Late Cretaceous–Paleocene evolution of the East Gondwana margin, a new dynamic model for the formation of marginal basins
Late Cretaceous–Paleocene evolution of the east Gondwana margin Plate reconstructions in a mantle reference frame show that from 140 to 105 Ma Gondwana moved eastward toward the Pacifi c Plate. This convergence was largely accommodated by the subduction of the Pacifi c Plate under Gondwana. Between...
