Subduction zone polarity in the Oman Mountains: Implications for ophiolite emplacement

Two end-member models have been proposed to account for the structure and metamorphism of rocks beneath the Semail ophiolite in the Oman mountains. Model A involves a single, continuous NE-directed subduction away from the continental margin during the late Cretaceous. The ophiolite and underlying t...
