- Terrane - Wikipedia
In geology, a terrane ( təˈreɪn, ˈtɛreɪn ; [1][2] in full, a tectonostratigraphic terrane) is a crust fragment formed on a tectonic plate (or broken off from it) and accreted or "sutured" to crust lying on another plate

The Wrangellia, Alexander and Peninsular terranes slammed into North America from 110 to 85 million years ago, followed by the Chugach Terrane about 67 million years ago, and then the Prince William Terrane by 50 million years ago

The Monian Terrane is bounded to the south-east by the Menai Strait Fault System and comprises the Mona Complex of Anglesey and the Llŷn Peninsula in north-western Wales and the Rosslare Complex of south-eastern Ireland
- Terrane accretion explains thin and hot ocean-continent back-arcs
Here, we show, using thermomechanical model experiments, that terrane accretion provides a consistent explanation for the observed key characteristics and naturally leads to rheologically weak back-arcs with continental crust directly on top of the hot sublithospheric mantle

Other articles where terrane is discussed: Cambrian Period: Paleogeography: Several terranes (fault-bounded fragments of the Earth’s crust) seem to have been located near or attached to the margin of the northern Africa sector of Gondwana in the high southern latitudes, but many details of their Cambrian geographic relations are unknown
- Simple Explanation of Terranes in Geology
Results suggest that as much as 30 percent of North America was formed by terrane accretion over the last 300 million years, and that terrane accretion has been an important process in the growth of continents

A terrane is a crustal block or fragment that preserves a distinctive geologic history that is different from the surrounding areas and that is usually bounded by faults
