摘　　要：The Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau(QTP)is well known as the Roof of the World,the Third Pole and the Asian Water Tower.It spans a vast area from the Pamir Plateau in the west to the Longmenshan-Hengduan Mountains in the east,from the Himalaya Mountains in the south to the Kunlun-Qilian Mountains in the north.It stretches approximately 1,200 km from north to south and 2,500 km from east to west.When did the QTP start to uplift?This is still controversial between early and late Cenozoic scenarios.While some scholars advocated its uplift since the India-Asia continental collision at about 65 million years ago in the Paleogene(e.g.,Ding et al.,2017,2022),and the others suggested its uplift since the Miocene(Zheng and Wu,2018).
