Magmatic tempo of Earth's youngest exposed plutons as revealed by detrital zircon U-Pb geochronology.

Plutons are formed by protracted crystallization of magma bodies several kilometers deep within the crust. The temporal frequency (i.e. episodicity or 'tempo') of pluton formation is often poorly constrained as timescales of pluton formation are largely variable and may be difficult to res...
