Kinematics of the active West Andean fold-and-thrust belt (central Chile): Structure and long-term shortening rate
(Blackwell, 2017)
West verging thrusts, synthetic with the Nazca-South America subduction interface, have beenrecently discovered at the western front of the Andes. At ~33°300S, the active San Ramón fault stands asthe most frontal of these ...
Tectonic Setting of the Tordillo Formation in the Aconcagua Fold-and-Thrust Belt
(Springer, 2020)
At the northwestern Mendoza province, the Mesozoic infill of the Neuquén Basin is tectonically repeated in the Aconcagua fold-and-thrust belt. Particularly, the Tordillo Formation (commonly associated with the Kimmeridgian) ...
Structural style of the Malargüe fold-and-thrust belt at the Diamante River area (34°30'-34°50'S) and its linkage with the Cordillera Frontal, Andes of central Argentina
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2010-04)
The Malargüe fold-and-thrust belt is a thick-skinned belt developed in Miocene-Pliocene times during the Andean orogeny, which together with the Cordillera Frontal constitutes the Andes of central Argentina in the Diamante ...
Miocene to Quaternary deformation of the Guañacos fold-and-thrust belt in the Neuquén Andes between 37°S and 37°30′S
(Geological Society of America, 2006)
The fold and thrust belt of the Neuquén Andes between 37° and 37°30´S can be divided into two sectors that show contrasting evolutionary styles.The outer or eastern section contains the relatively well known Agrio and Chos ...
Influence of the orientation of cohesive blocks upon the structural grain of fold-and-thrust belts: An appraisal by means of analogue modeling
(Elsevier, 2020)
Analogue sand-box experiments have been set up to illustrate and analyze the control exerted by lithological heterogeneities on the evolution of a model fold-and-thrust belt (FTB). The structural architecture within many ...
Influence of the orientation of cohesive blocks upon the structural grain of fold-and-thrust belts: An appraisal by means of analogue modeling
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020-11)
Analogue sand-box experiments have been set up to illustrate and analyze the control exerted by lithological heterogeneities on the evolution of a model fold-and-thrust belt (FTB). The structural architecture within many ...
Superposed deformation in the Península Mitre recess (Fuegian thrust-fold belt, Southern Argentina), and implications for orogenic curve kinematics
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-12)
A detailed study of the structure of the Península Mitre recess in the Fuegian thrust-fold belt of southern Argentina reveals superposed deformation related to contrasting shortening directions. One group of structures ...
