The lithosphere of Southern Peru: A result of the accretion of allochthonous blocks during the Mesoproterozoic
(IRD ÉditionsFRA, 2008)
Southern Peru exhibits different juxtaposed structural blocks. These blocks have a distinct sedimentary, tectonic and magmatic evolution. They are bounded by complex, mainly NW-SE fault systems, locally marked by Cenozoic ...
Heat flow and lithospheric thickness analysis in the Patagonian asthenospheric windows, southern South America
(Elsevier Science, 2018-11)
The lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary (LAB) is a first-order discontinuity, essential to understand the Earth composition and evolution. However, its detection has been critical and several regions still lack of coverage. ...
Upper-mantle seismic anisotropy from SKS splitting in the South American stable platform: A test of asthenospheric flow models beneath the lithosphere
(GEOLOGICAL SOC AMER, INC, 2011)
Upper-mantle seismic anisotropy has been extensively used to infer both present and past deformation processes at lithospheric and asthenospheric depths. Analysis of shear-wave splitting (mainly from core-refracted SKS ...

Flexural modeling of the elastic lithosphere at an ocean trench: a parameter sensitivity analysis using analytical solutions
(Elsevier, 2018)
The outer rise is a topographic bulge seaward of the trench at a subduction zone that is caused by bending and
flexure of the oceanic lithosphere as subduction commences. The classic model of the flexure of oceanic ...
Electrical structure of the lithosphere from Rio de la Plata craton to Paraná basin: amalgamation of cratonic and refertilized lithospheres in SW Gondwanaland
(American Geophysical Union, 2019)
We conducted a magnetotelluric (MT) study from Paleoproterozoic Rio de la Plata Craton, in Uruguay, toward Paleozoic-Mesozoic Paraná Basin, in Brazil. The 850-km-long MT transect comprises 35 evenly spaced broadband ...
Reappraisal of the effective elastic thickness for the sub-Andes using 3-D finite element flexural modelling, gravity and geological constraints
(WILEY-BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, INC, 2009)
P>Estimates of effective elastic thickness (T(e)) for the western portion of the South American Plate using, independently, forward flexural modelling and coherence analysis, suggest different thermomechanical properties ...
Outer rise stress changes related to the subduction of the Juan Fernandez Ridge, central Chile
(2007)
Although outer rise seismicity is less common than interplate seismicity in subduction zones, a significant level of seismicity has occurred between the Nazca trench and Juan Fernandez Ridge, in central Chile, during the ...
