Evidence is growing that a belt of Devonian plutonism is present in the Northern Patagonian segment of the present-day Andes. This plutonism formed along the paleo-Pacific margin of the Gondwana supercontinent. New whole ...

The Central Patagonia is characterized by prominent continental deposits that belong to the Cretaceous Chubut Group Basin, whose tectonic setting remains controversial. It has been interpreted as a foreland basin, an ...

The kinematic evolution of the enigmatic arc-shaped southernmost Andes of Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego has been a subject of debate for most of the past century. We compared the results from analog sandbox experiments ...

The Southern Patagonian Andes between 48° and 53° SL offers a unique opportunity to study the results of orogenic growth superimposed over a previously rifted region. In this sector the northern Austral or Magallanes basin ...

Glaciers in the northern Patagonian Andes (35-46°gS) have shown a dramatic decline in area in the last decades. However, little is known about glacier mass balance changes in this region. This study presents a geodetic ...

Desertification of Central Patagonia began between ~14–12 Ma and therefore was not directly connected to the opening of the Drake Passage and initial conformation of the Antarctica ice cap in early Miocene times. Local ...

The dramatic change in the structural trend of the Andean orogen in southernmost Patagonia has long been considered a possible example of a true orocline. Paleomagnetism has proved a powerful tool to determine whether a ...

The Central Patagonian Andes is a particular segment of the Andean Cordillera that has been subjected to the subduction of two spreading ridges during Eocene and Neogene times. In order to understand the Cenozoic geologic ...

We studied the northern tip of the Austral-Magallanes basin in the Southern Patagonian Andes, between the Buenos Aires Lake and the Mayer River at 46°35′ SL and 48°35′ SL, respectively. Proposed objectives were: i) to ...

Little Ice Age (LIA) fluctuations of Glaciar Río Manso, north Patagonian Andes, Argentina are studied using information from previous work and dendrogeomorphological analyses of living and subfossil wood. The most extensive ...
