Geophysical framework of the Peninsular Ranges batholith—Implications for tectonic evolution and neotectonics

January 1, 2014

The crustal structure of the Peninsular Ranges batholith can be divided geophysically into two parts: (1) a western mafic part that is dense, magnetic, and characterized by relatively high seismic velocities (>6.25 km/s), low heat flow (
