Quantifying Crustal Thickness in Continental Collisional Belts: Global Perspective and a Geologic Application

Abstract We present compiled geochemical data of young (mostly Pliocene-present) intermediate magmatic rocks from continental collisional belts and correlations between their whole-rock Sr/Y and La/Yb ratios and modern crustal thickness. These correlations, which are similar to those obtained from s...
