This study aims at a comprehensive understanding of the evolution of continent-continent collision, with the Tibet-Himalaya orogen representing a mature collision zone and the Caucasus-Zagros representing an intermediate-stage orogen. The results will be furthermore combined with constraints from some nascent collision zones, such as Taiwan, to comprehend the whole spectrum of geologic processes through which collisional orogeny evolves. Based on our successful experiences from the Tibet-Himalaya orogenic belt performed under the integrated CREATE project, this newly proposed project represents a westward extension of the CREATE project and will particularly focus on: (1) the most unusual occurrence of widespread Quaternary igneous activities from the Turkish Anatolia to the Caucasus (southern Georgia and Armenia) and eastern Iran, a zone of active contraction owing to the Arabia-Eurasia collision, in the hope to decipher the link between active tectonism and magmatism; and (2) the petrogenesis of Eocene(?) subduction-related volcanism/plutonism, to constrain the pre-collisional Eurasian lithospheric structure. It is also emphasized that the key target involving several fundamental problems in continental dynamics remains under-explored and that the proposed project presents a rare opportunity for the geosciences community in Taiwan to reach into an important area where keen international competition is yet to fully develop.
