Scientific paper

The subjects considered are related to growth and differentiation of the continental crust, plate tectonics through geological time, marginal basins through geological time, the fate of sediments on the descending plate at convergent margins, and palaeoclimate, sedimentation and continental accretion. Attention is also given to palaeomagnetic evidence for Proterozoic continental development, crustal evolution by arc magmatism, tonalites in crustal evolution, Andean andesites and crustal growth, space and time in granite plutonism, heat flow and differences in lithospheric thickness, the thermal and geochemical consequences of accretion of continental crust, continents as a chemical boundary layer, the role of the atmosphere and the hydrosphere in crustal evolution, the composition and evolution of the continental crust, the first 800 million years of earth's history, geochemical constraints on the evolution of the early continental crust, isotope and trace element models of crustal evolution, and the case for crustal recycling on a near-steady-state no-continental-growth earth.
