The Franciscan Complex of California records over 150 million years of continuous E- dipping subduction that terminated with conversion to a dextral transform plate boundary …
The world's biggest Phanerozoic magmatic arcs formed above subduction zones and comprise the products of continuous magma emplacement into the crust over periods of up …
Determining whether plate tectonics or some other mode of planetary dynamics operated in the early Archean is one of the most contentious and debated areas of Earth Sciences today …
Abstract Upper Cretaceous–Eocene forearc strata deposited along the California continental margin record a complex history of plate convergence that shaped the tectonic development …

In this paper we review processes responsible for the formation of granites in subduction systems. While there is robust evidence that strongly peraluminous, so-called S-type …
Detrital zircon U-Pb geochronology has been used extensively to develop provenance histories for surface outcrops of key stratigraphic localities within sedimentary basins …
Arc lower crust plays a critical role in processing mantle-derived basaltic melts into the intermediate continental crust, yet can only be studied indirectly or in exposed arc sections …
Abstract The Puna Plateau of the Central Andes is a well-suited location to investigate the processes associated with the tectono-magmatic development of a Cordilleran system …
