The role of megacontinents in the supercontinent cycle

Chong Wang et al.

Summary: Geologists have found that the formation of past three supercontinents were preceded by a megacontinent similar to Gondwana, and this assembly of a megacontinent is considered a crucial precursor to supercontinent amalgamation. The recent assembly of Eurasia is seen as the fourth megacontinent associated with the future supercontinent Amasia.

Provenance and Paleozoic tectonic evolution of Ganderia and its relationships with Avalonia and Megumia in the Appalachian- Caledonide orogen

Cees R. van Staal et al.

Summary: The study focuses on the tectonic evolution and terrane accretion process of West and East Ganderia in the northern Appalachians and Caledonides during the Ordovician to Silurian periods. The closure of backarc basins, arc magmatism, and subsequent accretion events are discussed in the context of the Gondwanan superterrane and its interactions with surrounding tectonic blocks.

A tectonic model for the Transcontinental Arch: Progressive migration of a Laurentian drainage divide during the Neoproterozoic-Cambrian Sauk Transgression

Daniel T. Brennan et al.

Summary: The shift in provenance recorded by passive margin strata of western Laurentia, from Stenian detrital zircon age components to their absence, likely reflects progressive subsidence of passive margins surrounding Laurentia and concomitant relative uplift of the Transcontinental Arch due to lithospheric flexure.

Gondwana's interlinked peripheral orogens

Peter A. Cawood et al.

Summary: After its assembly in the Ediacaran-Early Cambrian, Gondwana was surrounded by a system of peripheral orogens, including Terra Australis, Avalonian-Cadomian, and North Indo-Australie, which showed temporal correlations in their lithotectonic records. The development of these orogens was influenced by the breakup of Rodinia in the early Neoproterozoic, with variations reflecting the different relationships of their basement continental blocks to the supercontinent. The different orogens recorded the development of passive continental margins or convergent plate margins prior to Gondwana's assembly.
