Seismic evidence for a mantle suture and implications for the origin of the Canadian Cordillera
Two challenging theories, accretion versus collision, approach the orogenesis of the North American Cordillera. Here, the authors present new, high-resolution geophysical datasets consistent with a model of collision in response to westward subduction of the North American craton.
