▪ Abstract Fission track analysis as a geological dating tool was first proposed in the early
1960s. The past 10 years has seen a major expansion in application to more general …

Thermochronology, the use of temperature-sensitive radiometric dating methods to
reconstruct the time-temperature histories of rocks, has proved to be an important means of …

The apatite fission-track method is used to determine the exhumation history of the Olympic
subduction complex, an uplifted part of the modern Cascadia accretionary wedge. Fission …

The large scale structure of the earth is caused by geodynamic processes which are
explained using energetic, kinematic and dynamic descriptions. While" geodynamic …

Low temperature thermochronologic techniques (eg apatite fission track (AFT)
thermochronology and (U–Th)/He dating) constrain near-surface T–t paths and are often …

The influence of surface topography on the form of steady-state isotherms during erosion-
driven denudation is investigated. This is of particular interest to the interpretation of low …

Apatite fission track thermochronology (AFTT) on granitic samples collected in the central
Alaska Range in conjunction with geologic constraints from basins to the north (Nenana …

Both erosion and surface topography cause a time-dependent variation in isotherm
geometry that can result in significant errors in estimating natural exhumation rates from …

The Pyrenees are a collisional mountain belt formed by convergence between the Afro–
Iberian and European plates. Apatite fission track thermochronology from three vertical …

During the late Cenozoic the Pacific plate has been converging obliquely with the Australia
plate in South Island, New Zealand. A result of this convergence has been the growth of a …
