The youngest palm fossil record in Tibet suggests that there was no high Tibetan Plateau until the Neogene.
The growth of the Tibetan Plateau throughout past 66 million years has profoundly affected Asian climate, but how this unparalleled orogenesis might have driven vegetation and plant diversity changes in eastern Asia is poorly understood. We approach question by integrating modeling results fossil data. show that north northeastern Tibet affects and, crucially, altering monsoon system. This northern orographic change induces a precipitation increase, especially dry (winter) season, resulting...
Significance The ancient topography of the Tibetan Plateau and its role in biotic evolution are still poorly understood, mostly due to a lack fossil evidence. Our discovery ∼47-Mya plant fossils from present elevation 4,850 m central Tibet, diminishes, significantly, that knowledge. represent humid subtropical vegetation some 70 different forms show affinity Early-Middle Eocene floras both North America Europe. Using leaf architecture, we calculate forest grew at ∼1,500-m within an east–west...

The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment Follow-On (GRFO) mission precisely measures the inter-satellite range between centers of mass its twin satellites to map earth’s gravity field. baseline ranging measurement is achieved using K-band (KBR) system, which sensitive satellite attitude variations caused by offset center KBR antenna phase center. Accurate decoupling from requires precise determination KBR’s vectors (AOVs). To address this, GRFO conducted eight calibration maneuvers on 17...
Abstract The attenuation property of earth media can lead to amplitude loss and phase dispersion effects on multicomponent elastic data. Ignoring their impacts during imaging process will result in blurred dislocated profiles. To accurately characterize the effect viscoelastic media, we first derive a new wave equation with decoupled fractional Laplacians. Numerical tests show that proposed capture propagation characteristics seismic waves media. Furthermore, our be modified yield...
Abstract The biodiversity history on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau (QTP) has remained unclear for a long time. Recent paleobotanical investigations provide opportunities revealing phytogeographic QTP in deep time and testing phylogeographic hypotheses. Lagokarpos is an extinct genus with unknown modern affinities. It easily distinguished by its fruits, which have two wings elliptical fruit body. Previously, fossils only been found from North America Germany, ranging latest Paleogene to early...
Abstract The Eocene-Oligocene transition (EOT; ~34 million years ago) marks a critical shift from greenhouse to an icehouse climate. Whereas temperatures derived marine records show consensus ~ 4°C cooling worldwide, there is emerging picture that the terrestrial realm experienced heterogenous response rapid climate change. Here, we reconstruct 8-million-year temperature record across EOT at tectonically unresolved location margins of Tibetan Plateau, Lühe Basin (Yunnan, China). Our...
The Eocene-Oligocene transition (EOT; ~34 million years ago) marks the critical from a greenhouse to an icehouse climate. Temperatures derived marine records show consensus ~4°C cooling worldwide; however, there is emerging picture that terrestrial realm had heterogenous response rapid climate change. Here, we reconstruct 8-million-year temperature record across EOT at tectonically unresolved location margins of Tibetan Plateau, Lühe Basin (Yunnan, China). Our multi-proxy...
The Late Paleogene surface height and paleoenvironment for the core area of Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) remain critically unresolved.Here, we report discovery youngest well-preserved fossil palm leaves from Tibet.They were recovered (Chattian), ca.25.5 ± 0.5 million years, paleolake sediments within Lunpola Basin (32.033°N, 89.767°E), central QTP at a present elevation 4655 m.The anatomy palms renders them intrinsically susceptible to freezing, imposing upper bounds on their latitudinal...
It is a hot project to research Shanghai World Expo (SWE) influencing transportation. Based on factor analysis, three periods quantitative evaluation mathematic model of world expo impact transportation established. By using principal component analysis algorithm and method, the results are obtained.
Abstract. The complex tectonic evolution in the Tibetan region has impacted climate, Asian monsoon system, and development of major biodiversity hotspots, especially since onset India-Eurasia continental collision during early Paleogene. Untangling links between geologic, climatic, ecological history broader can provide insights into these Earth system mechanisms, relevant for future our rapidly changing planet. To better understand environmental conditions across this critical time place,...
