The Asian continent consists of many continental blocks that assembled during the
Phanerozoic, accompanied by widespread granitoids. By compiling a series of digital maps …

The Altaids is generally considered to be the largest Phanerozoic accretionary orogen on
Earth, but it is unclear whether it was associated with extensive continental crustal growth …

The interplay between continental motions during the assembly of Pangaea and late
