Late Cenozoic tectonic evolution of the northwestern Tien Shan: New age estimates for the initiation of mountain building
The Tien Shan are the quintessential intracontinental range, situated more than 1000 km north of the suture between India and Asia. Their initiation and growth in the Cenozoic, however, remain poorly understood. In this study we present stratigraphic, detrital fission-track, and magnetostratigraphic results that provide a basis for reconstructing the Cenozoic tectonic evolution of the Kyrgyz Ra...
متن کاملLate Cenozoic uplift of the Eastern Cordillera, Bolivian Andes
This paper analyses Late Cenozoic uplift in the Bolivian Andes, using the morphology of well preserved regional paleosurfaces in the Eastern Cordillera that define three axially draining braided river catchments that formed between ∼12 and ∼9 Ma. Rock uplift since the formation of the paleodrainage systems, which has been quantified using four different methods, is 1705±695 m, with a mean erosi...
متن کاملMountain building and mantle dynamics
[1] Mountain building at convergent margins requires tectonic forces that can overcome frictional resistance along large-scale thrust faults and support the gravitational potential energy stored within the thickened crust of the orogen. A general, dynamic model for this process is still lacking. Here we propose that mountain belts can be classified between two end-members. First, those of “slab...

the role of thematic structure in comprehending spoken language
in fact this study is concerned with the relationship between the variation in thematice structure and the comprehension of spoken language. so the study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any relationship between thematic structure and the comprehension of spoken language? 2. which of the themes would have greated thematic force and be easier for the subjects to comprehend? accord...
