Domain-specific¶
- Uplift
- Tectonics and structural geology — orogenic-belt evolution with uplift rate as a measured field quantity from thermochronology, cosmogenic-nuclide dating, and geodesy (the Himalaya from the Indian-Eurasian collision). Geomorphology — landscape-evolution models coupling uplift rate to fluvial incision and hillslope diffusion, with the steady-state landscape resting on uplift–erosion balance. Paleoaltimetry — reconstructing past surface elevations from stable-isotope (δ¹⁸O, δD) and paleobotanical proxies to infer uplift histories. Climate-tectonics coupling — the Raymo-Ruddiman hypothesis that plateau uplift altered monsoon circulation and drew down Cenozoic CO₂ through silicate weathering.
This sourceAdvances the hypothesis that Tibetan-plateau uplift and the chemical weathering it drove decreased atmospheric CO2 over the past 40 Myr.

“Global cooling in the Cenozoic, which led to the growth of large continental ice sheets in both hemispheres, may have been caused by the uplift of the Tibetan plateau and the positive feedbacks initiated by this event.”

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.
