  abstract = {{T}hermochronometry is used to better understand the processes responsible for {C}enozoic magmatism and exhumation of the {C}hiapas {M}assif {C}omplex that spans a diffuse triple junction between the {C}aribbean, {N}orth {A}merican and {C}ocos plates. {A} combination of zircon {U}-{P}b, apatite fission tracks, ({U}-{T}h)/{H}e as well as numerical modeling show contrasting histories. {E}xhumation started earlier in the south (-16 {M}a) relative to the north (-9 {M}a). {N}orthern exhumation is related to activity on the {T}onal & {PRIME};a fault system, while to the south it may be correlated with transpressive deformation in {C}hiapas fold-and-thrust belt. {T}he southern block also experienced significant topographic growth from -5 {M}a to -1 {M}a followed by intense erosion. {O}verall, the pattern of uplift agrees with the 'closing zipper' model in which a forearc sliver is progressively incorporated to the {N}orth {A}merican plate. {T}hermal models also support a {P}leistocene decrease in topography consistent with independent paleoenvironmental and geomorphologic evidence.},
