Appalachian orogenic belt
Appalachian orogenic belt A 3200 km long,
Palaeozoic,
orogenic belt extending from Newfoundland to Alabama and interpreted as the consequence of the closure of the Iapetus Ocean. Extensions of the belt along
strike include the Caledonian orogenic belt (see
CALEDONIAN OROGENY) in north-western Europe, now separated by the Atlantic Ocean. The deformation in the Appalachian belt ranges from late
Precambrian to
Permian, divided into four major
orogenies (
Avalonian,
Taconic,
Acadian, and
Alleghanian), with the transport of
thrust-
nappes predominantly north-westwards.
Seismic reflection profiling by
COCORP has supported, at least for the southern Appalachians, recent interpretations of a thin-skinned tectonic style in which a few kilometres' thickness of highly deformed material has been thrust westward for at least 200 km.
