摘　　要：0 INTRODUCTION The landscape evolution of mountain belts links rock uplift caused by tectonic deformation in the lithosphere to fluvial erosion and deposition driven by climatic precipitation in the atmosphere.The Himalayas,one of the most typical mountain belts in the world,are undergoing the strong collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates and the strong South Asian monsoon precipitation(Figure 1a).It is a natural laboratory to research the evolution mechanisms of orogenic growth involving tectonic and climatic processes.In addition,it is a good prototype to advance and verify many research methods in multiple disciplines.The Indian-Eurasian collision initiated since the Early Paleogene(ca.50 Ma)based on geological,stratigraphic,and palaeomagnetic records(Ding et al.,2022;van Hinsbergen et al.,2012),causing an early slow topographic change in the Himalayas until the Neogene(ca.23 Ma)(Ding et al.,2022).
