Geologic Evolution of the Himalayan-Tibetan Orogen
Tập 28 Số 1 - Trang 211-280 - 2000
An Yin, T. Mark Harrison
A review of the geologic history of the Himalayan-Tibetan orogen suggests that at least 1400 km of north-south shortening has been absorbed by the orogen since the onset of the Indo-Asian collision at about 70 Ma. Significant crustal shortening, which leads to eventual construction of the Cenozoic Tibetan plateau, began more or less synchronously in the Eocene (50–40 Ma) in the Tethyan Him...... hiện toàn bộ

The Indian Monsoon and Its Variability
Tập 31 Số 1 - Trang 429-467 - 2003
Sulochana Gadgil
▪ Abstract  For over 300 years, the monsoon has been viewed as a gigantic land-sea breeze. It is shown in this paper that satellite and conventional observations support an alternative hypothesis, which considers the monsoon as a manifestation of seasonal migration of the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ). With the focus on the Indian monsoon, the mean seasonal pattern is described, an...... hiện toàn bộ
BEDROCK RIVERS AND THE GEOMORPHOLOGY OF ACTIVE OROGENS
Tập 32 Số 1 - Trang 151-185 - 2004
K. X. Whipple
▪ Abstract  Bedrock rivers set much of the relief structure of active orogens and dictate rates and patterns of denudation. Quantitative understanding of the role of climate-driven denudation in the evolution of unglaciated orogens depends first and foremost on knowledge of fluvial erosion processes and the factors that control incision rate. The results of intense research in the past de...... hiện toàn bộ
A Tale of Amalgamation of Three Permo-Triassic Collage Systems in Central Asia: Oroclines, Sutures, and Terminal Accretion
Tập 43 Số 1 - Trang 477-507 - 2015
Wenjiao Xiao, Brian F. Windley, Shu Sun, Jiliang Li, Baochun Huang, Chunming Han, Chao Yuan, Min Sun, Hanlin Chen
The Central Asian Orogenic Belt records the accretion and convergence of three collage systems that were finally rotated into two major oroclines. The Mongolia collage system was a long, N–S-oriented composite ribbon that was rotated to its current orientation when the Mongol-Okhotsk orocline was formed. The components of the Kazakhstan collage system were welded together into a long, sing...... hiện toàn bộ
The Redox State of Earth's Mantle
Tập 36 Số 1 - Trang 389-420 - 2008
D. J. Frost, Catherine McCammon
Oxygen thermobarometry measurements on spinel peridotite rocks indicate that the oxygen fugacity at the top of the upper mantle falls within ±2 log units of the fayalite-magnetite-quartz (FMQ) oxygen buffer. Measurements on garnet peridotites from cratonic lithosphere reveal a general decrease in fo2 with depth, which appears to result principally from the effect of p...... hiện toàn bộ
THE EARLY HISTORY OF ATMOSPHERIC OXYGEN: Homage to Robert M. Garrels
Tập 33 Số 1 - Trang 1-36 - 2005
Donald E. Canfield
▪ Abstract  This paper reviews the Precambrian history of atmospheric oxygen, beginning with a brief discussion of the possible nature and magnitude of life before the evolution of oxygenic photosynthesis. This is followed by a summary of the various lines of evidence constraining oxygen levels through time, resulting in a suggested history of atmospheric oxygen concentrations. Also revie...... hiện toàn bộ
Molecular Paleohydrology: Interpreting the Hydrogen-Isotopic Composition of Lipid Biomarkers from Photosynthesizing Organisms
Tập 40 Số 1 - Trang 221-249 - 2012
Dirk Sachse, Isabelle Billault, Gabriel J. Bowen, Yoshito Chikaraishi, Todd E. Dawson, Sarah J. Feakins, Katherine H. Freeman, Clayton Magill, Francesca A. McInerney, Marcel T. J. van der Meer, P. J. Polissar, Richard J. Robins, Julian P. Sachs, H.‐L. Schmidt, Alex L. Sessions, James W. C. White, Jason B. West, Ansgar Kahmen
Hydrogen-isotopic abundances of lipid biomarkers are emerging as important proxies in the study of ancient environments and ecosystems. A decade ago, pioneering studies made use of new analytical methods and demonstrated that the hydrogen-isotopic composition of individual lipids from aquatic and terrestrial organisms can be related to the composition of their growth (i.e., environmental)...... hiện toàn bộ
