  abstract = {{T}he tectonic and topographic history of the {H}imalaya-{T}ibet orogenic system remains controversial, with several competing models that predict different exhumation histories. {H}ere, we present new low-temperature thermochronological data from the {M}ount {E}verest region, which, combined with thermal-kinematic landscape evolution modeling, indicate asymmetric exhumation of {M}ount {E}verest consistent with a scenario in which the southern edge of the {T}ibetan {P}lateau was located > 100 km farther south during the mid-{M}iocene. {N}orthward plateau retreat was caused by erosional incision during the {P}liocene. {O}ur results suggest that the {S}outh {T}ibetan {D}etachment was a localized structure and that no coupling between precipitation and erosion is required for {M}iocene exhumation of {G}reater {H}imalayan {S}equence rocks on {M}ount {E}verest.},
