Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Orogen types. Orogen classification into accretionary, collisional and intracontinental based on nature of lithosphere (thick and buoyant or thin and dense). Collisional orogen is stabilized through collision between blocks of thick buoyant lithosphere. In an accretionary orogen, orogenesis is the result of coupling between thin dense lithosphere being recycled into the mantle and thick buoyant lithosphere. In an intracontinental orogen, orogenesis occurs within thick buoyant lithosphere in response to compression driven by far-field stresses. |
