Geology and Geophysics of an Arc-Continent Collision, Taiwan 1-1-001-323-4330-323 Full Title: The Pennsylvanian-Early PermianEditors: Timothy B. Byrne and Char Shine Liu The Taiwan orogenic belt, which straddles the plate boundary between the Eurasia and Philippine Sea plates, represents one of Earths only active arc continent collisions; as such, it provides a unique natural laboratory for understanding orogenic processes. The 14 papers that constitute this volume are organized around five research themes, followed by a synthetic interpretation of the subduction collision
