3D Petro‐Structural Evolution of the High Pressure‐Low Temperature Phyllite‐Quartzite Nappe Pile in Southern Peloponnese, Greece

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Tectonic underplating of high‐pressure/low‐temperature (HP‐LT) tectonic slices is a key mechanism in crustal growth at convergent margins. Yet, the processes controlling the geometry, depth and sequence of underplating events remain poorly constrained.

The Buday'ah Formation, Sultanate of Oman: A Middle Permian to Early Triassic oceanic record of the Neotethys and the late Induan microsphere bloom

open access: yes, 2012
International audienceThe Middle Permian to Lower Triassic Buday'ah section, exposed in the Oman Mountains, is the first deep-sea section to be described in the Neotethys. The oceanic sediments were deposited along the southern Tethys margin in the newly

Outcrop-scale evidence for the Norian-Rhaetian extensional tectonics in the Slovenian Basin (Southern Alps)

open access: yesGeologija, 2012
No direct evidence for the Norian-Rhaetian tectonic activity has been gathered from the Slovenian territoryuntil now. In the quarry in the vicinity of Škofja Loka, several palaeofaults transect the outcropping Bača Dolomite.The Norian-Rhaetian age of the

TRIASSIC STRATIGRAPHY AND SEDIMENTARY EVOLUTION OF THE ANNAPURNA TETHYS HIMALAYA (MANANG AREA, CENTRAL NEPAL)

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2017
After initial opening of Neotethys in the Permian, thermal subsidence and deepening continued in the Triassic. In the Scythian, three pelagic nodular carbonate intervals of Early Griesbachian to Early Dienerian, Early to mid-Smithian and latest Smithian ...

Late Permian rift-related volcanic rocks from the Zhongba Terrane, Southern Tibet: implications for the opening of the Neotethys

open access: yes, 2022
The questions of how and when the Neotethys Ocean opened are crucial for understanding the evolution of the Tethys Realm and the break-up of Gondwana. However, the evolution of the Neotethys remains controversial.

The Jurassic–Cretaceous depositional and tectonic evolution of the southernwestern margin of the Neotethys Ocean, Northern Oman and United Arab Emirates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The concept that the autochthonous, parautochthonous and allochthonous Permian–Cretaceous sequences in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Oman record the transition from platform, slope to basin sedimentation within the southern part of Neotethys has ...

Ediacaran to Jurassic geodynamic evolution of the Alborz Mountains, north Iran: geochronological data from the Gasht Metamorphic Complex

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Geosciences
The Alborz Mountains in north Iran underwent several tectono-metamorphic events during opening and closure of the Palaeotethys and Neotethys Oceans. These events are recorded by rare and discontinuously exposed metamorphic rocks, such as the HP-LT Asalem-

Kinematics of the Central Taurides during Neotethys closure and collision, the nappes in the Sultan Mountains, Turkey

open access: yesInternational Journal of Earth Sciences, 2013
In the Central Taurides, the Sultan Mountains comprise in ascending order the Cimendere unit and the Aksehir, Doganhisar, Cay nappes composed of metasedimentary sequences deposited from Cambrian to Tertiary. The overthrust of the Cay nappe on the Lutetian Celeptas formation representing the uppermost stratigraphic position in the Cimendere unit ...

Kinematics of a former oceanic plate of the Neotethys revealed by deformation in the Ulukışla basin (Turkey)

open access: yesTectonics, 2016
AbstractKinematic reconstruction of modern ocean basins shows that since Pangea breakup a vast area in the Neotethyan realm was lost to subduction. Here we develop a first‐order methodology to reconstruct the kinematic history of the lost plates of the Neotethys, using records of subducted plates accreted to (former) overriding plates, combined with ...
