The Paleozoic Variscan orogeny was a large-scale collisional event involving amalgamation of multiple continents and micro-continents. Existing data, suggests oroclinal buckling of an …
Cadomian orogenic processes and their continuum to the opening of the Rheic Ocean were modeled by making use of new LA-ICP-MS U–Pb ages from detrital zircons of sedimentary …

The early evolution of SW Europe Variscides started by opening of the Rheic ocean at∼ 500 Ma, splitting Avalonia from Armorica/Iberia. Subduction on the SE side of Rheic generated …
The presence of oceanic Paleozoic sequences in the Iberian Variscan Fold Belt is used to identify and separate suspected exotic terranes from a reference Iberian Autochthon Terrane …
The Society makes every effort to ensure that the scientific and production quality of its books matches that of its journals. Since 1997, all book proposals have been refereed by …

The Ibero-Armorican Arc is the main Variscan macrostructure in western Europe. Although it was recognized in the 1920s, its genesis is still debatable and the proposed models for its …
Abstract Ediacaran and Early Cambrian sedimentary rocks from NW Iberia have been investigated for detrital zircon U–Pb ages. A total of 1,161 concordant U–Pb ages were …

Abstract The Ordovician of Scandinavia (ie Denmark, Norway and Sweden) has been investigated for over two centuries and, through time, various chronostratigraphic schemes …
By confronting different geological and geophysical data, we attempt to reconstruct the Variscan–Alleghanian orogenic belt, with especial emphasis on the links between Iberia …
