• Uplift-driven diversification in the Hengduan Mountains, a temperate biodiversity hotspot (2017, background): “During the early to middle Miocene, the southern QTP had already achieved its current elevation (15) and was covered by coniferous and deciduous-leaved forests (36, 37).”
• Evolutionary origin of species diversity on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (2021, background): “…(Qushui and Gangdese around Lhasa) occurred (Copeland et al., 1995); between 15 and 13 Ma, the Himalayas were probably elevated to a high elevation (Spicer et al., 2003; Ding et al., 2017; Spicer, 2017; Manish & Pandit, 2018); between 8 and 7Ma, some platform regions experienced a rapid uplift…”

• Slow dynamics of the Northern Hemisphere glaciation (2005, background): “Here the precise timing of when this movement became climatologically effective is not accurately constrained and might have been well before the NHG start [Raymo and Ruddiman, 1992; Molnar et al., 1993; Spicer et al., 2003 ].”
