Produktbeschreibung

Consisting of papers that have appeared in International Geology Review, this book focuses on Middle American terranes in which tectonic processes for orogenic development are examined at various times from the late Mesoproterozoic at 1 Ga, through the Paleozoic and into the Cenozoic. Many papers relate the evolution of the Middle American terranes over the past billion years to global scale events. A second theme running through the book relates to the supercontinents, Rodinia and Pangea, the geometry of their amalgamation and breakup, and the processes responsible. The combination of respected contributors, expert editorial guidance, and coverage of current and emerging theories makes this book an essential resource.
