Session ID#: 16547

Session Description:
Ongoing orogenic events have resulted in development of large mountain belts and plateaux potentially driving major climate changes including the Cenozoic transition from greenhouse to icehouse conditions.  Elevation is also a first-order expression of the geodynamic and tectonic forces that build mountains.  However, the multiple controls on most paleoelevation proxies hamper quantitative reconstructions of paleoelevation.  This uncertainty hinders robust discrimination of the driving forces involved in orogenesis and surface uplift or linking climate and biological transitions to potential geological drivers.  This session seeks submissions which explore application of multiple independent empirical and/or model approaches to reconstructing past elevations.  Potential submissions may include, but are not limited to, studies which combine stable isotope approaches, climate or geodynamic models, thermochronological or geochronological approaches, and biological data.
