Why is the collision of the Indian Plate with the Eurasian Plate considered a mechanism for cooling climate over the Cenozoic? a. The Uplift-Weathering hypothesis - the rise of the Tibetan Plateau and the Himalaya mountains enhanced physical/chemical weathering reduced atmospheric CO2 b. "The BLAG hypothesis as the Tibetan Plateau was forming, volcanism from mid-ocean ridges made the monsoon stronger
c. "Plants decreased on the landscape as the Tibetan Plateau was forming, leading to more CO2 being taken out of the atmosphere" d. "The collision caused the seal levels to change, and corals began rapidly taking up CO2 out of the atmosphere to survive."
