DOI: 10.1016/j.earscirev.2018.03.003
Abstract: Abstract The tectonic evolution of the Pamir bears essential information for understanding intracontinental tectonic processes within the context of India-Asia convergence. However, it is unclear whether the arcuate shape of the Pamir is entirely the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gca.2021.07.010
Abstract: Abstract Mantle degassing transect across different tectonic units within a plate convergent setting has been well documented for oceanic convergent margins by systematic changes in geochemistry (e.g., 3He/4He, δ13C, and CO2/3He) of hydrothermal gases. However,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gr.2015.05.013
Abstract: Abstract Interbedded volcano-sedimentary sequences are well exposed in the northern part of the Lhasa block in southern Tibet. Zircon U–Pb dating results from two samples indicate that the emplacement age of the Duoni Formation volcanic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.lithos.2021.106061
Abstract: Abstract The India-Asia Suture Zone (IASZ) records not only pre-India-Asia collision geological evolution, but also the surface uplift and growth history of the southern Tibetan Plateau. Recent studies from sedimentary and paleoaltimetric data within the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.scib.2018.11.022
Abstract: Abstract The timing of continental collision between India and Asia has been controversial for a long time because of the difficulty in screening isotopic ages for different types of tectonothermal event along the convergent continental… read more here.

Microcontinent subduction and S-type volcanism prior to India–Asia collision

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-94492-y
Abstract: Continental crust has long been considered too buoyant to be subducted beneath another continent, although geophysical evidence in collision zones predict continental crust subduction. This is particularly significant where upper continental crust is detached allowing… read more here.

Limited underthrusting of India below Tibet: 3He/4He analysis of thermal springs locates the mantle suture in continental collision

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2113877119
Abstract: Significance Our regional-scale geochemical dataset (3He/4He) resolves the geometry of the continental collision between India and Asia. Geophysical images have led to contradictory interpretations that India directly underthrusts Tibet as a horizontal plate or India… read more here.
