DOI: 10.1002/esp.70169
Abstract: Geomorphic processes are shaped by climate changes, tectonic movements and human activities. Investigating these interactions is crucial for understanding climate change and landform dynamics. However, the mechanisms driving landform development in high‐altitude regions such as… read more here.

Discovery of bacteriopheophytin-a in lacustrine deposits from Lake Zigetang on the central Tibetan Plateau and its paleoenvironmental significance
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Science China Earth Sciences"
DOI: 10.1007/s11430-017-9107-9
Abstract: Lake Zigetang is located on the central Tibetan Plateau (TP) and represents a rare but typical meromictic lake in China. The lake’s stable meromixis sustains microflora communities, and changes in these communities are relatively independent… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.abj0944
Abstract: Reconstructing the Paleogene topography and climate of central Tibet informs understanding of collisional tectonic mechanisms and their links to climate and biodiversity. Radiometric dates of volcanic/sedimentary rocks and paleotemperatures based on clumped isotopes within ancient… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/science.aam9444
Abstract: Zhang et al. contest that Chusang was part of an annual mobility round that “more likely” included seasonal use of high-elevation environments than permanent use. We show that their probabilistic statement hinges on indefensible claims… read more here.

DOI: 10.1130/g51104.1
Abstract: The nature of glaciation (bipolar vs. unipolar) during the Eocene−Oligocene transition (EOT) remains unresolved. Here, we report the occurrence of frost marks, ice-rafted debris (IRD), and glendonites from the Upper Eocene to Lower Oligocene Niubao… read more here.

DOI: 10.1785/0120220247
Abstract: Afterslip could help to reveal seismogenic fault structure. The 2020 Mw 6.3 Nima earthquake happened in a pull-apart basin within the Qiangtang block, central Tibetan plateau. Previous studies have explained the coseismic and early ( read more here.

DOI: 10.2113/2025/lithosphere_2024_257
Abstract: The Qiangtang terrane is located in the central part of the Tibetan Plateau, and reconstructing its uplift and exhumation history is crucial for understanding the Tibetan Plateau’s formation and growth. In particular, the uplift process… read more here.
