# Paleomagnetic-Geodynamic Mapping of the Transition Zone from Ocean to the Continent: A Review
## 3 Paleomagnetic Mapping and Profiling in Northern Israel
### Paleomagnetic Profile Kinnarot Valley--Hula Basin  
Without bringing it to Hermon, we slightly turned the profile line to show the structural contrast of the Antilebanon terrane with the Neoproterozoic base of Gondwana, which composes the lower structural levels of the northern part of the Golan Plateau. Here the Gissar, Jalal, and Sogdiana paleomagnetic superzones are sharply reduced in thickness compared to their analogs in the Antilebanon terrane. Within the blocks of the Gondwana oneself, there are almost no chalk traps developed. The complexity of the structure of the Kinneret and Hula depressions becomes evident in the constructed paleomagnetic profile \(\mathbf{I}\)-\(\mathbf{I}^{\prime}\)-\(\mathbf{I}^{\prime\prime}\) (Figure 7).

The bold green line designates the location of paleomagnetic profile \(\mathbf{I}^{\prime}\)-\(\mathbf{I}^{\prime\prime}\).

The primary utilized sources (besides publications presented in captions for Figures 5 and 6) are: [33,100].  
It stretches from the north to the south for more than 60 km. The southwestern and northeastern extremities of the profile are located about 20 km in latitude (Figures 5 and 6).  
The deep structure is elicited from the regional tectonic constructions [15; 32], results of seismic profiling [104; 108; 109], boreholes data [89; 110], regional geological map [76], radiometric data [73; 75; 97; 105; 107]; and the results of the paleomagnetic zonation [16; 18; 19; 22].  
Structurally, the paleomagnetic profile corresponds to three uplifts: Belvoir, Korazim, and Golan, between which there are two depressions--Kinnert-Kinnarot and Hula. The first two uplifts and depressions are formed within the southern block of the Antilebanon terrane (Figure 1), shifted relative to the northern one uplifted block of the higher Hermon plateau along the Dead Sea Transform (DST) for about 100 km.  
The Kinnert-Kinnarot and Hula are the pull-apart basins with the different amplitudes of subsidence of the Late Cenozoic sedimentary formations. Both the basins contain the traps related to the Sogdiana paleomagnetic superzone.  
Without bringing it to Hermon, we slightly turned the profile line to show the structural contrast of the Antilebanon terrane with the Neoproterozoic base of Gondwana, which composes the lower structural levels of the northern part of the Golan Plateau. Within the blocks of the Gondwana oneself, there are almost no chalk traps developed. They are concentrated mainly in the MTB area [100; 111].
