Tibet is a very sacred place for the world's scientists, a vast landscape on the northern side of Himalayas. It has gained fame as the "The Third Pole of the World". A recent research suggests the collision between India-Asia continental resulted in the formation of the Tibetan Plateau.
An article has been published about this in the journal of Science China-Earth science. It is named as “Processes of initial collision and suturing between India and Asia". However, lead author Ding Lin from the Institute of Tibetan Plateau Research has studied dozen of research paper on this collision. After that, he has come to a conclusion that in the case of peripheral foreland techno sedimentary plays a very significant role. At the same time, paleomagnetism represents an evidence of alternative research.
Based on the latest report by Eureka Alert, this conflict first occurred in the in the center of the Yarlung Tsangpo suture zone (YTSZ) between ca. 65 Ma and 63 Ma. It is still expanding both eastwards and westwards. Experts claimed that this ongoing process of collision between India-Asia has affected the Tibet and as well as central and southeast Asia.
This India-Asia plate collision is one of the most spectacular events to occur over 500 million years ago reported by Financial Express. In the year of 1980s and 1990s, researchers first proposed both continents initially dashed with western syntaxis ca. 55 Ma. The earlier collision between India-Asia continents has several impacts. First of all, a larger scale subduction occurred within the Tibetan Plateau along with main suture zone which is near about 1300km long.
Secondly, this subduction would have generated deformation effects across central Asia. Finally, the volcanic rock and mineral deposits and it would have formed within the continental subduction belts. Moreover, as a result of this India-Asia conflict, the Himalaya had a growth steadily towards the south. When the Himalaya's border crosses the Proto-Tibetan plateau, then there is a strong humidity in the inter climate of plateau, which eventually corrected South Asian Monsoon into the current pattern.
