Oroclines in the Tasmanides

RJ Musgrave - Journal of Structural Geology, 2015 - Elsevier
Oroclines are features of orogenic belts that exhibit curvature in plan on a map scale, with
the additional requirement that this curvature resulted from relative rotation of the limbs …

Lithospheric controls on magma composition along Earth's longest continental hotspot track

DR Davies, N Rawlinson, G Iaffaldano, IH Campbell - Nature, 2015 - nature.com
