Constructing the early Mesozoic Gangdese crust in southern Tibet by hornblende-dominated magmatic differentiation
Igneous complexes with a wide variety of lithologies in continental magmatic arcs provide a
critical insight into the composition and formation mechanism of continental crust. We report …

The lower crust of the Gangdese magmatic arc, southern Tibet, implication for the growth of continental crust
Magmatic arcs are thought to be the primary sites of modern-day continental crustal growth,
and arc crustal sections provide an exceptional opportunity to directly observe the …

Underplating of basaltic magmas and crustal growth in a continental arc: Evidence from Late Mesozoic intermediate–felsic intrusive rocks in southern Qiangtang …
Phanerozoic growth of continental crust has widely been considered as an important
geological phenomenon and mainly occurs in an arc setting. However, the crustal growth …

A 6000-km-long Neo-Tethyan arc system with coherent magmatic flare-ups and lulls in South Asia
Magmatic arcs typically exhibit non-steady-state evolution with episodic flare-ups and lulls,
yet the main drivers remain contentious. Situated in the southwest margin of Southeast Asia …
