Chinese Scientists Uncover Luolong Basin Uplift History, Plateau Growth
Chinese scientists have reconstructed the uplift history and environmental changes of the Luolong Basin in eastern Xizang autonomous region from 54 million to 43 million years ago, helping better understand the growth process of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the interactions between deep earth dynamics and surface environments. The first author of the study, Zhao Chenyuan, is a PhD student at the Institute of Tibetan Plateau Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
