Thermal histories of the continental lithosphere using multi-diffusion domain thermochronometry.

摘要

he Salton Sea Geothermal Field (SSGF), located in southern California, and New York State are two ideal terranes in which to apply K-feldspar ;Multi-diffusion domain (MDD) analyses of K-feldspars from the New York basement suggest three distinct thermal events have effected this region. A thermal pulse of ;Although present day temperatures exceed 275;An additional study exemplifies the use of isotope correlation diagrams to obtain geologically meaningful age information from complex, in some cases seemingly meaningless,
