Neogene erosion and. uplift of the western edge of the Andean Plateau as determined by detrital heavy mineral analysis
(2007)
Recent studies show that the western margin of the Andean plateau was uplifted during Neogene time in the form of a proto-Western Cordillera through a system of high angle reverse faults. In this study, we use XRD and ...

Velocity structure beneath the southern Puna plateau: evidence for delamination
(American Geophysical Union, 2013-10)
The high elevation of the southern Puna plateau, the widespread melting of its crust, the gap in intermediate depth seismicity and the recent eruptions of ignimbrite complexes can be explained by delamination of the ...

Mass movements are movements that occur along a slope involving the displacement of
materials (soil and/or rocks), by gravity, with or without water. In the central region of Rio
Grande do Sul, in the region geomorphologically ...
Cerrado ground-dwelling ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) as indicators of edge effects
(Sociedade Brasileira de Zoologia, 2011)
Large-scale agricultural production in Brazil preferentially occupies plateaus reclaimed from areas originally covered by Cerrado (savanna). Depending on the region, a percentage of the pristine vegetation coverage must ...

Foreland Basin Record of Uplift and Exhumation of the Eastern Cordillera, Northwest Argentina
(American Geophysical Union, 2018-11)
The style, tempo, and timing of orogenic plateaus such as the Altiplano-Puna in South America are actively debated. Foreland basin strata in northwestern Argentina preserve a record of the eastward propagation, uplift, and ...

(2020-08-01)
Mottled and high-alumina clay horizons (Gleysols) above dismantled iron crusts (Ferralsols) are widespread in the soils that developed on the flat sedimentary plateau located in western Minas Gerais State (Brazil). Field ...
Kaolinite dating from Acrisol and Ferralsol: A new key to understanding the landscape evolution in NW Amazonia (Brazil)
(2020-07-01)
Ferralsols and Acrisols are major types of soils of the Amazon basin observed on various landform units comprising plateau surfaces, incised hills at their edges and slopes. The present study focuses on an Acrisol developed ...
