These become accreted to the continental margin in the late stage of convergence (phase 3), resulting in significant continental growth.doi:10.1016/j.tecto.2004.04.017Cathy BusbyElsevier B.V.TectonophysicsBusby, C., 2004.

to the migration of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ)2,5. It is well-established that the ITCZ was unstable over Pangea during the climate transition, with its migration influenced by the deglaciation of Gondwana1,2. However, the impact of this instability on the Tethys Ocean remains ...
New spreading centers primarily develop either by the splitting of intact plates or when regions of plate convergence begin to extend. Both plate splitting and extension of convergent regions occur most often in continental, and not oceanic, lithosphere. Rifts are places where the breakup process ...
The precipitation that falls on the continents defines the extent and nature of terrestrial ecosystems and human activity in them, all of which are adapted to and maintained by present-day precipitation. In essence, precipitation is supplied by moisture that either comes directly from the ocean, or...
the Mongolian-Okhstk ocean to the north, and the Meso Tethys to the southwest, were quasi-simultaneously subducted under this continent in the earliest Jurassic, which marked the beginning of a new tectonic era called East Asia multi-plate convergence history or for short East Asia convergence....
The formation of foredeeps in the Alpine Orogenic Belt was related to convergence of the Eurasian and African-Arabian continental blocks. The Arabian Plate... A.,I.,KonyukhovB.,... - 《Lithology & Mineral Resources》 被引量: 13发表: 2007年 ...
TYPES OF PLATE MOVEMENT: Divergence, Convergence, and Lateral Slipping At the boundaries of the plates, various deformations occur as the plates interact; they separate from one another (seafloor spreading), collide (forming mountain ranges), slip past one another (subduction zones, in which plates...
In response to the collision and post-collision convergence are a series of tectono-magmatic events recorded in the Gangdese magmatic belt. These include (1) the syn-collisional LVS volcanism ( 65–40Ma) and the emplacement of southern Gangdese batholiths (a peak age of 50Ma); (2) a ...
