Strain localization and exhumation of the lower crust: A study of the three-dimensional structure and flow kinematics of central Fiordland, New Zealand

In this thesis, I present structural and kinematic data on rock fabrics, shear zones and fault zones from the Cretaceous Malaspina orthogneiss and some of its satellite plutons in central Fiordland, New Zealand. Central Fiordland exposes a large tract of granulite- to eclogite-facies lower crust tha...
