摘要:
Volcanism concurrent with the development of the river system provides a unique opportunity to apply multiple geochronometers to the study of its incision and drainage evolution. This paper reports seventeen new and 79 previously unpublished 40Ar/39Ar basalt ages in the context of a compilation of published geochronology. We also report detrital zircon ages for nineteen samples of ancestral Rio Grande-Rio Chama sediment, and compare them to eleven detrital K-feldspar samples to evaluate this potentially powerful new detrital grain analysis.
