The tangled patterns of land and sea, and of deep-sea trenches, volcanic and zones of mantle earthquakes, in the Indonesian region have long fascinated structural geologists and geophyisicist. It was early recognized that processes that have gone to completion in mountain sytems such as the Alps are displayed in earlier stages of evolution in Indone…
Fifteen newly determined radiocarbon dates indicated the presence of former shorelines up to 3 meters above present high tide level in the tectonically stable Peninsula of Malaysia. The sea level indicators consist of oysters in growth position (9 sampels), moulluscs in beach deposits (2), corals in growth position (3), and beachrock (1). In the Pen…
Three first order elements combined to shape southeast Asia. the dextral Ninetyeast shear system the Tethyan shear system, and three elements stem from a single cauese - Expansion of The Rotating earth. Reveal of These three elements restores south-east Asia to its early Mesozoic configuration.
The relevant characteristic of the evolution of the Pacific continental margin of South America during the Mesozoic-Early Cenozoic has been tectonic segmentation. This has controlled succesive episodes of sedimentary accumula, Ition, extrusive and intrusive magmatism and deformation that ocurred at conververgent plate edges. …
