Domain-specific¶
- Uplift
- Tectonic uplift occurs where lithospheric plates converge and one overrides the other: the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates has elevated the Tibetan Plateau to an average of 4,500 m and continues to raise the Himalaya at measured geodetic rates of several millimetres per year.
This sourceReports spirit-levelling uplift of 2-3 mm/yr in the Lesser Himalaya and 4-6 mm/yr in the Greater Himalaya from Indian-Eurasian convergence.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This work's DOI is recorded above but has not been resolved against an external catalogue, so nothing here confirms the work exists.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
