The City of London in the Asian crisis - Clark, Gordon L.; Wójcik, Dariusz
This paper seeks to understand the Asian crisis through the eyes of the City of London. Relying upon material provided by The Financial Times (FT), we construct an index of pessimism to chart the dominant City of London interpretation of the path of the crisis. This index is set against data on the actual performance of the Hong Kong, and Tokyo, London, and New York stock markets over the same period. We have the luxury of retrospectively reconstructing the actual path of the crisis whereas the FT (and global financial markets) had to respond to specific events in a chain...

The structural geometry, metamorphic and magmatic evolution of the Everest
massif, High Himalaya of Nepal-South Tibet - Searle, M.P.; Law, R.D.; Parrish, R.R.; Waters, D.J.
Abstract: This paper presents a new geological map together with cross-sections and lateral sections of the
Everest massif. We combine field relations, structural geology, petrology, thermobarometry and geochronology
to interpret the tectonic evolution of the Everest Himalaya. Lithospheric convergence of India and Asia since
collision at c. 50 Ma. resulted in horizontal shortening, crustal thickening and regional metamorphism in the
Himalaya and beneath southern Tibet. High temperatures (.620 8C) during sillimanite grade metamorphism
were maintained for 15 million years from 32 to 16.9 0.5 Ma along the top of the Greater Himalayan slab.
This implies that crustal thickening must also have been active during this time,...
