Tectonometamorphic Evolution of the Greater Himalayan Sequence of Bhutan

9705855喜马拉雅山霍利斯特长期以来一直被认为是大陆-大陆碰撞的一个例子，尽管存在各种后勤和政治问题，但仍得到了相当多的研究。很明显，沿着喜马拉雅的走向，印度与亚洲碰撞的表现形式是不同的。这项研究是位于东喜马拉雅山脉不丹王国的一个国际项目的一部分，在那里，一些证据表明，不丹的高喜马拉雅晶体以热韧性物质的形式向南挤出，在较冷的岩石上渗透流动，冷却得足够快，可以在变质反应中保持温度反转。这项工作涉及对主要中央冲断和其他形变区附近收集的样本进行广泛的温压测量。预计结果将有助于理解这种大陆-大陆碰撞中的高水平韧性挤压过程。

9705855 Hollister The Himalaya has long been recognized as an example of continent-continent collision, and has received considerable study despite various logistical and political problems. It is apparent that manifestation of the collision of India with Asia are different along the trend of the Himalayas. This study is part of an international project in the Kingdom at Bhutan, eastern Himalayas where some evidence indicates that the Higher Himalayan crystallines of Bhutan extruded south as a hot ductile penetratively flowing mass over cooler rocks and cooled rapidly enough to preserve temperature inversions in metamorphic reactions. The work involves extensive thermobarometry on samples collected near the main central thrust and other deformation zones. Results are expected to contribute to understanding of the processes of high-level ductile extrusion in such continent-continent collisions.
