Cenozoic thermal evolution of the Central Rhodope Metamorphic Complex (Southern Bulgaria)
We have combined new titanite, zircon, and apatite fission-track and apatite [U–Th–(Sm)]/He analyses with previously published U–Pb, Rb–Sr, and 40Ar/39Ar thermochronological data to reconstruct the Cenozoic therm...

Rapid incision of the Mekong River in the middle Miocene linked to monsoonal precipitation
The uplift of orogenic plateaus has been assumed to be coincident with the fluvial incision of the gorges that commonly cut plateau margins. The Mekong River, which drains the eastern Qiangtang Terrane and sou...

First thermochronological constraints on the Cenozoic extension along the Balkan fold-thrust belt (Central Stara Planina Mountains, Bulgaria)
The Balkan fold-thrust belt, exposed in Bulgaria and north-east Serbia, is part of the north-east vergent segment of the bi-vergent Eastern Mediterranean Alpine orogen. It was formed during two distinct compre...

Open AccessLoess Plateau storage of Northeastern Tibetan Plateau-derived Yellow River sediment
Marine accumulations of terrigenous sediment are widely assumed to accurately record climatic- and tectonic-controlled mountain denudation and play an important role in understanding late Cenozoic mountain upl...

Low-temperature constraints on the Cenozoic thermal evolution of the Southern Rhodope Core Complex (Northern Greece)
The South Rhodope Core Complex (SRCC) of Northern Greece is probably the most studied metamorphic core complex of the Rhodope Massif, and yet its geological evolution has not yet been fully unravelled, especia...
