Résumé Based on a review of literature and a few case studies, this paper summarizes the
state of the art on the dating of folds and thrusts, then presents and discusses how recent …

New U–Pb and “double dating”(U–Pb and U–Th)/He) age determinations on detrital zircons
from Upper Cretaceous–Miocene formations greatly improve our understanding of both …

An extensive dataset of existing and new geo/thermochronological data from several areas
in Southern Mexico constrains the tectonic history of the region, as well as various source-to …

Our introduction to this volume highlights the most important aspects of the geology and
evolution of the southern Gulf of Mexico (GoM) and the Northern Caribbean. The onshore …

This paper provides new data on the Cretaceous geology together with existing data to
define four terranes for the Cretaceous of Jamaica. The Northeast Blue Mountain Terrane …

U–Pb calcite dating is a powerful tool for the analysis of geological processes as calcite
cements are ubiquitous and sensitive markers of diagenesis, fluid-rock interaction, fluid-flow …

We describe the orientation, number, size, distribution, and fracture spatial arrangement in
the central part of the kilometric Tuxtla-Malpaso fault system, one of the largest in the south …

The structural evolution of southern Mexico is described in the context of its plate tectonic
evolution and illustrated by two restored crustal scale cross-sections through Cuicateco and …

Fabaceae are one of the most diverse flowering-plant groups today, and in Mexico their
presence is well represented since the late Cretaceous. In this work are reported two fossil …

The concept of baseline is crucial for assessing natural water conditions and detecting
anthropogenic influences in groundwater systems. This research proposes a methodology …
