The North Patagonian Orogen: Meso-Cenozoic Evolution from the Andes to the Foreland Area
(Springer, 2015)
In the last decades an important amount of studies have dealt with the Patagonian orogen. However, an holistic approach on the evolution of this sector has not been addressed yet. A review of recent advances in different ...
U-Pb Zircon Geochronology and Nd Isotopic Signatures of the Pre-Mesozoic Metamorphic Basement of the Eastern Peruvian Andes: Growth and Provenance of a Late Neoproterozoic to Carboniferous Accretionary Orogen on the Northwest Margin of Gondwana
(The University of Chicago PressUS, 2009-05)
This study integrates U-Pb zircon geochronology (from LAM-ICP-MS, SHRIMP, and TIMS) with Nd isotopic data from orthogneisses and metasedimentary rocks of the pre-Mesozoic basement of the eastern Peruvian Andes to provide ...
Archean and paleoproterozoic crust generation events, Amparo complex and Serra Negra orthogneiss in southern Brasília Orogen, SE Brazil
(2019-03-01)
The Amparo Complex and Serra Negra orthogneisses consists largely of Archean and Paleoproterozoic domains, which represent the older tectonizied basement of Ribeira Belt, southeastern portion of the Brasília Neoproterozoic ...
U-PB geochronology and magnetostratigraphy of a north Patagonian syn-orogenic Miocene succession: Tectono-stratigraphic implications for the foreland system configuration
(Elsevier Science, 2019-09)
The syn-orogenic Miocene deposits of the Patagonian Foreland System were the focus of numerous works in the latest years, due to their central role in the comprehension of the tectono-stratigraphy and tectonic evolution ...
Episodic out of sequence deformation promoted by Cenozoic fault reactivation in NW Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2020-02-05)
The Central Andes are the product of contractional deformation related to subduction of the Nazca plate beneath the South American continent. In this geodynamic setting, thrust belt propagation in the Central Andean ...
The geodynamic history of the Famatinian arc, Argentina: A record of exposed geology over the type section (latitudes 27°- 33° south)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020-06-14)
The Famatinian arc, over central-western Argentina, is one of the few examples of exposed crustal arc cross-section in the world. This Paleozoic magmatic arc and orogenic system on the Earth's surface offers unique insights ...
Alternating contraction and extension in the southern central andes (35°-37°s)
(Amer Journal Science, 2019-05)
The Andes are thought to be formed through discrete contractional stages separated by periods of little to no orogenic construction. This paper analyzes the intervals between the main contractional phases that built the ...
Coupled tectonic evolution of Andean orogeny and global climate
(Elsevier, 2015)
The largest tectonic relief breaking the Earth's surface (13 km vertically) is at the subduction margin of the Andes, which generates routinely megathrust earthquakes (Mw > 8.5) and drives the paradigmatic Andean orogen. ...
Northward propagation of Andean genesis: Insights from Early Cretaceous synorogenic deposits in the Aysén-Río Mayo basin
(Elsevier Science, 2020-01)
Decoding the earliest orogenic stages in the Andes, the largest subduction orogen on Earth is fundamental to understanding changes in climate, drainage organization, and biodiversity in South America. Furthermore, it is ...
Tectonic development of the North Patagonian Andes and their related Miocene foreland basin (41°30'-43°S)
(American Geophysical Union, 2012-06)
The Northern Patagonian Andes have been constructed through multiple mechanisms that range from tectonic inversion of extensional structures of Early to Middle Jurassic age in the Main Andes to Oligocene in the Precordilleran ...
