The Mesozoic history of the Alpine Middle East can be divided              on the basis of the recognition of two distinct oceanic tracts                  that have evolved somewhat interdependently.  The older                         Paleotethyan tract originally separated Laurasia from the Gondwana              supercontinent but was closed when a microcontinent separated from              Gondwana and moved towards Laurasia, causing the opening of the                 Neotethyan tract.  Recent work in Turkey has shown the presence of              remnants of well-preserved segments of both the Paleo- and Neo-                 Tethyan ocean basins.  This project will study a suite of                       ophiolites in Turkey believed to represent ocean floor of these                 two ocean basins, and will address aspects of their origin and                  emplacement histories.  Results bear directly ont he quite complex              but overall convergent tectonics of the Mediterranean - Middle                  East region.
