In part two of the exercises for the final two weeks of the course we will combine the thermochronometer age prediction code used last week with an age dataset from the Bhutan Himalaya to quantify the long-term rates of erosion recorded in the thermochronometer data. These results will be presented in detail in your final report for the course.
