Block 4: PTSE-t parameters of Orogeny
Stress state and P-T-t path during Orogeny
Presentation
Block 4 is dedicated to the parametrization of orogenic processes, including pressure, thermicity, chemistry and stress through the entire orogenic evolution.
The challenge of Block 4 is not only located in near field orogens regions but also aims to unravel the far field effects of orogeny.
The methods
Block 4 is deeply multi-methods and deals with:
- Field geology,
- In-situ / detrital low-temperature thermochronology performed both on outcrops and wells samples,
- Classical middle to high-temperature geochronology,
- Subsurface data analysis and interpretation,
- Palaeo-barometry,
- Numerical modelling
- …
