Water plays a critical role in erosion and sediment transport and this relationship is most
evident in the hyperarid Atacama Desert of Northern Chile, a region characterized by …

The exhumation of high‐pressure metamorphic rocks requires either the removal of the
overburden that caused the high pressures, or the transport of the metamorphic rocks …

Microtectonics deals with the interpretation of microstructures, small-scale deformation
structures in rocks that yield abundant information on the history and type of deformation and …

An examination of lithological, geochemical, geochronological, structural and metamorphic
P–T path data suggests that the basement of the North China Craton can be divided into …

A metamorphic devolatilization model can explain the enrichment, segregation, timing,

The basement rocks in the eastern zone of the North China craton are composed
predominantly of pretectonic tonalitic-trondhjemitic-granodioritic gneisses and syntectonic …

Major intrusions of granitic rocks are found in several tectonic settings and, in all cases,
crustal melts may contribute to the volumes of granitic magma. High-grade metamorphism …
