Quantitative characterization of orogens through isotopic mapping

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    Those from_(i) to (iii) quantitatively characterize and/or correspond to simple and complex accretionary orogens, and from_(iv) to (v) to complex and simple collisional orogens, respectively. So, it is difficult to quantitatively characterize, define, and/or classify the various types of orogens, although some previous studies have sought to compare accretionary orogens based on terrane longevity, accretion rates, and juvenile crust production4,5,6,12. The Variscides is generally considered to be a collisional orogen25, but is still considered as accretionary prior to collision (e_g pp149). Orogens with juvenile crust between 70 . . .
