This work examines the relations between the Cadomian-type peri-Gondwana blocks and
West and North Africa and Arabia (WNA) and the sediments derived therefrom during the …

The Alps, as part of the Alpine-Mediterranean Mountain chain, are one of the classical
localities for orogenic studies, where the Mesozoic-Cenozoic tectonic evolution is well …

Abstract The Yinggehai-Song Hong (Y-SH) Basin, located on the northwestern shelf of the
South China Sea, is one of the world's largest pull-apart basins. In order to identify the …

Integration of detrital zircon geochronology and three‐dimensional (3D) seismic‐reflection
data from the Molasse basin of Austria yields new insight into Oligocene‐early Miocene …

The composition of igneous rocks in the continental crust has changed throughout Earth's
history. However, the impact of these compositional variations on chemical weathering, and …

Magma-poor ocean-continent transitions at distal rifted margins record complex stratigraphic
interactions engendered by extreme crustal thinning and mantle exhumation. The Tasna …

Thinning of the continental crust during rifting is accommodated by a number of major faults,
only a few of which produce long-lived mega fault-scarps. In this paper, we investigate mega …

We studied detrital zircon from black sand of the Rhone River delta (southern France) which
drains significant parts of Western Europe. Zircon U-Pb geochronology shows that the black …

New data on the U–Pb geochronology and Hf-isotopic composition of detrital zircons, along
with the geochemistry of garnets, chromian spinel and feldspars from Permian and Triassic …

Late Palaeogene syn-tectonic volcanic products have been found in the Northern Alpine
foreland basin and in the South Alpine hemipelagic basin. The source of abundant volcanic …
