On the right : Wilson cycle updated representing the 4 maturity stages of divergence (A, B, C and D) and the 4 maturity stages of convergence (1, 2, 3 and 4). Both the divergent and convergent cycle are predated and follow by pre and post deformation phases (i.e. stable continent and inactive ocean basin). In the case of the end of convergence, different post-convergent scenarios are possible depending of the maturity stage of the convergence. Those scenarios are illustrated on the left side of the figure.
