Available lithostratigraphic, tectonothermal, geochronological and paleomagnetic data from
2.1–1.8 Ga collisional orogens and related cratonic blocks around the world have …

Geological and paleomagnetic data support the hypothesis that a Paleo-Mesoproterozoic
supercontinent, referred to as Columbia, existed before the formation of Rodinia. This pre …

Periodic assembly and dispersal of continental fragments has been a characteristic of the
solid Earth for much of its history. Geodynamic drivers of this cyclic activity are inferred to be …

This paper presents a brief synthesis of the current state of knowledge on the formation and
break-up of the early-Neoproterozoic supercontinent Rodinia, and the subsequent assembly …

Prior to participating in Rodinia, the East European Craton (Baltica) had undergone a
complex process of development. Many of the structures, which were important during the …

This article reviews the geology of the Sveconorwegian orogen in south Scandinavia and
existing tectonic models for the Mesoproterozoic to Neoproterozoic Sveconorwegian …

Between 1.8 and 1.0 Ga (Grenville-age), a series of subparallel accretionary orogens were
added progressively to the southern edge of Laurentia. These belts now extend from …

The Sveconorwegian orogenic belt is situated at the southwestern margin of Fennoscandia.
It is one of the classical, well-exposed Grenvillian orogenic belts (Fig. 1)(Berthelsen 1980) …

Palaeomagnetic data are used to study the configurations of continents during the
Proterozoic. Applying stringent reliability criteria, the positions of the continents at 12 times in …

We identify 304 mafic magmatic events ranging in age from ca. 3500 Ma to the present and
assess their potential for linkage to the arrival of mantle-plume heads. For each, we …
