Formation of the Sierra Nevada Batholith : magmatic and tectonic processes and their tempos / edited by Vali Memeti, Scott R. Paterson, Keith D. Putirka.
"This comprehensive field guide takes you on a six-day, west-to-east geologic journey across the Mesozoic magmatic arc of the central Sierra Nevada in California. It summarizes field, structural, geochemistry, and geochronology data collected on individual intrusions, basement terranes intruded by t...
