DOI: 10.1016/j.earscirev.2021.103772
Abstract: Abstract The Alps, as part of the Alpine-Mediterranean Mountain chain, are one of the classical localities for orogenic studies, where the Mesozoic-Cenozoic tectonic evolution is well known, and many classical models have been proposed to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.epsl.2019.115975
Abstract: Abstract The composition and origin of the earliest continental crust is intensely debated. The understanding of its composition relies heavily on the oldest vestiges of continental crust, which includes detrital zircon grains that are up… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2020tc006613
Abstract: The study based on structural mapping, monazite chemical age determinations and analyses of P–T pseudosections explores the hitherto undocumented accretion dynamics of the northern margin of the Chottanagpur Gneiss Complex (CGC), Eastern India. In the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s00015-020-00373-3
Abstract: Many metamorphosed basement complexes in the Alps are polymetamorphic and their origin and geological history may only be deciphered by detailed geochronology on the different members including oceanic elements like ophiolites, arc successions, and continental passive… read more here.
