OverviewThe NE Pacific Ocean is considered the birthplace of many fundamental ideas for modern plate tectonics theory. In this work, the orogenic belts of this region are discussed in a single, internally consistent tectonic concept. Geological information is considered the most reliable. Geophysical models are tested for compatibility with observable geological data. The new concept avoids force-fitting interpretations to preconceived assumptions regarding accreted far-travelled terrains in the Cordillera and continental-oceanic plate interactions in the entire region.
