The Ellsworth-Whitmore Mountains crustal block: Its role in the tectonic evolution of West Antarctica
1 January, 1987
The 1983–1984 season of the joint British Antarctic Survey‐U.S. Antarctic Research Program geology and geophysics project on the Ellsworth‐Whitmore Mountains crustal block (EWM) has yielded new observations and laboratory data…Extensional tectonics and the fragmentation of Gondwanaland
1 January, 1987
The magmatic arc of the Antarctic Peninsula displays a wide range of features related to extensional tectonics at a convergent margin. Cenozoic extensional features are concentrated in a linear belt…Read more on Extensional tectonics and the fragmentation of Gondwanaland
Joint U.K.-U.S. West Antarctic Tectonic Project: an introduction
1 January, 1987
The relationship of West Antarctica to the Precambrian craton of East Antarctica is the longest standing major tectonic problem in Antarctic geology. It has a bearing on Gondwanaland reconstruction but…Read more on Joint U.K.-U.S. West Antarctic Tectonic Project: an introduction
Late Paleozoic Accretionary Complexes on the Gondwana Margin of Southern Chile: Evidence from The Chonos Archipelago
1 January, 1987
The late Paleozoic “basement” rocks that crop out along the Pacific side of the Chonos Archipelago (44°–46°S) can be divided into two north‐south trending belts: (1) an eastern belt formed…Lithospheric extension on the Antarctic Peninsula during Cenozoic subduction
1 January, 1987
The magmatic arc of the Antarctic Peninsula displays a wide range of features related to extensional tectonics at a convergent margin. Cenozoic extensional features are concentrated in a linear belt…Read more on Lithospheric extension on the Antarctic Peninsula during Cenozoic subduction
Structural evolution of the magmatic arc in northern Palmer Land, Antarctic Peninsula
1 January, 1987
In northern Palmer Land, Antarctic Peninsula, the magmatic arc has developed by the interaction of compressional and extensional tectonics. Periods of magmatism and arc compression in the Early Jurassic and…Read more on Structural evolution of the magmatic arc in northern Palmer Land, Antarctic Peninsula
Rb-Sr Geochronology of the Region Between The Antarctic Peninsula and The Transantarctic Mountains: Haag Nunataks and Mesozoic Granitoids
1 January, 1987
Seventy‐two new Rb‐Sr whole‐rock analyses are reported for Haag Nunataks, Mount Woollard, the Whitmore Mountains, the Pirrit and Nash hills, and Pagano Nunatak. For Haag Nunataks, three isochrons for gneisses…Sandstone detrital modes and basinal setting of the Trinity Peninsula Group, northern Graham Land, Antarctic Peninsula: a preliminary survey
1 January, 1987
Sandstone detrital modes for a representative sample of the Trinity Peninsula Group in northern Graham Land are described and assessed. Whereas the volumetrically dominant quartz and feldspar were derived principally…
