Excerpt

The Himalayan–Tibetan orogen is the youngest and most spectacular of all the continent–continent collisional belts on Earth, which occupies high-altitude Himalaya and Karakorum ranges in the south and the Tibetan plateau to the north (Yin and Harrison 2000). This orogenic system was largely created by the Indo-Asian collision over the past ~60 Ma (Hu et al. 2016; An et al. 2021). In the southern Tibet of China, this orogen belt is east–west trending and extends more than 1000 km. From north to south, it can be divided into 5 tectonic units including the Gangdese Arc, Xigaze Forearc Basin, Yarlung Zangbo Suture Zone and Tethys Himalayas (Tibetan Himalayas). In this field trip, the geological characteristics of typical outcrops of different units will be investigated. Each of the unit experienced complicated history of evolution related to the subduction and closure of Neo-Tethys Ocean. Additionally, the paleoceanographic conditions of eastern Tethys Ocean are archived in the marine sedimentary successions and will be investigated including several hyperthermal events. …
