Structural, tectonic and glaciological controls on the evolution of fjord landscapes
(Elsevier Science, 2009-04)
The fjord landscape of South America, stretching ~ 1500 km between Golfo Corcovado (~ 43°S) and Tierra del Fuego (~ 56°S), is the largest continuous fjord landscape on Earth. This paper presents the results of new structural ...
Late Glacial and Holocene glacial history of Monte San Lorenzo, Central Patagonia, Chile.
(2011)
Many glaciated areas around the world underwent periods of renewed glacial activity during the Last
Glacial-Interglacial Transition (LGIT), and later, during the Holocene. Even though important efforts have
been made, ...
WESTERN PATAGONIA: A KEY AREA FOR UNDERSTANDING QUATERNARY PALEOCLIMATE AT SOUTHERN MID-LATITUDES
(PLENUM PUBLISHING CORPORATION, 2002)
Paleoclimate research in the Andean region south of 40° S is key to understanding the climatic evolution of the mid-latitudes of the Southern Hemisphere. Studies in this region are of pivotal importance for determining the ...
Glacier inventory and recent glacier variations in the Andes of Chile, South America
(Cambridge University Press, 2017)
The first satellite-derived inventory of glaciers and rock glaciers in Chile, created from
Landsat TM/ETM+ images spanning between 2000 and 2003 using a semi-automated procedure, is presented
in a single standardized ...
Streamflow variations across the Andes (18°–55°S) during the instrumental era
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-12)
The rivers originating in the southern Andes (18°–55°S) support numerous ecosystems and a large number of human populations and socio-economic activities in the adjacent lowlands of Chile, Argentina and Bolivia. Here we ...
Perito Moreno Glacier dam rupture - A recurrent natural experiment to probe solid-earth elasticity
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020-12)
The Southern Patagonian Icefield is located in an area with a complex tectonic-rheological structure and is affected by intense glacial-isostatic adjustment and rapid ice retreat. Geodetic observations of loading effects ...
Documentary and tree-ring evidence for a long-term interval without ice impoundments from Glaciar Perito Moreno, Patagonia, Argentina
(Sage Publications, 2014-10)
Glaciar Perito Moreno (hereafter GPM; 50°30′S and 72°50′W) is a major outlet glacier from the South Patagonia Icefield. In contrast to most Patagonian glaciers, glaciological studies indicate that GPM has been advancing ...
Principales forzantes ambientales de la estructura comunitaria del microfitoplancton de primavera en el océano costero de la Patagonia chilena.
(Universidad de Concepción.Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Oceanográficas.Departamento de Oceanografía.Concepción., 2023)
Aunque representan una fracción menor del océano global, los márgenes continentales son considerados ambientes que contribuyen significativamente a la productividad primaria marina. El microfitoplancton cumple un rol ...
