Tectonics and Evolution of Venus

Science, 1981
The global tectonics of Venus differs significantly from that of Earth, most markedly in that the surface is covered predominately by gently rolling terrain; there apparently are no features like ocean rises; the gravity is positively correlated with topography at all wavelengths; and the few highlands are estimated to be supported or compensated at a ...

Concerning tectonics and the tectonic evolution of the Arctic

Russian Geology and Geophysics, 2013
Abstract The particularities of the current tectonic structure of the Russian part of the Arctic region are discussed with the division into the Barents–Kara and Laptev–Chukchi continental margins. We demonstrate new geological data for the key structures of the Arctic, which are analyzed with consideration of new geophysical data ...

Metamorphism and the evolution of plate tectonics

Nature, 2019
Earth's mantle convection, which facilitates planetary heat loss, is manifested at the surface as present-day plate tectonics1. When plate tectonics emerged and how it has evolved through time are two of the most fundamental and challenging questions in Earth science1-4.

TECTONIC EVOLUTION OF THE PYRENEES

Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 1992
The Pyrenees are a part of the Alpine chain of Western Europe which runs from the northern Iberian margin in the West to the Alps in the East (Figure 1). This E-W belt is considered to be a shortened crustal domain that occupies the site of the boundary between separate Iberian and Euro­ pean plates during Cretaceous times.

Tectonic Evolution of the Yangtze Tectonic Regime

1989
The Yangtze Tectonic Regime, bounded by several great faults, consists of three parts: West Sichuan Fold Belts, Yangtze Platform and South China Fold Belts. The Sichuan Basin Ancient Core covered with thick sedimentary sequences and considered as a oldest part of Yangtze Platform was expanded step by step by accreted wedges or belts composed of trench ...

TECTONIC EVOLUTION OF ALTAIDES

Russian Geology and Geophysics, 1994
A model is proposed according to which the Paleozoic folded structures of Tien Shan, Kazakhstan, Altai, and Mongolia framing the Angarian, or Siberian, cratons and forming an orogenic collage of Altaides could originate along a single subduction boundary consisting of the Tuva-Mongolian and Kipchak arcs. As a result of the Vendian-Cambrian rifting, the
