Considerable research interest has recently been focused on fold-and-           thrust belts, not only on the geometry and kinematics but also on their         thermal evolution.  This project will utilized a well-studied fold-and-         thrust belt in the Hudson Valley of New York to attempt to distinquish          burial heating effects from conductive heating from overriding thrust           sheets.  Regional down-section trends of illite crystallinity and               vitrinite reflectance will be documented in order to establish relative         temperature trends form the Catskill Mountains into the Hudson Valley-          Little Moutains thrust belt.  These temperature estimates from thermal          maturation indexes, together with palinspastic restoration of thrust            geometries, will be used in constructing thermal models illustrating the        thermal and structural evolution of the region.  Results are expected to        demonstrate whether or not significant heating occurred by over thrusting,      and these findings will have wide importance.
