New geochronological and geochemical data on magmatic activity from the India-Asia collision zone enables recognition of a distinct magmatic flare-up event that we ascribe to slab breakoff. This tie-point in the collisional record can be used to back-date to the time of initial impingement of the Indian continent with the Asian margin. Continental arc magmatism in southern Tibet during 80-40 Ma...

Chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum (CRPF) malaria isolates in Southeast Asia and sub-Saharan Africa share the same Plasmodium falciparum chloroquine resistance transporter (PfCRT) haplotype (CVIET; amino acids 72 to 76). It is believed that CRPF malaria emerged in Southeast Asia and spread to sub-Saharan Africa via the Indian subcontinent. Based on this assumption, we hypothesized that...

in the current attempt, the relation between precipitation change in southern coasts of iran and sea level pressure data of ncep / ncar database were investigated through correlation method using environment to circulation approach in the period of 1960-2004. after calculating the correlation matrix between the percipitation amount and pressure, the precipitation-pressure correlation map for ea...

This paper draws on the insights from the recent developme...
