Comment on Beronaguirre, Puelles, Ábalos, Gil Ibarguchi, García de Madinabeitia: short-duration regional metamorphic event recorded in a Variscan subduction channel (Malpica–Tui eclogites, NW Iberia). International Journal of Earth Sciences (2019) 108:2037–2046

Beranoaguirre et al. (Int J Earth Sci 108:2037–2046, 2019) have added a valuable piece of information to the Carboniferous tectono-thermal record of Europe by documenting a short-term pulse of heating in high-pressure metamorphic rocks of the NW-Iberian allochthons (c. 350 Ma, Malpica–Tui unit). They correctly state that the short duration of the thermal event is untypical of orogenic subduction/collision processes, but still envisage short-time...
