Tectonic evolution of the Coyote Mountains Metamorphic Core Complex (AZ) part of 2018 Structure and Tectonics Forum:Abstracts
This abstract page from the 2018 Structure and Tectonics Forum presents geological research on the tectonic evolution of the Coyote Mountains Metamorphic Core Complex in Arizona, focusing on shear zone deformation, exhumation timing (~29 Ma), and thermomechanical conditions (450–550°C) inferred from microstructures and EBSD analysis of Pan Tak mylonites.

Thermomechanics of a detachment shear zone, Picacho Peak, AZ part of Structural Geology and Tectonics:2016 Structure and Tectonics Forum:Abstracts
This abstract page presents geological research on the thermomechanical evolution of the Picacho Peak detachment shear zone in Arizona, detailing microstructural analysis, EBSD data, and strain measurements to interpret deformation conditions and mechanical behavior during Miocene tectonic exhumation.
