Abstract: The Tibetan Plateau was raised by the collision of India and Asia. Scientists often speak of it as if describing a piston that has risen as a single unit 20 million years ago, but now there are signs that the relatively unexplored northeastern part of the plateau was uplifted 15 million years earlier, perhaps contributing to global cooling at the time.
