Water plays a critical role in erosion and sediment transport and this relationship is most
evident in the hyperarid Atacama Desert of Northern Chile, a region characterized by …

Abstract West and East Ganderia in the northern Appalachians and Caledonides,
respectively, represent a Gondwanan superterrane situated along the Tornquist margin of …

Abstract During the Early to Middle Palaeozoic, prior to formation of Pangaea, the Canadian
and adjacent New England Appalachians evolved as an accretionary orogen. Episodic …

High field strength element ratios in felsic volcanic rocks reflect the tectonomagmatic
evolution of a region. Th/Ta, Th/Hf, Ta/Hf, Th/Yb, and Ta/Yb ratios collectively help to define …

This paper presents new ideas on the Early Palaeozoic geography and tectonic history of
the Iapetus Ocean involved in the formation of the northern Appalachian-British Caledonide …

ABSTRACT The Canadian Appalachians are a segment of the long and narrow
Appalachian–Caledonian mountain belt, one of the Earth's classic orogens. The Canadian …

with a consideration of the effects of mountain-building and ice-sheet coverage of the …

Abstract Within the Appalachian–Variscan orogen of North America and southern Europe lie
a collection of terranes that were distributed along the northern margin of West Gondwana in …

The Killingworth dome of south-central Connecticut occurs at the southern end of the
Bronson Hill belt. It is composed of tonalitic and trondhjemitic orthogneisses (Killingworth …

Stratigraphy and isotope geochronology in the crystalline core of the Appalachians suggest
revised interpretations of the extent, nature and timing of Paleozoic orogens in New …
