Fossil Record of Miocene Hominoids (2013, background): “…of the polar ice caps, and the Asian monsoons), leads to a sequence of connections and barriers to terrestrial faunal exchange (Rögl 1999a, b; Adams et al. 1999; MacLeod 1999; Hoorn et al. 2000; Zhisheng et al. 2001; Guo et al. 2002; Liu and Yin 2002; Wilson et al. 2002; Nargolwalla 2009).”
Slow dynamics of the Northern Hemisphere glaciation (2005, background): “A strengthening of the east Asian monsoon from 3.6 to 2.6 Ma [Zhisheng et al., 2001] could also have strengthened the weathering process.”
Mountains of Southern China as “Plant Museums” and “Plant Cradles”: Evolutionary and Conservation Insights (2011, background): “…to mountain formation: some are very old and highly eroded, and their origin can be traced back to the early Tertiary or before (Hsü 1983; Wang 1985), whereas others were not built until very recent times (eg Hengduan Mountains, probably uplifted during the last 3 million years; An et al 2001).”
Centres of plant endemism in China: places for survival or for speciation? (2011, neutral): “, 2000) or immediately before (Harrison et al., 1992; An et al., 2001) the Pliocene and Pleistocene.”
Biogeographical diversification of mainland Asian Dendrobium (Orchidaceae) and its implications for the historical dynamics of evergreen broad‐leaved forests (2016, positive): “Understanding the historical dynamics of the development of Asian EBLFs is further complicated by complex geographical events, including the uplift of the Himalayas (An et al., 2001), and by climatic changes, such as the establishment of the Asian monsoon (Sun & Wang, 2005) and climate changes durin”
Fossil mammals resolve regional patterns of Eurasian climate change over 20 million years (2002, background): “The distinct change from the middle to the late Miocene seen here can be taken to coincide with a major phase of uplift in the Higher Himalayas (Amano and Taira, 1992) and the Tibetan Plateau about 10 million years ago (An et al., 2001) and with evidence of major contemporaneous environmental change”
The role of the uplift of the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau for the evolution of Tibetan biotas (2015, background): “…records for the Palaeogene and Neogene suggest that these changes included the establishment of the monsoon system (Early Miocene; Sun & Wang, 2005; Guo et al., 2008) and its progressive intensification (Zhisheng et al., 2001; Liu & Yin, 2002; Huntington, Blythe & Hodges, 2006; Wan et al., 2007).”
A tale of worldwide success: Behind the scenes of Carex (Cyperaceae) biogeography and diversification (2019, background): “That colonization predates by about 12 Mya the detected diversi ﬁ cation shift at the Late Miocene (8.2 Mya), a period where a major uplift of the Himalaya and neighboring mountains has been reported (Zhisheng et al., 2001) together with cooling on the Qinghai ‐ Tibetan Plateau (Favre et al., 2015).”
Tibetan plateau aridification linked to global cooling at the Eocene–Oligocene transition (2007, background): “Given the low sedimentation rates, we argue that the following can explain the absence of these short intervals: (1) insufficient sampling resolution (average 1.”
