| Scope |
Recent geological investigations performed by many researchers,
especially in Asian countries, revealed that continental growth in
Asia could be accounted for by collage tectonics. In this session,
we would like to discuss the formation and tectonic model of Asia
continent due to assembly of newly obtained geological, petrological,
geochronological and geophysical data. |
