Abstract: Abstract We investigated temporal variations of the bulk strain rate across the Himalayan-Tibetan orogen, which impact the magnitudes, rates, and distribution of deformation across the orogen. The present-day strain rate estimated from geodesy is ~5-6×10-16… read more here.

Abstract: Formation pathways and sources of atmosphere nitrate (NO3-) have attracted much attention as NO3- had detrimental effects on Earth's ecosystem and climate change. Here, we measured nitrogen (δ15N-NO3-) and oxygen (δ18O-NO3- and Δ17O-NO3-) isotope compositions… read more here.

DOI: 10.1130/g46701.1
Abstract: Observations highlight the complex tectonic, magmatic, and geodynamic phases of the Cenozoic post-collisional evolution of the Himalayan-Tibetan orogen and show that these phases migrate erratically among terranes accreted to Asia prior to the Indian collision.… read more here.
