Cratonization and a journey of healing: From weakness to strength
The mid-Archean to mid-Proterozoic appears to have favored the formation of cratons, stable
crustal shields underlain by unusually thick and cold mantle roots. Most of these cratons and …

Upscaling from mineral microstructures to tectonic macrostructures
Earth's plate tectonic behaviour arises from lithospheric ductile weakening and shear-
localization. The ubiquity of mylonites at lithospheric shear zones is evidence that …
