THE BELOMORIAN ECLOGITE PROVINCE (EASTERN FENNOSCANDIAN SHIELD, RUSSIA): MESO-NEOARCHEAN OR LATE PALEOPROTEROZOIC?

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2020
A critical discussion of competing models of the geodynamic nature (oceanic or continental subduction) and age (Meso-Neoarchean or Late Paleoproterozoic) of the eclogite facies metamorphism in the Belomorian eclogite province (BEP) is based on the ...

FAULT SYSTEMS IN THE UPPER CRUST OF THE FENNOSCANDIAN SHIELD, THE EAST EUROPEAN PLATFORM

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2020
Directions of 683 faults located in the southeastern part of the Fennoscandian (Baltic) shield were statistically analyzed, and three orthogonal associations of fault systems were identified in the study area.

Petrogenesis and Tectonic Setting of Late Mesozoic Felsic Magmatic Rocks in the Wangmushan Mining District, Northern Fujian, South China

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
The rhyolitic ignimbrite and K‐feldspar granite porphyry from the Wangmushan mining district, northern Fujian yield ages of 173.8 ± 0.8 and 102.6 ± 0.4 Ma, respectively. Geochemical data, zircon trace elements, whole‐rock Sr–Nd–Pb isotope data, and zircon Hf isotopic compositions indicate that the rhyolitic ignimbrite originated from partial remelting ...

Late Quaternary lake filling and drying in northern Australia's largest freshwater lake

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lake Woods, Jurrkulu, is northern Australia's largest freshwater lake filled today in strong Indo–Australian summer monsoons (IASM) to maximum depths of ~5 m. On the western margins of the lake, two large arcuate ridges occur 20 to 40 m above the lake floor and inset within these are other mid‐elevation lake deposits, such as depositional ...

Tectonic Juxtaposition of Two Independent Paleoproterozoic Arcs by Cenozoic Duplexing in the Arun Tectonic Window of the Eastern Nepalese Himalaya

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The tectonic evolution of the Himalayan orogenic belt before Cenozoic convergence is important to understand its modern structural framework. There is still controversy regarding the tectonic history of the lower Lesser Himalaya Sequence (LHS) in the ...

Microplate Tectonics Through Earth History and Across Solid Multispheres

open access: yesGeological Society of China Bulletin, EarlyView.
The evolution of tectonic microplates throughout Earth´s history as well as the transitions between microplates across different solid spheres offers a novel approach to expanding the traditional plate tectonics theory. ABSTRACT The evolution of tectonic microplates throughout Earth's history as well as the transitions between microplates across ...

Paleoproterozoic Plate Tectonics Recorded in the Northern Margin Orogen, North China Craton

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
The occurrence of plate tectonic processes on Earth during the Paleoproterozoic is supported by ca. 2.2–1.8 Ga subduction‐collision orogens associated with the assembly of the Columbia‐Nuna supercontinent. Subsequent supercontinent breakup is evidence by
