An introduction to the Geodynamic Evolution of the Southernmost Andes: Connections with the Scotia Arc
(Springer, 2016)
The backbone of this book is the analysis of the relation between the tectonic evolution of the Southernmost Andes and its southern neighbors: Antarctica and the Scotia Sea. The Southernmost Andes comprise the southern ...
Orogenic Growth of the Fuegian Andes (52–56°) and Their Relation to Tectonics of the Scotia Arc
(Springer, 2016)
The tectonic evolution of the Fuegian Andes is strongly related to their southern neighbors, the Scotia Sea and Antarctica. During Mesozoic times, extensional and magmatic processes in the southernmost Andes developed in ...
Diversidad y similitudes faunísticas de los bivalvos de las Islas del Arco de ScotiaThe bivalves from the Scotia Arc Islands: species diversity and faunistic affinities
(Instituto de Ciencias del Mar Barcelona, 2005-12)
Species richness of the shallow-water bivalves from the Scotia Arc islands was studied on the basis of new collections and by reviewing extant information. Seventy-three species are recognised from the entire area. South ...
Structure and tectonic evolution of the Fuegian Andes (southernmost South America) in the framework of the Scotia Arc development
(Elsevier Science, 2014-12)
The major structural and tectonic features of the Fuegian Andes provide an outstanding onshore geological framework that aids in the understanding of the tectonic evolution of the Scotia Arc, mainly known from offshore ...
Wrenching Tectonism in the Southernmost Andes and the Scotia Sea Constrained from Fault Kinematic and Seismotectonic Overviews
(Springer, 2016)
The geodynamics of the study area includes subduction, orogen dynamics, and major transcurrent tectonics at a complex transform margin in the southern ocean. We present a synthesis of the fault system associated to major ...
Divergence between Antarctic and South American marine invertebrates: what molecular biology tells us about Scotia Arc geodynamics and the intensification of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current
(Elsevier, 2014)
Continental drift processes such as major gateway openings have been historically advocated to explain the distribution of marine benthic taxa in the Southern Ocean (SO). The separation between Antarctic Peninsula and the ...
Mesozoic tectonic evolution of the south Orkney microcontinent, Scotia arc, Antarctica
(Cambridge University Press, 1997-05-01)
The South Orkney Islands are the exposed part of a continental fragment on the southern limb of the Scotia are. The islands are to a large extent composed of metapelites and metagreywackes of probable Triassic sedimentary ...

The Scotia-Antarctica plate boundary from 35°W to 45°W
(Elsevier Science, 2010-04)
A compilation of available multichannel seismic profiles acquired along the southern margin of the Scotia Sea east of the South Orkney microcontinent has allowed identifying and mapping the main morphological and structural ...
