Paleozoic orogens in New England, USA

Peter Robinson, Robert D. Tucker, Dwight C. Bradley et al. · 1 Jun 1998

Abstract Stratigraphy and isotope geochronology in the crystalline core of the Appalachians suggest revised interpretations of the extent, nature and timing of Paleozoic orogens in New England. Five major episodes of magmatism, deformation, and high-grade regional metamorphism are recognized: Taconian (455-442 Ma), Acadian (423-385 Ma), Neo-Acadian (366-350 Ma), Late Pennsylvanian (300-290 Ma) and Alleghanian (280-260…

Relationship of Silurian sea-level fluctuations to oceanic episodes and events

Markes E. Johnson · 1 Jun 2006

Abstract Eight distinct highstands in sea level emerged from the author's study of the Silurian System on a continent-to-continent basis during the 1980s and 1990s. Some emendations are needed to accommodate other trends recognized since that time, but the overall pattern is strong. Five major highstands and one minor highstand fit the Lower Silurian (Llandovery…

Growth-related 1.85–1.55 Ga magmatism in the Baltic Shield; a review addressing the tectonic characteristics of Svecofennian, TIB 1-related, and Gothian events

Karl‐Inge Åhäll, Sven Åke Larson · 1 Jun 2000

Abstract During the late Palaeoproterozoic, western Baltica was characterised by convergent-margin tectonics that resulted in the formation of N–S trending crustal units: the Transscandinavian Igneous Belt (TIB) and the westward younging Gothian growth zones. Together, these occupy a 200–300 km wide belt between Svecofennian (c. 1.9 Ga) crust in the east and the Skagerrak Sea/Oslo…

Palaeozoic palaeogeography: A North Atlantic viewpoint

Trond H. Torsvik · 1 Jun 1998

Abstract Palaeozoic palaeogeography, highlighting the North Atlantic Caledonian evolution and the destruction of the Iapetus Ocean and the Tornquist Sea, is recapitulated with reconstruction maps from Early Ordovician to Mid-Devonian times. In the Early Ordovician (Trem-adoc-Arenig), Laurentia, Siberia, and the North China Block were positioned in equatorial latitudes, Baltica was located at intermediate southerly latitudes,…

Nomenclature, stratigraphy, chemical fingerprinting, and areal distribution of some Middle Ordovician K‐bentonites in Baltoscandia

Stig M. Bergström, Warren D. Huff, Dennis R. Kolata et al. · 1 Mar 1995

Abstract Based on biostratigraphic position, chemical fingerprinting, and lithic characteristics such as relative thickness, several of the numerous K‐bentonite beds, or complexes of beds, in the Middle Ordovician of Baltoscandia are shown to be traceable over large areas. Because the type of volcanic eruptions that produced such widespread ash beds lasts only a short time…

GFF template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the GFF format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the GFF template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Taylor & Francis format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does GFF use?
GFF uses Author–year (Chicago, T&F) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, Ada, Ben Jones, and Cara Lee. 2023. "A Representative Article Title." GFF 12 (3): 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to GFF?
No. DocuGuru generates the interact LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Taylor & Francis-ready GFF document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the GFF template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the GFF format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes GFF?
GFF is a multidisciplinary journal published by Taylor & Francis. DocuGuru's GFF template matches Taylor & Francis's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready GFF PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official GFF template (the interact class) that is ready to submit to Taylor & Francis, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the GFF template cost?
You can start writing in the GFF template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready GFF PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
