Additional comparison with magmatic arcs and cordilleran-type batholiths emphasises the low rate of magma production for the Himalayan granites. We review and summarise data on the condition of segregation, ascent and emplacement of leucogranitic magmas in the High Himalaya. The plutons are small and mostly concordant with the country rocks. Thermal data indicate that they were emplaced within the ductile crust. Magma ascent and segregation has been strongly controlled by the extrusion of the High Himalaya Crystallines. Strain during extrusion provided the magma its internal high anisotropy, while aggregation of successive pulses of magma coming from chemically different sources caused chemical heterogeneity. The source region had a slow melting rate (< 13 %) at rather low temperature (below 780 °C).","PeriodicalId":201383,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Virtual Explorer","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115885545","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The excellent preservation of foreland basin deposits in conjunction with folds and thrusts has been the basis for the numerous papers on the syntectonic evolution of the Pyrenees. Many of these papers quantified the geological processes: inversion tectonics, fold-and-thrust development, foreland and hinterland sequences of thrusting, growth strata, and control of stratigraphy on tectonics as well as tectonics on sedimentation. Geophysical data also constrain the crustal and lithospheric structure. The pre-orogenic Mesozoic rift basins exerted a significant influence on the Pyrenean thrust system. Later, the opening of the València trough was also important for the late development of the Eastern Pyrenees. Both, the preand post-orogenic evolution deserve more attention. In this paper we present an integrated synthesis of the Pyrenees from the middle Cretaceous to the present showing the pre-, synand post-collisional evolution ranging from plate tectonics to single anticlines and thrusts. Special emphasis is given to the timing of deformation related to both compression during collision and the later extension related to the opening of the València trough. A lithospheric section across the Central Pyrenees and another along the strike of the Eastern Pyrenees show the present-day structure at depth. The present-day crustal structure of the Western Pyrenees almost reflects the final stage of the Pyrenean orogenic growth, since there have not been major post-collisional events in the region. The eastern Pyrenees, however, show a relatively rapid thinning of the crust and lithosphere towards the E due to the strong overprinting of Neogene and Quaternary extensional events. Most of the easternmost Pyrenean landscape is related to block uplift related to normal faulting.

Comprising one of the most complex and tectonically active geological settings and entailing one of the richest and most important archaeological records in Europe, Greece was among the first places where the discipline of geoarchaeology was originally applied. The peninsular and maritime character of the country, the extensive coastlines and the pronounced sea-level oscillations occurring in the Quaternary explains why geoarchaeological approaches were at first employed on famous archaeological sites situated along or near the coast. Geoarchaeology in Greece never lost its ‘coastal focus’, but it did enter a second phase during the 1980’s, when there is a shift of interest towards the study of humanenvironment interactions. This phase initiates a long-lasting debate over landscape instability and the anthropogenic versus climatic impact as major drivers of alluviation and soil erosion during the Holocene. The third stage in the history of the discipline is marked with a dual emphasis on both broad, landscape-scale perspectives and site-specific, micro-scale applications. Particularly during the last decade, geoarchaeological investigations in Greece have been characterized by pioneering studies of site formation processes, archaeological sediments and the micro-stratigraphic context.
