This special issue of the Journal of Geosciences presents contributions to the tectonometamorphic development of geological units along the northeastern periphery of the Moldanubian Zone in the high-grade metamorphic core of the Variscan Bohemian Massif. Specifically these are the Strázek Unit of the Moldanubian Zone, as well as the largely independent Svratka, Kutná Hora, Policka and Orlice-Snëznik units. The main focus of the research papers is on analysis of the metamorphic record, geochemical characteristics and structural position of felsic gneisses and granulites, skarns, eclogites, tourmalinites, and other lithologies. At a general level, the results of our research serve for ...
