Vorticity of Flow, Deformation Temperatures, and Strain Symmetry of the Moine Thrust Zone, NW Scotland: Constraining the Kinematic and Thermal Evolution of a Collisional Orogenic System
Examination of deformation temperature, flow vorticity, and strain symmetry in the Loch Eriboll, Loch More, and Assynt regions of the Moine thrust zone (MTZ) in northwest Scotland allows quantitative kinematic and thermal characterization of a crustal-scale shear zone at the base of the Scandian (43...
