The Pampean flat-slab of the Central Andes
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2002-12)
Late Cenozoic Andean deformation in the Pampean segment of Argentina and Chile (27°00′-33°30′S) provides an exceptional opportunity to study the orogenic effects of flat subduction in an active convergent margin. At these ...
Crustal structure of the high Andes in the North Pampean flat slab segment from magnetic and gravity data
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-01)
The Main Andes at the northern Chilean-Pampean flat slab segment were formed by the inversion of late Oligocene to early Miocene extensional depocenters in Neogene times. Their structure, size and depth are loosely constrained ...
The Maipo Orocline: a first scale structural feature in the Miocene to Recent geodynamic evolution in the central Chilean Andes.
(2013)
In this paper we show the results of a paleomagnetic study carried out along the western Andes of central Chile from 30° to 36°S. Whereas paleomagnetic analysis from Jurassic to Late Cretaceous rocks in the Pampean flat ...
A review about the quaternary upper-plate deformation in the Southern Central Andes (36–38°S): A plausible interaction between mantle dynamics and tectonics
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-11)
Quaternary deformation in the Southern Central Andes between 36° and 38°S is disconnected, noncontinuous and not particularly tracing the main mountain topographic fronts. This pattern contrasts to the one to the north ...
Gravitational deformation and inherited structural control on slope morphology in the subduction zone of north-central Chile (ca. 29-33 degrees S)
(Wiley, 2017)
Subduction zones provide direct insight into plate boundary deformation and by studying these areas we better understand tectonic processes and variability over time. We studied the structure of the offshore subduction ...
Holocene shortening rates of an Andean-front thrust, Southern Precordillera, Argentina
(Elsevier, 2015-09)
A significant part of the Quaternary shortening between the Chilean trench and the relative stable interior of the South American plate at the Pampean flat slab (27–33°S), has been accommodated at the eastern foothills of ...
Active Deformation, Uplift and Subsidence in Southern South America Throughout the Quaternary: A General Review About Their Development and Mechanisms
(Springer, 2016)
A broad range of processes act today and have acted simultaneously during the Quaternary, producing relief from the Chilean coast, where the Pacific Ocean floor is sinking underneath the South American margin, to the ...
