Neogene retroarc foreland basin evolution, sediment provenance, and magmatism in response to flat slab subduction, western Argentina
(American Geophysical Union, 2020-05)
Understanding the effects of flat slab subduction on mountain building, arc magmatism, and basin evolution is fundamental to convergent-margin tectonics, with implications for potential feedbacks among geodynamic, magmatic, ...
A Toarcian retro-arc basin of Central Patagonia (Chubut), Argentina: Middle Jurassic closure,arc migration and tectonic setting
(Servicio Nacional de Geología y Minería (SERNAGEOMIN), 2007)
Magmatic Evolution of the Southernmost Andes and its Relation with Subduction Processes
(Springer, 2015)
The magmatic arc in the SouthernmostAndes is represented by the Fuegian Batholith and satellite plutons, plus minorvolcanic and volca-niclastic sequences. Magmatism was active from the LateJurassic to the Miocene in response ...
Characterization of the depocenters and the basement structure, below the central Chile Andean Forearc: a 3D geophysical modelling in Santiago Basin area
(Wiley, 2018-08)
Since the last century, several geological and geophysical studies have been developed in the Santiago Basin to understand its morphology and tectonic evolution. However, some uncertainties regarding sedimentary fill ...
Pacific subduction coeval with the Karoo mantle plume: the Early Jurasssic Subcordilleran belt of northwestern Patagonia
(Geological Society of London, 2005)
Sedimentologic and stratigraphic evolution of the Cacheuta basin: Constraints on the development of the Miocene retroarc foreland basin, south-central Andes
(Geological Society of America, 2018-06)
Retroarc foreland basins in contractional arc settings contain evidence of temporal and spatial variations in magmatic activity, deformation, and exhumation along the continental margin and serve as excellent recorders of ...
The tectonic regime along the Andes: Present-day and Mesozoic regimes
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2010-01)
The analyses of the main parameters controlling the present Chile-type and Marianas-type tectonic settings developed along the eastern Pacific region show four different tectonic regimes: (1) a nearly neutral regime in the ...
U–Pb and Sm–Nd constraints on miocene units in the Ischigualasto-Villa Unión foreland basin, Sierras Pampeanas, Argentina: Sedimentary provenance, landscape evolution coupling flat-slab subduction
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-03)
Foreland basin systems are intimately linked to thrust belts and activation and reactivation of structures in association with convergent plate dynamics, capable of controlling regional uplifts, sedimentation, as well as ...
The westward lithospheric drift, its role on the subduction and transform zones surrounding Americas: Andean to cordilleran orogenic types cyclicity
(Elsevier, 2020-07)
We investigate the effect of the westerly rotation of the lithosphere on the active margins that surround the Americas and find good correlations between the inferred easterly-directed mantle counterflow and the main ...
