ABSTRACT The low closure temperature of the dating system in low‐temperature thermochronology allows shallow crustal movements to be recorded. In recent decades, this approach has been used extensively in studies of orogenic belt exhumation, sedimentary basin evolution, and topographic and geomorphologic evolution. A substantial portion of the data for East Asia is documented in both Chinese and English literature, so establishing a unified database greatly enhances data reuse, which is crucial for studying regional geological evolution. This paper compiles data from four low‐temperature thermochronology methods—zircon fission track, zircon (U‐Th)/He, apatite fission track and apatite (U‐Th)/He—for East Asia. Based on these data, a comprehensive low‐temperature thermochronology database for East Asia has been established. It includes details of sample source (source literature, lithology, geological age), location (longitude, latitude, elevation), experimental methods, measurement results and related measurement information. Currently, the database contains 8804 sample records and 10,751 dating results from 1010 literature sources. The database is designed to help researchers understand the current research landscape, avoid redundant data collection, and prevent reprocessing of the same samples.
