Orogenic Belt Reconstruction

Orogenic Belt Reconstruction is a tectonic reconstruction method that specifically restores the structural and spatial evolution of mountain belts formed by continental collision, subduction, or crustal shortening, distinguishing itself from broader plate-scale reconstructions by focusing on the geometry, kinematics, and timing of orogen-parallel and orogen-perpendicular deformation processes.
