The nature of long-lived Appalachian terrane boundaries: Gravity constraints on the boundary between Laurentian crust, the Tugaloo terrane and the Brevard zone in North Carolina Grant uri icon

abstract

  • The goal of this project is to better understand the nature of Appalachian terrane boundaries and how such crustal boundaries can be reactivated throughout multiple orogenic episodes. Understanding long-lived crustal boundaries is important to understanding how orogenic systems work globally.
