Four Tethyan ocean basins are recognised in Asia, the Proto-Tethys (Late Proterozoic-
Silurian), Palaeo-Tethys (Middle Devonian-Late Triassic), Meso-Tethys (Middle Permian …

Abstract The Neo-Tethys Ocean was an eastward-ga** triangular oceanic embayment
between Laurasia to the north and Gondwana to the south. The Neo-Tethys Ocean was …

The Himalayan-Tibetan orogen culminated during the Cenozoic India--Asia collision, but its
geological framework and initial growth were fundamentally the result of multiple, previous …

Convergence between the Indian and Asian plates has reshaped large parts of Asia,
changing regional climate and biodiversity, yet geodynamic models fundamentally diverge …

Sundaland, the continental core of SE Asia, is a heterogeneous collage of continental blocks
and volcanic arcs bounded by narrow suture zones that represent the remnants of ancient …

Abstract The East Asian continent records a complex geologic and tectonic history that
involved the amalgamation of several small-to medium-sized blocks from Laurasia or …

Key in understanding the geodynamics governing subduction and orogeny is reconstructing
the paleogeography of 'Greater India', the Indian plate lithosphere that subducted since …

Numerous continents have rifted and drifted away from Gondwana to repeatedly open
ocean basins over the past∼ 500 million years. These Gondwana-derived continents drifted …

Based on the marine magnetic anomalies identified in the Argo Abyssal Plain offshore
northwestern Australia, the conceptual continent of Argoland must have rifted off in the Late …

Zircon rare earth element (REE) oxy-barometers have been widely used to calculate magma
oxygen fugacity. However, sometimes confusing results are obtained, such as extremely …
