Shear zones–A review
Strain in the lithosphere localizes into tabular zones known as shear zones that grow from
small outcrop-size individual zones to large composite structures. Nucleation is related to …

The metamorphic and magmatic record of collisional orogens
Abstract The Cenozoic Himalaya-Tibet orogen is generally regarded as the archetypal
continental collision zone and is often used as an analogue for interpreting ancient orogenic …

Long-lived (ca. 22–24 Myr) partial melts in the eastern Himalaya: Petrochronologic constraints and tectonic implications
Partial melting is thought to profoundly impact the rheology and deformation behavior of the
middle crust. Consequently, investigations of the pressure-temperature conditions of …

How Himalayan collision stems from subduction
The mechanisms and processes active during the transition from continental subduction to
continental collision at the plate interface are largely unknown. Rock records of this …
