The onset of the assembly of Pangaea in NW Iberia: Constraints on the kinematics of continental subduction

Excellent exposures of high-pressure rocks developed in a Variscan continental subduction system outcrop in NW Iberia. The kinematic criteria provided by the high-pressure metamorphic fabrics can be used to infer tectonic flow within the deep sections of this system. The dominant trend of the ductil...
