Forearc Depressions Develop in Warm Subduction Zones by Underplating‐Induced Crustal Flexure

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a model for forearc depression formation in warm subduction zones. Forearc depressions overlie some ocean‐continent subduction zones and form between a forearc high and volcanic arc. Forearc highs coincide with 51–91 mGal free‐air gravity anomalies and km‐scale reflector bands in seismic sections, indicating they comprise crust ...

Orogenward Migration of the Flexural Forebulge: A Response to Increased (Sub)surface Loading in the Orogenic Core?

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The flexural profile of a foreland basin is controlled by lower plate strength and the magnitude of (sub)surface loads. Assuming that lower plate strength remains largely constant during flexure, changes in the flexural profile hint at reorganisations of (sub)surface loading.

Pegmatites of Southern California [PDF]

open access: yes, 1954
For many years the southern California region has attracted the attention of geologists interested in pegmatites and pegmatite deposits, largely because of the well-known gem and lithium occurrences in San Diego and Riverside Counties. These world-famous

Petrogenesis of melanite-garnets in monzodiorites from SW of Jandaq (NW of Central-East Iranian Microcontinent)

open access: yesJournal of Economic Geology
The Godar-e-Siah Eocene monzodiorite stock is located in the southwest of the Jandaq area (NE of Isfahan) and northwest of the Central-East Iranian Microcontinent (CEIM). The main minerals in these monzodiorites are plagioclase, K-feldspar, clinopyroxene,

New Geochronological Constraints on the Late Palaeozoic Tarija Basin, Southern Bolivia: Tectonic and Palaeoclimatic Implications

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Carboniferous‐Permian Tarija basin of southern Bolivia evolved under major tectonic and climatic influence. The timing of transition from glacially influenced to arid conditions, after the Gondwanide tectonic event, has been based mainly on palynological correlations.

Infiltration of basinal fluids into high-grade basement, South Norway: sources and behaviour of waters and brines

open access: yes, 2003
Quartz veins hosted by the high-grade crystalline rocks of the Modum complex, Southern Norway, formed when basinal fluids from an overlying Palaeozoic foreland basin infiltrated the basement at temperatures of c.220degreesC (higher in the southernmost ...
