Paleozoic Tectonic Transition from Arc–Continent Collision to Post-Orogenic Extension in the East Kunlun Orogen: Constraints from Metamorphic Events

Abstract The tectonic evolution of the trench–arc–back-–arc basin system—encompassing back-arc spreading, subduction, basin closure, and the subsequent transition from arc–continent collision to post-collisional extension—represents a fundamental process in the evolution of the P...
