Extending full-plate tectonic models into deep time: Linking the Neoproterozoic and the Phanerozoic
Recent progress in plate tectonic reconstructions has seen models move beyond the
classical idea of continental drift by attempting to reconstruct the full evolving configuration of …

Metacraton: nature, genesis and behavior
In this paper, we show with examples that cratons involved in intercontinental collisions in a
lower plate position are often affected by orogenic events, leading to the transformation of …
