Invasive African clawed frog Xenopus laevis in southern South America: key factors and predictions
(Taylor & Francis, 2013)
The African clawed frog Xenopus laevis is one of the most widely distributed amphibians in the world. It has
invaded an area of approximately 21,200 km2 since its naturalization in Chile in the early 1980s. Currently, ...
First record on an amphibian in the canopy of temperate rainforests of southern South America: Eupsophus calcaratus (Cycloramphidae)
(UNIV AUSTRAL CHILE, FAC CIENCIAS FORESTALES, 2010-04-05)
We record for the first time arboreal habits in amphibians from the temperate rainforests of southern South America. In April 2006 we collected an individual of Eupsophus calcaratus at 16 m height, in a large Eucryphia ...
Chronological database for Southern Chile (35 30'e42 S), ~33000 BP to present: Human implications and archaeological biases
(Elsevier, 2015)
A chronological database of 398 dates (247 C-14 dates, 148 thermoluminescence dates, and 3 obsidian hydration dates), covering the early peopling period up to the present, is presented for Southern Chile. This information ...
A review of Tertiary climate changes in southern South America and the Antarctic Peninsula. Part 1: Oceanic conditions
(Elsevier, 2012)
Oceanic conditions around southern South America and the Antarctic Peninsula have a major influence on climate
patterns in these subcontinents. During the Tertiary, changes in ocean water temperatures and currents
also ...
On the persistence of Tropical Paleofloras in central Chile during the Early Eocene
(ELSEVIER, 2005-11)
Mixed paleofloras first appeared during the Early Eocene of southern South America. These floras were a blend of cold and warm taxa with Austral-Antarctic and Neotropical affinities. Despite the onset of mixed floras, ...
Extreme ENSO-driven torrential rainfalls at the southern edge of the Atacama Desert during the Late Holocene and their projection into the 21th century
(Elsevier B.V., 2019)
Extreme precipitation events and multi-annual droughts, especially in arid to semi-arid subtropical regions, are among the most critical El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and global climate change impacts. Here, we assess ...

Antiquity of mtDNA lineage D1g from the southern cone of South America supports pre Clovis migration
(Elsevier, 2017)
The southern cone of South America has been an important source of information regarding the early
peopling of the Americas. The discovery of the Monte Verde site was revolutionary; it led to wide
acceptance of the ...
Spread and impact of introduced conifers in South America: Lessons from other southern hemisphere regions

The history of conifers introduced earlier elsewhere in the southern hemisphere suggests that recent
invasions in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Uruguay are likely to increase in number and size. In South Africa, New
Zealand ...
Multiply nested regional climate simulation for southern South America: Sensitivity to model resolution
(AMER METEOROLOGICAL SOC, 2006-08)
Results are reported from two 5-month-long simulations for southern South America using the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University - NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5). The periods of simulation correspond to May - September ...
