| Summary | This volume contains recent data and models pertaining to the Jurassic-Paleogene tectonic evolution of the North American Cordillera. It provides open discussion of a range of tectonic models, such as oblique convergence and terrane translation, flat-slab subduction, native versus allochthonous arcs, and the new data that support and/or refute them. The chapters reflect the diversity of scientists addressing the complex tectonic history of the North American Cordillera using a variety of methods (e.g., tomography to field geology) that are applied to either the entire system or specific locations from Alaska to Mexico. |
