A Thermal Profile across the Idaho-Montana Fold-Thrust Belt Reveals a Low-Relief Orogenic Wedge That Developed atop a Pre-Orogenic Basement High
AbstractGrowing orogenic wedges cool rocks during exhumation of thrust hanging walls and heat them during burial of footwalls, leaving behind a resilient thermal record of earlier deformation in fold-thrust belts. In order to investigate early burial of deformed strata within the ret...
