The pre-Andean and Andean orogenies are separated by a Mesozoic transitional period, which is marked by a very different style of tectonism and magmatism. |
|
Subduction under Asia continues in the Tethysides and contributes to tectonism in the Alpide plate boundary zone. |
|
The area presents a wide range of landforms related to erosion, tectonism and glaciation. |
|
Major Cambrian and early Ordovician tectonism affected large areas of Gondwana in what are now Australia, Antarctica, and Argentina. |
|
Multiphase tectonism in Antarctica is called the Ross Orogeny, and in Australia it is known as the Delamerian Orogeny. |
|
Nd and Sr isotopic data were presented from the Archaean-Proterozoic boundary in North and East Tanzania to constrain the nature of Neoproterozoic tectonism in the Mozambique belt. |
|
North of the Alpide plate boundary zone are the vast expanses of Siberia, where the absence of seismic activity and the subdued relief indicate an absence of active tectonism. |
|
Ongoing tectonism of the Innamincka Dome and the growth of linear dunes during the Late Pleistocene and Holocene have further disrupted drainage in this area of South Australia. |
|
Hovius N Controls on sediment supply by large rivers, relative role of Eustasy, climate, and tectonism in continental rocks. |
|
The thick lithosphere predicted by these models appears to be inconsistent with even a low level of ongoing volcanism and tectonism. |
|
Furthermore, changes in continental weathering and riverine contributions to the oceans may also be linked with climate, and hydrothermal inputs vary with tectonism. |
