About the vertical structure of currents in the intermediate Rio de la Plata: Observational study
(Asociación Argentina de Geofísicos y Geodestas, 2002)
The Río de la Plata is one of the most important estuarine systems of the world and the most developed basin of eastern South America. Water levels and currents have been measured at many locations of the river and a number ...
Morphology and surface sedimentation on the upper and middle continental slope off Uruguay
(Faculdad de la Republic (UDELAR). Faculdad de CienciasPunta del Este, 2013-10)
This paper presents for the first time a morphological and surface sediment characterization of the Uruguayan outer continental shelf and slope. The study is based on a high-resolution coverage using hydrographical, ...
Suspended matter mean distribution and seasonal cycle in the Río de La Plata estuary and the adjacent shelf from ocean color satellite (MODIS) and in-situ observations
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2013-10)
The Río de la Plata is one of the largest and most turbid estuaries of the world, carrying a total of 160 million tonsy-1 of suspended sediments. The knowledge of their spatial distribution and their scales of variability ...
Using satellite imagery for studying the dynamics of the Rio de la Plata turbidity front
(INTERCOH, 2019)
Both remote sensing and numerical modeling studies heavily rely on field data for calibration and validation, but they are seldom used to validate each other. In this work we used the turbidity front detected from satellite ...
Radiocarbon geochronology of the sediments of the São Paulo Bight (southern Brazilian upper margin)
(Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2011)
The aim of this work was to generate an inventory of the data on radiocarbon datings obtained from sediments of the São Paulo Bight (southern Brazilian upper margin) and to analyze the data in terms of Late Quaternary ...
Morphosedimentary and hydrographic features of the northern Argentine margin: The interplay between erosive, depositional and gravitational processes and its conceptual implications
(Elsevier, 2013-01)
Bottom currents and their margin-shaping character became a central aspect in the research field of sediment dynamics and paleoceanography during the last decades due to their potential to form large contourite depositional ...
Review of the Cambrian Pampean orogeny of Argentina; a displaced orogen formerly attached to the Saldania Belt of South Africa?
(Elsevier Science, 2018-02)
The Pampean orogeny of northern Argentina resulted from Early Cambrian oblique collision of the Paleoproterozoic-Mesoproterozoic MARA block, formerly attached to Laurentia, with the Gondwanan Kalahari and Rio de la Plata ...
