文摘The collisional Himalayan orogen is commonly presented as largely laterally uniform from the NW–to NE–Himalaya,with almost similar geological and tectonic settings.Despite active continuous convergence and precipitation since many million years in the Himalaya,thermochronological/cooling age pattern,uplift and exhumation rates vary in different parts of NW–and NE–Himalaya as a function of structural positions such as dome/window/synform,klippen/nappe structures and thrusting/back-thrusting along different major faults.
