Research Interest

Research Interests:

Paleomagnetism, tectonics, paleogeographic reconstructions of Tibetan terranes/blocks as well as kinematic evolution and drift history of the Lhasa, Qiangtang terranes of Tibet during Late Paleozoic-Mesozoic time within the Eastern Tethys Realm. 
Restoration of vertical-axis rotations surrounding the eastern and western Himalayan syntaxes and crustal shortening occurred on the Asian side since onset of India-Asia collision through Cenozoic time.
Research Fields: Paleomagnetism and Geochronology, tectonics of Tibetan Plateau.
