9316105 Saleeby The emplacement of large batholiths in compressional setting raises classic arguments about how space requirements are met, and the degree to which batholiths create their air space. This proposal will investigate the suggestion that a set of ductile shear zones from the southern Sierra Nevada batholith may represent deformation related to pluton emplacement dynamics which are linked kinematically to the Tehachapi-Rand thrust system. A test of this hypothesis involves establishing a firm physical and temporal link between the shear zones and the thrust system. Results will help resolve the local debate, and as the Sierra Nevada is commonly regarded as the type exposure of a batholithic belt, they will have importance generally.

9316105 Saleeby在压缩环境中的大型沐浴露式的地位提出了有关满足空间需求的经典论点，以及沐浴露创造空间空间的程度。 该提议将调查以下建议：内华达州南部山利岩南部的一组延性剪切区可能代表与plut子埋入动力学相关的变形，这些变形与Tehachapi-rand推力系统相关联。 对该假设的检验涉及建立剪切区与推力系统之间的牢固的物理和时间联系。 结果将有助于解决当地的辩论，并且由于内华达山脉通常被视为沐浴石带的类型暴露，因此它们一般都具有重要意义。
