Gondwana and Tethys

Introduction. Gravity glide and plate tectonics lithospheric stress, deformation and tectonic cycles - the disruption of Pangaea and the closure of Tethys basement and cover rock history in western Tethys - HT/LP metamorphism associated with extensional rifting of Gondwana holocene serial folding in the Zagros Gondwana and the evolution of the Indian Ocean evolution of the southern margin of Tethys (north Australian region) from early Permian to late Cretaceous origin and assembly of south-east Asia continental terranes origin and assembly of the Tethyside orogenic collage at the expense of Gondwanaland lower Palaeozoic facies and faunas around Gondwana fossil plants as indicators of late Palaeozoic plate positions the nature, extent and subsequent dispersal of the Permian Tethys unexpected microfaunal communities within the Triassic Tethys structure and palaeogeography of the western Tethys during the Jurassic - tests based on ammonite palaeobiogeography middle Jurassic ammonite biogeography supports ambi-Tethyan origin of Tibet Mesozoic Turkey as part of Europe the trans-Pacific spread of equatorial shallow-marine benthos in the Cretaceous Gondwana, Tethys and terrestrial vertebrates during Mesozoic and Cainozoic tectonics from fossils? - analysis of reef-coral and sea-urchin distributions from late Cretaceous to recent, using a new method phytogeography of the eastern end of Tethys.
