A transverse, thin-skinned, thrust-fault belt in the Paleozoic North Greenland Fold Belt

摘要

The southern part of the North Greenland Fold Belt in Peary Land has been affected by two widely different orogenic events: an Early to Middle Devonian, westward-directed, thrust-fault deformation and a Late Devonian to an early Carboniferous folding on east-west axes that folded the earlier thrust faults.
