Abstract

The Red River originates from SW China and SE Tibet and has a total length >1000 km. In this study, we present new U‐Pb dating and Hf isotopic analysis of zircon grains, from both modern and paleoriver sands in order to constrain the provenance of the modern river and to decipher drainage evolution ...
