文摘The Late Triassic is one of the key breakup periods of the eastern Gondwana margin and early-stage evolution of the Neo-Tethys,which traversed Laurasia and Gondwana at that time.A series of Late Triassic marine sedimentary sequences,preserved within the Himalaya(e.g.Tethyan Himalaya)of southern Tibet,provides crucial and reliable information for understanding geological evolution processes.
