatic …
