TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report International Ocean Discovery Program drilling data from the northern South China Sea margin, testing the magma-poor margin model outside the North Atlantic, showing initiation of mid-Ocean Ridge basalt type magmatism during breakup, with a narrow and rapid transition into igneous oceanic crust.

Orogen transplant: Taconic–Caledonian arc magmatism in the central Brooks Range of Alaska
Justin V. Strauss,Carl W. Hoiland,William P. Ward,Benjamin G. Johnson,Lyle L. Nelson,William C. McClelland +5 more
TL;DR: The Doonerak fenster of the central Brooks Range, Alaska exposes a unique package of Cambrian−Devonian(?) volcanic and sedimentary basement rocks (Apoon assemblage) within the Mesozoic−Cenozoic Brookian fold-and-thrust belt as mentioned in this paper.

Detrital geochronology of pre-Mississippian strata in the northeastern Brooks Range, Alaska: Insights into the tectonic evolution of northern Laurentia
Benjamin G. Johnson,Justin V. Strauss,Jaime Toro,Jeffrey A. Benowitz,William P. Ward,Jeremy K. Hourigan +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the consequences of Caledonian orogenesis on sediment dispersal trends and the paleogeography of northern Laurentia were investigated using U-Pb and 40 Ar/39 Ar isotopic data from detrital minerals in pre-mississippian sedimentary units of the northeastern Brooks Range.

TL;DR: The International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 367/368 to the northern South China Sea (SCS) margin were to examine its history of continental breakup and compare it with other nonvolcanic or magma-poor rifted margins with the broader goal of testing models for continental breakup as discussed by the authors.
