India's diverse vegetation and landscapes provide an opportunity to understand the
responses of vegetation to climate change. By examining pollen and fossil records along …

Links between tectonics and regional climate have been extensively studied in Asia.
However, despite decades of research, the relative roles of tectonics and global climate in …

There remains substantial debate concerning the relative roles of tectonics and of global

For the first time, carbon isotope ratios (δ 13 C) of plants and occluded carbon in phytoliths
were analyzed from three locations of the middle (26.5° N, 80.3° E) and lower (22.3° N …

The remarkable uplift of the Tibetan Plateau in the Neogene had great impacts on the
