However, determining the geological mechanisms responsible for long-term upper crustal thermal fluxes recorded is often hindered by the fact that thermochronology data are conventionally interpreted in a present-day, regional geographic framework. Here, we present a novel workflow for placing low-temperature thermochronology data and thermal history modelling results into numerical plate tectonic, mantle dynamic and paleoclimate reconstructions. Using a compilation of published fission-track and (U-Th)/He data and inverse thermal history models from Central Asia, we show how placing thermochronology data in a paleogeographic context can help untangle the geodynamic, tectonic and climate drivers of deep-time exhumation histories. This analysis shows that the diachronous Mesozoic-to-recent (230-0 Ma) exhumation history of Central Asia was largely controlled by the reactivation of crustal-scale Paleozoic heterogeneities in response to plate kinematics and Tethyan subduction dynamics, with dynamic topography and changes in paleoprecipitation playing a relatively insignificant role.
