Multi-plate convergence around a nuclear block and the geodynamic transition occurred
generally after the onset of plate tectonics. Late Triassic to Middle Jurassic geodynamics of …

Abstract During the Late Paleozoic to Cenozoic, with the closure of the Tethys oceans, the
East and/or Southeast Asia was amalgamated by individual blocks. In order to understand …

Late Mesoproterozoic igneous rocks have been traditionally thought to mark Grenvillian
orogens and are thus widely used for the reconstruction of Rodinia. In the southwestern …

The provenance of Jurassic to Cretaceous sediments in the Sichuan Basin is constrained by
sandstone petrology and detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology, which provide critical insights …

Zircon is a widely used accessary mineral, and zircon saturation in silicate melts has many
applications in geology. Based on the original model proposed by Watson and Harrison …

The metasedimentary basin-fill successions of the Central Lapland belt, Peräpohja belt, and
Kuusamo belt form an important part of the northern Fennoscandia Shield. They each record …

Based on the data of outcrops, seismic sections, thin sections, heavy mineral assemblages
and detrital zircon U-Pb dating, the sedimentary characteristics, lake level fluctuation and …

Lacustrine shale has garnered significant attention due to its significant resource potential.
The Jurassic shale in the Sichuan Basin is an important target for lacustrine shale …

Abstract The Late Triassic was a key period for the evolution of the western Sichuan Basin
from marine to continental sedimentation. However, the provenance of the earliest …

Abstract The Triassic Qinling Orogenic Belt was formed during the closure of the Paleo-
Tethys Ocean, and its evolution can be traced by provenance analysis of sediments in the …
