Abstract: | The weight of the geological evidence, which includes the recognition of a late Cretaceous paired metamorphic belt, suggests that a southward dipping subduction zone existed in the Eastern Alps. On this basis a new plate tectonic model is presented for the post-Palaeozoic evolution of that orogen. |
