It has become apparent that microplates have been accreted                 to the western continental margin of the United States at various               times during the Mesozoic and Tertiary.  Recently, it has been                  proposed that the Peninsular Ranges terrane of southern                         California did not accrete until sometime after 45 mybp,                        although the adjacent Santa Lucia/Orocopia terrane was in place                 by 55 mybp.  This model requires a very different shape for the                 continent during the time of metamorphic core complex and                       detachment faulting.  This project will collect paleomagnetic                   data from these terranes and stable North America to evaluate and               test the model for accretion.  Results are important to a number                of Tertiary tectonic features of southern California.
