Syn-convergence flow inside and at the margin of orogenic plateaus: Lithospheric-scale experimental approach [PDF]
International audienceThis study investigates three-dimensional flow modes of orogenic plateaus by means of physical modeling. Experiments consist of shortening two contiguous lithospheres of contrasting strength, one being a weak plateau-type ...

Using U-Th-Pb petrochronology to determine rates of ductile thrusting: time windows into the Main Central Thrust, Sikkim Himalaya [PDF]
Quantitative constraints on the rates of tectonic processes underpin our understanding of the mechanisms that form mountains. In the Sikkim Himalaya, late structural doming has revealed time-transgressive evidence of metamorphism and thrusting that ...

The Temporal Evolution of Subduction Initiation in the Samail Ophiolite: High-Precision U–Pb Zircon Petrochronology of the Metamorphic Sole [PDF]
High-precision dating of the metamorphic sole of ophiolites can provide insight into the tectonic evolution of ophiolites and subduction zone processes. To understand subduction initiation beneath a young, well-preserved and well-characterized ophiolite,

The Age of Granulite-Facies Metamorphism in the Ivrea-Verbano Zone (NW Italy) Determined Through in Situ U-Pb Dating of Garnet [PDF]
Rates of melt production, extraction and crystallization, as well as scales of melt transfer and interaction with their residuum change continuously in migmatite and granulite, affecting the behavior of monazite and zircon as time capsules.
