Research Interests
Interests of my research include understanding the (1) petrogenesis of granitoids and continental crustal evolution; (2) tempora-spatial distribution of magmatism along Himalaya syntaxis and Tibet and applications of Sr-Nd-Hf-Os-O isotopes to reveal geodynamics; (3) petrology of crust-mantle tranzition in Myanmar and Pakistan arc; and (4) Applications of low temperature thermochronology such as FT and He dating in Gangdese Batholith.
