Full‐Waveform Seismic Tomography of the Upper Mantle Beneath the Arabia‐Eurasia Collision Zone

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Despite being one of the most recent major orogenic events, the timing of the Arabia‐Eurasia collision is still debated. Much of the discrepancy arises due to uncertainties over the amount of continental subduction of the Arabian passive margin and the timing of a hard collision of cratonic Arabian lithosphere with Eurasia.

Detrital zircon record and tectonic setting [PDF]

, 2012
Funding: University of St AndrewsDetrital zircon spectra reflect the tectonic setting of the basin in which they are deposited. Convergent plate margins are characterized by a large proportion of zircon ages close to the depositional age of the sediment,

Tracing Orogenic Evolution From Multi‐Detrital Mineral Records: U‐Pb Geochronology and Trace‐Element Constraints From Glacial Diamictites

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Integrating multiple detrital mineral systems provides a powerful framework for reconstructing source‐region tectonothermal evolution because different minerals record complementary aspects of magmatic and metamorphic processes. Glacial diamictites are particularly valuable for this approach because extensive glacial erosion can sample broad ...

Multiple Subduction–Exhumation Cycles and Episodic Hydration–Metasomatism of an Oceanic Eclogite Block: Implications for Thermal Structure Evolution and Mass Transfer at the Subduction Interface

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The rarity of natural rocks that specifically record the physicochemical conditions of the subduction interface strongly hampers pertinent studies on metamorphic trajectories of high‐pressure (HP) rocks and related fluid–rock interactions. This study examines an oceanic eclogite block from the Huwan shear zone in the Hong'an orogen.

Revisiting orogens during the OROGEN project: tectonic maturity, a key element to understand orogenic variability

BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
By demonstrating that extensional inheritance plays a decisive role in the formation of orogens, recent studies have questioned the ability of a unique, complete Wilson cycle model to explain the diversity of collisional orogens.

The Size of Greater India: Estimates by Comparing the Apparent Polar Wander Paths of the Tethyan Himalaya and the Indian Craton

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The northern extent of Greater India is a critical, yet highly debated, parameter for reconstructing the India‐Asia collision. Previous paleomagnetic estimates, including the fill‐the‐gap and fixed great circle approaches, yield widely varying results, spanning from ∼200 to ∼3,000 km. These large discrepancies stem principally from two primary

Development of a transverse to orogen parallel extension lineation in a complex collisional setting, Trans-Hudson Orogen, Manitoba, Canada

, 2002
In the southeastern Trans-Hudson Orogen (THO), the wide dispersion in orientation of the L3 extension lineation from orogen-parallel to transverse is considered primary as it cannot be accounted for by simple overprinting of a single precursor ...

Subduction Recycling and Closure of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean in the Beishan Orogen: Constraints From the Niujuanzi Ophiolitic Mélange and Associated Intrusions

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Ophiolitic mélanges and associated intrusions provide key archives for reconstructing the evolution of ancient ocean basins and subduction‐related mantle modification. The Hongliuhe–Niujuanzi–Xichangjing ophiolitic mélange in the central Beishan Orogen preserves important records of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean, but the timing of oceanic subduction ...

Late Triassic E-W striking shear zone and its implication on gold mineralization in the Xiaoqinling area, eastern China

Frontiers in Earth Science
The Xiaoqinling area is located in the eastern part of the Qinling Orogen and experiences early and late Mesozoic gold mineralization controlled by structural deformation. The relationship between the two stages of mineralization and the orogenic process
