The non-cylindrical character of the Variscan Belt is established via a description of its most
salient geological characteristics and correlations among the main and relatively minor …

The Variscides of Europe and N-Africa are the result of the convergence of the plates of
Gondwana and Laurussia in the Paleozoic. This orogen is characterized by the juxtaposition …

As the chronicle of plate motions through time, paleogeography is fundamental to our
understanding of plate tectonics and its role in sha** the geology of the present-day. To …

The Rheic Ocean, which separated Laurussia from Gondwana following the closure of
Iapetus, is arguably the most important ocean of the Palaeozoic. Its suture extends from …

Detailed global plate motion models that provide a continuous description of plate
boundaries through time are an effective tool for exploring processes both at and below the …

Abstract The European Variscan belt is a unique orogen that is covered by comprehensive
sets of seismic and potential field data from the Iberian Peninsula in the west to the Polish …

The Rheic Ocean was one of the most important oceans of the Paleozoic Era. It lay between
Laurentia and Gondwana from the Early Ordovician and closed to produce the vast Ouachita …

This work is based on the compilation and re-evaluation of the most significant data, either
personal or from the literature, concerning the Moroccan Variscides. The latter constitute the …

特提斯是地球显生宙期间位于北方劳亚大陆和南方冈瓦纳大陆之间的巨型海洋,
它在新生代期间的闭合形成现今东西向展布的欧洲阿尔卑斯山, 土耳其-伊朗高原 …

An integrated interpretation of the late Paleozoic structural and geochronological record of
the Iberian Massif is presented and discussed under the perspective of a Gondwana …
