Several late-collision and intraplate features are not entirely integrated in the classical plate tectonic model. The Pan-African orogeny (730–550 Ma) Saharan Africa provides some insight into contrasting behaviour of cratons mobile belts. Simple geophysical considerations geological observations indicate that rigidity persistence linked to presence a thick mechanical boundary layer, upper brittle part continental lithospheric mantle, well attached an ancient weakly radioactive crust....

This article reviews the growth of field refugee studies, focusing on its links with, and impact on, policy. The last fifty years, especially two decades, have witnessed both a dramatic increase in academic work refugees significant institutional development field. It is argued that these institutions developed strong with policymakers, although this has often failed to translate into policy impacts. Areas which future policy-orientated might be are considered.
The study of transnationalism has largely bypassed refugees, or in rare cases focused specifically on their political activities. Proceeding from recent perspectives international migration studies which suggest that there may be at best only a blurred conceptual distinction between refugees and other migrants, this article subjects two refugee groups - Eritreans Bosnians various European countries to the type transnational analysis more commonly found among labour migrants. It extends focus...
This paper sets out a new approach to understanding the relationship between migration and climate change. Based on that is significant, growing, but also complex phenomenon, this seeks address sensitivity of existing drivers in specific contexts In contrast approaches which have sought generate global-level estimates numbers ‘climate migrants’, integrated assessment instead understand how why flows from locations may change future, provide practical tool for adaptation planning. Examples...
Summary The Pan-African Trans-Saharan belt in the Iforas displays a rapid switch from subduction and collision-related calc-alkaline to typical A-type magmatism, which is accompanied by transcurrent movements along major shear zones inducing weak distension. Detailed Rb-Sr geochronology geochemical data point different mantle sources for orogenic (lithospheric depleted + oceanic crust) within-plate magmatism (more primitive asthenospheric mantle). Both groups suffer lower-crustal...
Environmental change poses risks to societies, including disrupting social and economic systems such as migration. At the same time, migration is an effective adaptation environmental other risks.
