Is it a direct impact or an indirect impact (meaning plate tectonic happened earlier in the history of your landform)?

Explanation:

The himalayan range and Tibetan plateau have formed as a result of the collision between the Indian Plate and Eurasian Plate which began 50 million years ago and continues today. 225 million years ago (Ma) India was a large island situated off the Australian coast and separated from Asia by the Tethys Ocean.

Plate tectonic theory tells us that how the evolution of various landforms took place. In this process the lithosphere is broken into large Rocky plates which lie on a molten layer of rock called as asthenosphere. Basically three types of movements takes place:- convergent, divergent and transform.

Convergent plate boundaries results in the formation of folds or subduction. The famous example of this is Pacific Ring of Fire. Divergent plate boundaries results in earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. The example can be of Mid-atlantic Ridge. When plates move past one another without converging or diverging, they form transform plate boundary. The example can be San Andreas Fault.

225 million years ago, India was located at 20 degree south latitude and was seperated from the Eurasian plate by Tethys sea. The supercontinent Pangaea broke up and India started drifting northwards. Then it collided with the Eurasian plate, leading to the formation of Himalayas.

It is said that India is still moving northwards and the height of Himalayas is still increasing.
