Late cretaceous to cenozoic deformation and exhumation of the chilean frontal cordillera (28°–29°S), Central Andes
(Elsevier, 2017)
The Frontal Cordillera in northern Chile is located over the flat-slab subduction segment of the Central Andes.
This tectonic province is characterized by a thick-skinned structural style showing evidence of tectonic ...
Tracking triggering mechanisms for soft-sediment deformation structures in the Late Cretaceous Uberaba Formation, Bauru Basin, Brazil
(Soc Brasileira Geologia, 2020-01-01)
Soft-sediment deformation (SSD) structures are widespread in the sedimentary record, and numerous triggering mechanisms can induce its development, including glaciation, earthquakes, overloading, ground-water fluctuations, ...
Andean evolution at the Guañacos and Chos Malal fold and thrust belts (36°30′-37°s)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2007-10)
The Andes between 36°30′ and 37°S represent a Cretaceous fold and thrust belt strongly reactivated in the late Miocene. Most of the features that absorbed Neogene shortening were already uplifted in the late Cretaceous, ...
The Cretaceous Layers Later than the Early Cretaceous
(Springer, 2019)
The marine continuity after the Early Cretaceous implies an essential difference with the condition in the orogenic belt with a N-S trend of the Patagonian Cordillera. But this important difference does not avoid the matter ...
The first andean compressive tectonic phase: sedimentologic and structural analysis of mid-cretaceous deposits in the coastal cordillera, Central Chile (32 degrees 50'S)
(AGU, 2020)
We document the effects of major mid-Cretaceous to Late Cretaceous compression within the volcanic arc of the western Gondwanan margin. The thinned Early Cretaceous Andean margin underwent rapid thickening and shortening-related ...
Early foreland deformation of the Fuegian Andes (Argentina): Constraints from the strain analysis of Upper Cretaceous-Danian sedimentary rocks
(Elsevier, 2013-01)
This contribution addresses new structural data from Upper Cretaceous-Danian sedimentary rocks of the Fuegian Andes orogenic front in Argentina. The structures studied, called D0 , were formed during the early foreland ...
Soft-sediment deformation structures in gravelly fluvial deposits: A record of Cretaceous seismic activity in Patagonia?
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-03)
Cretaceous sedimentary rocks corresponding to the Las Plumas Member of the Cerro Barcino Formation were deposited in the eastern margin of the Somuncurá - Cañadón Asfalto Basin. The analyzed succession records alluvial ...
Study on the gravitational flow directions of the Maracangalha Formation (Early Cretaceous), Bom Despacho, NNE area of Itaparica Island, Bahia, Brazil
(Sociedade Brasileira de Geologia, 2019)
Sedimentary evolution of distributive fluvial systems within intraplate tectonic active basins: Case study of the Early Cretaceous Araripina Formation (Araripe Basin, NE Brazil)
(2021-11-01)
The Lower Cretaceous Araripina Formation records deposition in a distributive fluvial system that is a part of the post-rift sequence of the Araripe Basin, NE Brazil. Following the opening of the Brazilian Equatorial Margin, ...
