Miocene Subsidence and Surface Uplift of Southernmost Tibet Induced by Indian Subduction Dynamics

Miocene Subsidence and Surface Uplift of Southernmost Tibet Induced by Indian Subduction Dynamics

Abstract The Indus‐Yarlung suture of southernmost Tibet marks the initial collisional zone, the ongoing India‐Asia collision, and yet more than ~30 million years after the onset of collision, a thick detrital sedimentary unit was deposited just north of the suture: the Kailas Formation.
