Congratulations to Dr Ana Gibbons, Dr Sabin Zahirovic, Dr Joanne Whittaker and Dr Yatheesh Vadakkeyakath, whose paper “A tectonic model reconciling evidence for the collisions between India, Eurasia and intra-oceanic arcs of the central-eastern Tethys” is now the third-most downloaded paper on Gondwana Research over the last 90 days!

In addition, a plate tectonic animation based on the paper has recently been added to NOAA’s Science on a Sphere database by Sabin. See previous news post:
EarthByte’s plate tectonic animation added to NOAA’s SOS database
The NOAA post and video clip have had nearly 95,000 views in a couple of days, and almost 3000 Facebook shares! This is by far the largest impact any of our research has had online on social media.
