Apparent thermal gradient in ºC/GPa plotted against age of peak metamorphism in Ma (data from Tables 1-5 of Brown, 2007) for the three main types of extreme metamorphic belt – Granulite-Ultra High Temperature (circles), Eclogite-High Pressure Granulite (diamonds), and High Pressure-Ultra High Pressure (squares).
