On the Subduction Polarity Beneath the Semail Ophiolite

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.
The Semail ophiolite and the UAE‐Oman mountain range offer a rare window into continental subduction and exhumation. Despite almost half a century of conflicting studies, the geometry and number of subductions that characterized the formation of the ...
