Abstract:
Events in South Asia in the 1950s and early 1960s had a long-term impact on the Cold War and on relations among the countries involved—China, India, Pakistan, the United States, and the Soviet Union. This article provides an overview of U.S. relations with South Asian countries during the early Cold War. It highlights the connections between U.S. policy priorities and commitments in South Asia on the one hand and developments in Tibet on the other. The article considers how U.S. policy priorities and actions in South Asia shaped, and were shaped by, China's reassertion of control over Tibet in the early 1950s and by the frictions that emerged between India and China in 1959 as a result of Beijing's brutal crackdown in Tibet.

Abstract:
Abstract The uplift history of south-eastern Tibet is crucial to understanding processes driving the tectonic evolution of the Tibetan Plateau and surrounding areas. Underpinning existing palaeoaltimetric studies has been regional mapping based in large part on biostratigraphy that assumes a Neogene modernization of the highly diverse, but threatened, Asian biota. Here, with new radiometric dating and newly collected plant-fossil archives, we quantify the surface height of part of the south-eastern margin of Tibet in the latest Eocene (∼34 Ma) to be ∼3 km and rising, possibly attaining its present elevation (3.9 km) in the early Oligocene. We also find that the Eocene–Oligocene transition in south-eastern Tibet witnessed leaf-size diminution and a floral composition change from sub-tropical/warm temperate to cool temperate, likely reflective of both uplift and secular climate change, and that, by the latest Eocene, floral modernization on Tibet had already taken place, implying modernization was deeply rooted in the Palaeogene.

Abstract:
This paper summarizes the taxonomic and biogeographical knowledge of Trechus species known so far from the Transhimalaya of Central Tibet and from the southern adjacent Tibetan Himalaya of Tibet and Nepal. Nine species groups are proposed, 25 new species as well as three additional new subspecies are described: The species group of Trechus antonini Deuve, 1997, with ten species newly described: T. astrophilus sp. n., T. budhaensis sp. n., T. lama sp. n., T. rarus sp. n., T. religiosus sp. n., T. singularis sp. n., T. tsampa sp. n., T. tseringi sp. n., T. yak sp. n., with an additional subspecies T. yak shogulaensis ssp. n., and T. yeti sp. n., all from South Central Tibet; the monotypic species group of the newly described Trechus chaklaensis sp. n. from South Central Tibet; the species group of Trechus dacatraianus Deuve, 1996, with two species newly described: T. bastropi sp. n., and T. mieheorum sp. n., both from South Central Tibet; the species group of Trechus franzianus Mateu & Deuve, 1979, with four species newly described: T. aedeagalis sp. n. from Far West Nepal, T. eremita sp. n. from West Nepal, T. muguensis sp. n. from West Nepal, and T. sculptipennis sp. n. from Far West Nepal; the monotypic species group of the newly described Trechus rolwalingensis sp. n. from the upper Rolwaling Valley of Central Nepal, with an additional subspecies T. rolwalingensis daldunglana ssp. n. from the lower Rolwaling Valley; the monotypic species group of the newly described Trechus solhoeyi sp. n. from South Central Tibet; the monotypic species group of the newly described Trechus stratiotes sp. n. from north eastern Saipal Himal of Far West Nepal, with an additional subspecies T. stratiotes malikasthana ssp. n. from south eastern Saipal Himal; the species group of Trechus thibetanus Jeannel, 1928, with three species newly described: T. dongulaensis sp. n., T. glabratus sp. n., and T. namtsoensis sp. n., all from South Central Tibet; the species group of Trechus wrzecionkoi Deuve, 1996, with two species newly described: T. korae sp. n., and T. martinae sp. n., both from South Central Tibet. The following two synonymies are proposed: Trechus franzianus Mateu & Deuve, 1979 = Trechus surdipennis Mateu & Deuve, 1979, syn. n.; Trechus thibetanus Jeannel, 1928 = Trechus pseudocameroni Deuve, 1996, syn. n. A key to all species known of South Central Tibet and the Tibetan Himalaya is presented for the first time, and the distributional data of all these species are mapped. The distributional maps highlight the extremely limited distribution of all wingless Trechus species. In situ speciation following the geographical separation of the range of the ancestral species and lack of subsequent range expansion of strictly edaphic species is postulated. Trechus species do not only exhibit a stronger local endemism, but the individual species groups are also endemic to several parts of the Himalayan-Tibetan Orogen. This indicates that the evolution of these Trechus species groups is directly linked to separate geological formations. Based on geological knowledge, the evolution of the species groups endemic to the Tibetan Himalaya and the Transhimalaya started already in the Miocene after these mountains were lifted up to high montane elevations. The recent distributional area of the species can therefore not be the result of range expansion during the Holocene from Pleistocene refugia outside the Tibetan Himalaya or the Transhimalaya. Instead the existence of glacial refugia can be postulated to be in the lower parts of the same mountain slope on which the species occur today. These results clearly challenge the theory of a Tibetan inland ice sheet stretching through the Himalayan transverse valleys during the Last Glacial Maximum.

Full text
Abstract:
Ophiolite complexes emplaced onto the Indian passive margin sequence in southwest Tibet represent the largest thrust sheet of the Neo-Tethyan oceanic crust and mantle that is preserved along the Yarlung Tsangpo Suture Zone (YTSZ). Field observations, petrological, geochemical and geochronological studies have revealed the supra-subduction zone (SSZ) type ophiolitic rocks formed in two different time frames, c. 127-124 Ma and c. ?4 Ma. The Early Cretaceous suite comprises voluminous mantle rocks, with subordinate mafic and ultramafic intrusions, while plutonic rocks are exposed locally. A shear zone complex probably representing a transform fault zone is also present. Geochemical analysis shows that the crustal rocks evolved from MORB-like to IAT to boninitic magmatism. The Late Cretaceous suite is represented by limited exposures of basaltic lavas, which have MORB-like geochemical compositions. Petrographic and geochemical evidence indicates that the majority of the mantle rocks are residues after extraction of MORB-type magma, which subsequently reacted with boninitic melts in a SSZ. Sub-ophiolite melange zones contain diverse rock types set in a serpentinte or mudstone matrix. Amongst a variety of lithologies, mid Jurassic and mid Cretaceous radiolarian cherts are exposed. Alkaline seamount volcanic rocks of inferred mid Cretaceous age were also found interbedded with cherts or overlain by limestones. Ophiolitic tholeiitic rocks were also included in the melange zones, two of which have 4°Ar_39Ar whole rock ages of c. 86 and 106 Ma. Evidence from the ophiolites and associated melange zones suggests that an intra-oceanic subduction zone initiated in the Early Cretaceous in this part of Neo-Tethyan Ocean. This SSZ system continued at least for c. 40 Ma, from the Early Cretaceous to Late Cretaceous.

Full text
Abstract:
The Xigaze forearc basin records the evolution of the southern Lhasa terrane convergent margin, largely affected by Neo-Tethyan subduction processes, prior to the Paleocene Tethyan Himalaya-Eurasia collision. New geologic mapping and U-Pb detrital-zircon geochronologic data from the Lazi region, 340 km southeast of Lhasa, show that forearc basin sedimentation began ca. 110 Ma conformably atop the Yarlung-Tsangpo ophiolitic melange. By this time, the arc-trench system along the southern margin of the Lhasa terrane (Eurasia) consisted of an accretionary complex, overlying ophiolitic melange, the Xigaze forearc basin, and the Gangdese magmatic arc. There is no geological evidence in the Lazi region for more than one subduction zone between the southern Lhasa terrane margin and India. Sedimentological facies analysis from Albian to Santonian clastic and carbonate sedimentary rocks preserved in the Xigaze forearc basin indicate deep-marine sedimentation characterized by hemipelagic carbonate and volcanogenic sediment-gravity-flow deposits. Sandstone modal petrographic and U-Pb detrital-zircon geochronologic data reveal Asian continental margin, Gangdese magmatic arc, and central to northern Lhasa terrane provenance. During this time, basin fill was deposited in cycles of high and low sediment flux characterized by alternating successions of clastic turbidite inner- to outer-fan deposits and hemipelagic limestone and marlstone sequences. Along-strike differences in the timing of initial forearc basin sedimentation are likely the result of intra-basin topography and/or diachronous development of ophiolitic forearc basement.

Abstract:
The uplift history of the Tibetan Plateau is poorly constrained in part due to its complex and extended tectonic history. This study uses basin analysis, stable isotope analysis, magnetostratigraphy, detrital zircon U-Pb dating, and paleoaltimetry, and frequency analysis to reconstruct the tectonic, spatial, and environmental evolution of the Zhada basin in southwestern Tibet since the late Miocene. The Zhada Formation, which occupies the Zhada basin and consists of ~ 850 m of fluvial, alluvial fan, eolian, and lacustrine sediments, is undeformed and lies in angular unconformity above Tethyan sedimentary sequence strata. The most negative Miocene δ¹⁸Opsw (paleo-surface water) values reconstructed from aquatic gastropods are significantly more negative than the most negative modern δ¹⁸O(sw) (surface water) values. In the absence of any known climate change which would have produced this difference, we interpret it as indicating a decrease in elevation in the catchment between the late Miocene and the present. Basin analysis indicates that the decrease in elevation was accomplished by two low-angle detachment faults which root beneath the Zhada basin and exhume mid-crustal rocks. This exhumation results from ongoing arc-parallel extension and provides accommodation for Zhada basin fill. Sequence stratigraphy shows that the basin evolved from an overfilled to an underfilled basin but that further evolution was truncated by an abrupt return to overfilled, incising conditions. This evolution is linked to progressive damming of the paleo-Sutlej River. During the underfilled portion of basin evolution, depositional environments were strongly influenced by Milancovitch cyclicity: particularly at the precession and eccentricity frequencies.

Abstract:
2008/2009
The area of the present study is the central part of southern Tibet. It consists of two accreted terranes, Lhasa and Himalaya terranes, which today record the deformation history that originated from the processes of collision between the Eurasia and India plates. Our study of the crust/mantle structure in terms of seismic velocity, density, anisotropy and petrologic composition are undoubtedly significant to deepen the understanding of the continent-continent collision and its dynamics. This PhD thesis can be briefly summarized into four parts that are listed in the following. 1) In order to reveal the characteristics of the crust/mantle deformation that has been generated by the Indian/Eurasia collision in the southern Tibet plateau, we study the propagation of Quasi-Love (QL) waves. Our study is based on the results from numerical modeling, which proved that QL is sensitive to lateral variation of seismic anisotropy, rather than heterogeneity and other factors. The results we obtain from processing locally observed seismograms, reveal a West-East variation of crust/mantle deformation in each terrane of the plateau. 2) A 3D density model of central-south Tibet is produced by modeling the Bouguer gravity field using all existing constraints. 3) Integrating seismic velocity and density models of the crust in the Lhasa and Himalaya terranes, we infer crustal composition models in central and southern Tibet. 4) Combining crustal density, velocity and mineralogical composition models, some important issues, such as the Indian slab subduction angle, and the relationship between crustal density and earthquake occurrences are discussed. Some results based on the gravity modeling are summarized as follows: 1) under the constraint of the geometrical structure defined by seismic data, a 3-D density model and Moho interface are proposed for central-south Tibet; 2) the lower crustal density, smaller than 3.2 g/cm3, suggests the absence of eclogite or partial eclogitization due to delamination under the central-south Tibet; 3) seismicity is strong or weak in correspondence of the most negative Bouguer gravity anomaly, so there is not a relationship between them; 4) the composition of the lower crust, determined after the temperature-pressure calibration of seismic P wave velocity, might be one or a mixture of: 1. amphibolite and greenschist facies basalt beneath the Qiangtang terrane; 2. gabbro-norite-troctolite and mafic granulite beneath the Lhasa terrane. When using the data set published by Rudnick & Fountain (1995), the composition of the middle crust turns out to be granulite facies and might be pelitic gneisses. Granulite facies used to be interpreted as residues of partial melting, which coincides with the previous study by Yang et al. (2002) on partial melting in the middle crust. Amphibolite facies are thought to be produced after delamination, when underplating works in the rebound of the lower crust and lithospheric mantle. From the seismology study, I have made the following conclusions: 1) through numerical simulation of surface wave propagation in heterogeneous media, we find that amplitude and polarization of surface wave only change a little when considering heterogeneity and QL waves, generated by surface wave scattering, are caused by lateral variation of anisotropy. 2) QL waves have been identified from the seismograms of selected paths recorded by the Tibetan station CAD, and are utilized to determine the variation of the uppermost mantle anisotropy of the Tibetan plateau. The location of the azimuthal anisotropy gradient is estimated from the group velocities of Rayleigh wave, Love wave and QL wave. We find that a predominant south-north lateral variation of azimuthal anisotropy is located in correspondence of the Tanggula mountain, and a predominant east-west lateral variation of azimuthal anisotropy is found to the north of the Gandese mountain (near 85°E longitude and 30°N latitude) and near the Jinsha river fault (near 85°E longitude and 35°N latitude).

Abstract:
In contrast to the oceans, deformation in the continental lithosphere is distributed over broad regions. This dissertation is composed of three separate but related studies investigating the kinematics and dynamics of such deformation. The first two studies look at the Makran subduction zone, and the third focusses on deformation in South East Tibet. The first study is an investigation of the 11 May 2013 M w 6.1 Minab earthquake which occurred at the western end of the Makran subduction zone, adjacent to the transition to continent-continent collision in the Zagros mountains. Seismological, geodetic and field results are used to study the source parameters and slip distribution of this earthquake, and demonstrate that the earthquake was left-lateral and occurred on a fault striking ENE–WSW; approximately perpendicular to previously studied faults in the adjacent Minab-Zendan-Palami fault zone. Geological and geomorphological observations of similar faults in the vicinity are used to infer that vertical-axis rotations allow a series of such faults to accommodate ∼15–19 mm/yr of N–S right-lateral shear. The dynamic implications for the transition between subduction and continental collision are discussed. The second study looks at the Makran region as a whole. First, the shape and depth of the interface with the Arabian plate is constrained by modelling the depths and mechanisms of earthquakes across the region, and combining these with additional seismological constraints. These constraints on the subduction interface are used to investigate elastic strain accumulation on the megathrust in the western Makran, which has important implications for seismic and tsunami hazard in the region. Second, the kinematics at the northern edge of the Makran accretionary prism are investigated using a combination of geodetic and geomorphological observations, addressing the long-standing tectonic problem of how the right-lateral shear taken up by strike-slip faulting in the Sistan Suture Zone in eastern Iran is accommodated at the zone’s southern end. Finally, the kinematics and dynamics of the accretionary prism are investigated. By considering the kinematics of the 2013 Balochistan and Minab earthquakes, local gravitational and far-field compressive forces in the Makran accretionary prism are inferred to be balanced. This force balance allows the mean shear stress and effective coefficient of friction on the Makran megathrust to be calculated, 5–35 MPa and 0.01–0.03 respectively. The final part of this thesis focusses on the temporal evolution of topography in South East Tibet. Recently published paleoaltimetry results based on stable-isotope geochemistry are used to provide constraints on vertical motions. These demonstrate that uplift is much slower than had previously been suggested from thermochronometric data. Numerical modelling of the time evolution of a gravitationally-driven fluid is used to investigate the effect of lateral rheological contrasts on the shape and evolution of topography. In such a flow, material at the surface can be transported hundreds of kilometres, an effect which should be accounted for in paleoaltimetric analysis. Lateral rheological contrasts, analogous to the relatively undeforming Sichuan Basin and Central Lowlands of Myanmar, can reproduce the main features of the present-day topography, GPS velocity field and earthquake-derived strain rate without the need for a low-viscosity lower-crustal channel.

Abstract:
The Tibetan Plateau is by far the largest region of high elevation, averaging just above 5,000 metres above sea level, and the thickest crust, between 70 and 90 kilometres thick, anywhere in the world. This huge plateau region is very flat—lying in the internally drained parts of the Chang Tang in north and central Tibet, but in parts of the externally drained eastern Tibet, three or four mountain ranges larger and higher than the Alps rise above the frozen plateau. Some of the world’s largest and longest mountain ranges border the plateau, the ‘flaming mountains’ of the Tien Shan along the north-west, the Kun Lun along the north, the Longmen Shan in the east, and of course the mighty Himalaya forming the southern border of the plateau. The great trans-Himalayan mountain ranges of the Pamir and Karakoram are geologically part of the Asian plate and western Tibet but, as we have noted before, unlike Tibet, these ranges have incredibly high relief with 7- and 8-kilometre-high mountains and deeply eroded rivers and glacial valleys. The western part of the Tibetan Plateau is the highest, driest, and wildest area of Tibet. Here there is almost no rainfall and rivers that carry run-off from the bordering mountain ranges simply evaporate into saltpans or disappear underground. Rivers draining the Kun Lun flow north into the Takla Makan Desert, forming seasonal marshlands in the wet season and a dusty desert when the rivers run dry. The discovery of fossil tropical leaves, palm tree trunks, and even bones from miniature Miocene horses suggest that the climate may have been wetter in the past, but this is also dependent on the rise of the plateau. Exactly when Tibet rose to its present elevation is a matter of great debate. Nowadays the Indian Ocean monsoon winds sweep moisture-laden air over the Indian sub-continent during the summer months (late June–September). All the moisture is dumped as the summer monsoon, the torrential rains that sweep across India from south-east to north-west.

Abstract:
To understand how the Himalaya were formed it seemed logical to start at the actual zone of plate collision, the Indus suture zone. Most of this collision zone runs across southern Tibet, which in the 1970s was almost impossible to travel through. Following Mao Tse-tung’s Red Army’s invasion and occupation of Tibet in October 1950, that region had remained firmly closed to all foreigners. In the western Himalaya the Indus suture zone runs right across the northernmost province of Ladakh. Ladakh used to be a part of southwestern Tibet before the British annexed it during the Raj. Leh, the ancient capital of Ladakh at 3,500 metres in the Indus Valley, was the final outpost of British India before the great trans-Himalayan barrier of the Karakoram Range. Only the Nubra Valley and the Tangtse Valley north of Leh were beyond the Indus, and these valleys led directly up to the desolate high plateau of Tibet. Leh was a major caravan route and a crossroads of high Asia, with double-humped dromedary camel caravans coming south from the Silk Route towns of Yarkhand and Khotan; Kashmiris and Baltis came from the west and Indian traders from the Hindu regions of Himachal and Chamba to the south. Ladakh, Zanskar, and Zangla were three ancient Himalayan kingdoms ruled by a Giapo, or King, each from a palace that resembled a small version of the Potala Palace in Lhasa. In 1978, when we were climbing in the mountains of Kulu, I had looked from our high summits across to the desert mountains of Lahoul and Zanskar, north of the main Himalayan watershed. Here, in the ancient Buddhist kingdoms of Zanskar and Ladakh lay wave upon wave of unexplored and unclimbed mountains. They lay north of the monsoon limits and in the rain shadow of the main Himalaya, so the vegetation was sparse, and the geology was laid bare. Flying north from Delhi, or east from Kashmir into Leh, the views were simply mesmerizing.

Abstract:
Nepal is a country of over 28 million people, a multi-ethnic nation of more than 125 languages and a great variety of cultures. Hinduism is the major religion. Buddhism and animism also have a strong presence. Islam and Christianity are minority faiths, the latter of which is a growing religion but it is still not fully recognised by the government and suffers persecution. Christianity arrived in Nepal in 1662, when Italian Capuchin priests passed through Nepal en route to Tibet. During the 1970s churches started to grow in various parts of the country, though Christians were not allowed to preach and conversion to Christianity was prohibited. Today, there is estimated to be about 6,000 congregations, with the number rapidly increasing. Evangelism and church planting have been the heart of Nepalese Christianity, as pioneers of evangelistic and church-planting activities have made a great contribution to the growth of the church in Nepal from the 1950s. Community churches, where people gather for worship within their own local areas, are becoming more popular than denominational churches. The churches, both through their own programmes and in cooperation with other theological institutions, have developed formal theological education to equip their leaders and members.
