Validating models of channel flow, ductile extrusion and exhumation : the Greater Himalayan Sequence, Annapurna Massif

Himalayan orogenesis is commonly explained with models of channel flow, in which the metamorphic core, referred to as the Greater Himalayan Sequence (GHS), forms a partially molten, rheologically weak mid-crustal flow. Geochronological and thermobarometric studies from the Himalaya provide support f...
