CALL FOR PAPERS

Peninsular Ranges Batholith

Deadline for manuscript submission: June 2010

A GSA volume on the Peninsular Ranges batholith, Baja and southern California, is currently in the early stages of preparation. The volume will address both the Jurassic and Cretaceous batholiths and related extrusives. Plans are for a series of overview papers; a number of trans-batholith transects; topical papers dealing with isotopic, chemical, structural, and geophysical aspects of the batholith; as well as structural effects recorded in prebatholithic rocks during the evolution of the batholith. Also to be included are studies of individual plutons, ranging from gabbro to pegmatites, that characterize various elements of the batholith. A section is planned for geologic problems, such as Tertiary fault history, that have been solved through the analysis of batholithic data.
