Triassic southeastward subduction of North China Block to South China Block: Insights from new geological, geophysical and geochemical data
Lithospheric subduction prior to the assembly of the South China and North China blocks is
traditionally considered to be directed northward. However, some critical geological and …

Ivrea mantle wedge, arc of the Western Alps, and kinematic evolution of the Alps–Apennines orogenic system
The construction of five crustal-scale profiles across the Western Alps and the Ivrea mantle
wedge integrates up-to-date geological and geophysical information and reveals important …

Cross-propagation of the western Alpine orogen from early to late deformation stages: Evidence from the Internal Zones and implications for restoration
The internal zones of the Western Alps arc are derived from an oceanic and continental
subduction wedge developed beneath the Adria plate during its paleogene northward drift …

Contrasting styles of (U) HP rock exhumation along the Cenozoic Adria‐Europe plate boundary (Western Alps, Calabria, Corsica)
Since the first discovery of ultrahigh pressure (UHP) rocks 30 years ago in the Western Alps,
the mechanisms for exhumation of (U) HP terranes worldwide are still debated. In the …

Shallow subduction beneath Italy: Three‐dimensional images of the Adriatic‐European‐Tyrrhenian lithosphere system based on high‐quality P wave arrival times
This paper presents a velocity model of the Italian (central Mediterranean) lithosphere in
unprecedented detail. The model is derived by inverting a set of 166,000 Pg and Pn seismic …

Two-stage Triassic exhumation of HP–UHP terranes in the western Dabie orogen of China: constraints from structural geology
Abundant exposures of widely-distributed HP–UHP metamorphic rocks in the western part of
the Dabie orogen enable us to study the tectonic evolution of HP–UHP terranes associated …

Tectonic mode switches and the nature of orogenesis
The birth and death of many mountain belts occurs in lithosphere that over-rides major
subduction zones. Here the tectonic mode (shortening versus extension) can abruptly …

Divergence in subduction zones and exhumation of high pressure rocks (Eocene Western Alps)
Exhumation of high-pressure rocks has long remained a controversial issue in the Earth
sciences. In this article, we analyze the tectono-metamorphic, stratigraphic and plate-motion …

The Alps 1: A working geodynamic model for burial and exhumation of (ultra) high-pressure rocks in Alpine-type orogens
Abstract Eocene (ultra) high-pressure ((U) HP) rocks exposed in the Western Alps are
generally interpreted to result from subduction of European continental crust beneath Adria …
