The Mesoproterozoic Sveconorwegian orogeny: orogen scale interpretation of metamorphic and magmatic patterns supports an ultra-hot collision model
The Sveconorwegian orogeny is a representative Grenvillian orogeny, involving multiphase reworking of the margin of Fennoscandia at the end of the Mesoproterozoic, between 1150 and 900 Ma. The asthenosphere was possibly c. 100C hotter than today, having a major impact on tectonic style in the lithos...

The Sveconorwegian orogeny is a representative Grenvillian orogeny, involving multiphase reworking of the margin of Fennoscandia at the end of the Mesoproterozoic, between 1150 and 900 Ma. The asthenosphere was possibly c. 100C hotter than today, having a major impact on tectonic style in the lithosphere. Two geodynamic models compete: a collision between Fennoscandia and another continent to contribute to Rodinia assembly, versus an accretionary (tectonic switch) model at the margin of Fennoscandia. Here we provide an analysis of the structural, metamorphic and magmatic record across the entire Sveconorwegian orogenic belt, through time, supporting the collision model.
