Across the entire mantle we interpret 94 positive seismic wave-speed anomalies as subducted lithosphere and associate these slabs with their geological record. We document …
Abstract Field, petrographic, geophysical, geochronological, elemental and isotopic data support the identification of distinct components of a Wilson cycle (rift-drift-subduction …
Continental arcs in Cordilleran orogenic systems display episodic changes in magma production rate, alternating between flare ups (70–90 km 3 km− 1 Myr− 1) and lulls (< 20 km …
Timing and distribution of magmatism, deformation, exhumation, and basin development have been used to reconstruct the history of Laramide flat‐slab subduction under North …
As zircon U-Pb geochronology has become a leading method in sediment provenance studies and basin analysis over the past 20 years, the volume of detrital zircon data made …
The perception that plutonic bodies are structurally simple is disappearing with the recognition of an array of magmatic structures useful for constraining hypersolidus temporal …
Geologic mapping and associated U-Pb geochronologic work in the Stibnite-Edwardsburg area of central Idaho have provided regional geologic context for the gold-antimony …
The existing paradigm for the major ca. 56–48 Ma subduction zone reorganization in the Pacific Northwest of North America is that:(1) the Siletzia large igneous province erupted …
The Cretaceous intrusive units of the Sahwave and Nightingale ranges in northwestern Nevada, USA, located between the Sierra Nevada and Idaho batholiths, represent a critical …
