Glacial dynamics in southernmost South America during Marine Isotope Stage 5e to the Younger Dryas chron: a brief review with a focus on cosmogenic nuclide measurements
(JOHN WILEY & SONS, 2008-10)
The timing of major glacial changes between Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5e and the Younger Dryas chron (YD) in southern South America is reviewed. Focus is placed on studies that use cosmogenic nuclide measurements. However, ...
Past human populations and landscapes in the Fuegian Archipelago, southernmost South America
(Cambridge University Press, 2019-09)
This contribution discusses possible relationships between human populations and Holocene environmental deterioration phenomena (cold/arid pulses and volcanic eruptions) in the Fuegian Archipelago (South America), based ...
Late Quaternary environmental changes in southernmost South America reflected in marine calcareous macro-and-microfossils
(Elsevier, 2012-11)
Late Quaternary environmental changes, especially sea-level fluctuations and glacial advances and retreats, affected the distribution of the benthic marine fauna which inhabited the Beagle Channel in southernmost South ...
The initial peopling of Central Western Patagonia (southernmost South America): Late Pleistocene through Holocene site context and archaeological assemblages from Cueva de la Vieja site
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-04)
This article discusses new data on the initial peopling of Central Western Patagonia based on research conducted at the Cueva de la Vieja site (45°16′27″ S; 71°32′24″ W, 718 masl), contextualizing this event it in the ...
Geophysical methods applied to Quaternary studies in glacial environments: Río Valdez outcrop, Tierra del Fuego, Argentina
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-08-10)
In the Río Valdez mouth, located in the southeastern coast of Fagnano lake, Tierra del Fuego, an outcrop of 7 m thick lacustrine sediments was identified. Taking into account geomorphological and sedimentological surveys, ...
Hunter-gatherer mobility and technological landscapes in southernmost South America: A statistical learning approach
(Royal Society Publishing, 2018-10)
The present work aims to quantitatively explore and understand the relationship between mobility types (nautical versus pedestrian), specific technological traits and shared technological knowledge in pedestrian hunter-gatherer ...
Structure and tectonic evolution of the Fuegian Andes (southernmost South America) in the framework of the Scotia Arc development
(Elsevier Science, 2014-12)
The major structural and tectonic features of the Fuegian Andes provide an outstanding onshore geological framework that aids in the understanding of the tectonic evolution of the Scotia Arc, mainly known from offshore ...
Detection of lamprey in Southernmost South America by environmental DNA (eDNA) and molecular evidence for a new species
(Springer, 2020-03)
Lampreys are jawless fishes belonging to the order Petromyzontiformes. Geotria australis is the sole representative lamprey species of the Geotriidae family and is widely distributed around South America, Australia, New ...
Flammability features of native and non-native woody species from the southernmost ecosystems: a review
(2024)
Background: Vegetation plays a crucial role in the ignition, propagation, and severity of fre, and understanding the relationship between plants and fre through fammability attributes has become a useful tool that is ...
The southernmost record of a large erethizontid rodent (Hystricomorpha: Erethizontoidea) in the Pleistocene of South America: Biogeographic and paleoenvironmental implications
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-03)
The South American porcupines (Erethizontidae) are included in two genera: Chaetomys and Coendou. The latter is a very speciose taxon, with about 13 living species. During at least the late Pliocene–early Pleistocene, ...
