Active continental subduction and crustal exhumation: the Taiwan orogeny
It is generally accepted that continental subduction and crustal exhumation play an important role in the evolution of many orogenic belts. A variety of geological evidence suggests that continental crust is occasionally subducted to depths of tens to perhaps 150 km (e.g. Chopin, 1984; Dewey et al., 1993; Matte et al., 1997). Recently, a series of simulations (Chemenda, 1993; Chemenda et al., 1...
متن کاملheterogeneity within the orientalist discourse: representation of the orient in womens travelogues and mens paintings
from 1950s onward, new theories and critical approaches burgeoned across humanities. these theories were context-oriented; as a result, the analysis of discursive practices gained significance. thus, social, political, historical and cultural discourses that have been hitherto marginalized and considered inferior to literary texts, were introduced as important texts to be analyzed by critics. o...

متن کاملRifting and subsidence following lithospheric removal in continental back arcs
It has been suggested that post-orogenic lithospheric removal in continental back arcs promotes extension and surface subsidence. However, the surface response of this process and its primary difference from “classical” back-arc opening have remained uncertain. Here, the back-arc extension process with varying continental mantle lithosphere thickness and thermal heterogeneities is studied by us...
متن کاملFar-field lithospheric deformation in Tibet during continental collision
[1] Crustal deformation along the present-day northern margin of the Tibetan Plateau has occurred since mid to late Eocene time, soon after India collided with Eurasia. Assuming that on these distance and time scales the lithosphere can be approximated using a thin viscous sheet, we show that far-field lithospheric deformation caused by an indenting boundary is expected to start shortly after c...
