Diachronous Paleozoic accretion of peri-Gondwanan terranes at the Laurentian margin

open access: yesGeological Society, London, Special Publications, 2018
In the original Wilson cycle, the northern Appalachian–Caledonide orogen resulted from the collision of two continental masses separated by a single ocean.

The Margaree orthogneiss: an Ordovician, peri-Gondwanan, mafic-felsic igneous complex in southwestern Newfoundland

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2000
The igneous protoliths of the Margaree orthogneiss intruded the peri-Gondwanan rocks of the Port-aux-Basques Complex, in the southwestern corner of the Hermitage Flexure, prior to regional deformation and metamorphism.

Atypical peri-Gondwanan granodiorite–tonalite magmatism from Southern Iberia. Origin of magmas and implications

open access: yesLithos, 2020
An ensemble of fifteen granodiorite/tonalite plutons and minor intrusions was generated during Cambro-Ordovician times (ca. 498–462 Ma) at the margin of Gondwana, which occupies a large portion of the Central Iberian Zone of the Iberian Massif (Spain and

Exchanging Genes Within a City: Analysis of Pollen Flow Patterns in a Narrow Endemic Plant Species Threatened by Urbanisation. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Anthropogenic habitat fragmentation can severely disrupt gene flow in endemic plants that depend on species‐specific native pollinators with limited dispersal ability. Using paternity analysis across fragmented and continuous populations, we found that pollen flow was maintained in intact bushland but was completely absent between fragments separated ...

Early evolutionary history of the seed. [PDF]

open access: yesBiol Rev Camb Philos Soc
ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

60 years of the Serbo-Macedonian Unit concept: From Cadomian towards alpine tectonic frameworks [PDF]

open access: yesGeološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva, 2020
The study represents a summary of the hitherto tectonic concepts revolving around a peri-Gondwanan fragment referred to as the Serbo- Macedonian Unit. The Serbo-Macedonian Unit as a gneiss-dominated basement segment is positioned in the proximity of the ...

The tectonic significance of peri-Gondwanan Late Neoproterozoic-Early Palaeozoic felsic peraluminous magmatism

open access: yesEarth-Science Reviews
[EN] We provide a thorough review of the literature on peraluminous magmatism of Late Neoproterozoic and Early Palaeozoic (mostly Late Cambrian-Middle Ordovician) age cropping out in many places around the world (SW South Africa, NE Patagonia, NW Argentina, Colombia, SE Mexico and Guatemala, the European Variscan Massifs and from Turkey to northern ...

ON PALEOTECTONIC BELONGING OF THE SUVANYAK METAMORPHIC COMPLEX (SOUTHERN URALS) FROM THE U-Th-Pb DATING OF DETRITAL ZIRCON GRAINS

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2023
U-Th-Pb isotope dating of grains of detrital zircon from quartzites of the Suvanyak metamorphic complex, which forms the Suvanyak tectonic unit that forms the western part of the Uraltau uplift, located in the east of the West Ural megazone in the ...

Detrital zircon similarities and dissimilarities between the Iberian Pyrite Belt, Ossa-Morena Zone and Meguma

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2022
Despite the so-called exotic nature of the South Portuguese Zone relatively to the other major domains of the Iberian Massif of peri-Gondwanan affinity, Devonian detrital rocks of the oldest strata in the Iberian Pyrite Belt have a remarkable resemblance

Was the Kalkarindji Continental Flood Basalt Province a Driver of Environmental Change at the Dawn of the Phanerozoic?

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
