Exposure dating of boulders has been widely applied to determine the age of depositional
surfaces under the assumption that the pre-depositional nuclide component in most …

During the last few hundred years several destructive earthquakes occurred along the
eastern margin of the Andean Precordillera, where GPS data reveal a shortening rate of∼ …

Fault-propagation folding occurs when a shallow fold is created by an underlying
propagating thrust fault. These structures are common features of fold and thrust belts and …

The Quaternary orogenic front of the Andes at 32° 10'S is characterized by abrupt changes
in the structural style and surface expression of recent deformation, due to the reactivation of …

A significant part of the Quaternary shortening between the Chilean trench and the relative
stable interior of the South American plate at the Pampean flat slab (27–33° S), has been …

Fault-propagation folds are common structures within fold and thrust belts. The trishear
kinematic model has been widely used to understand the kinematics and geometry of these …

Abstract The NNW-trending Las Peñas Thrust System is one of the key structures along the
Andean orogenic front between 32° 15′ and 32° 40′ S in the Southern Precordillera of …

El actual frente orogénico activo de los Andes centrales abarca parte del piedemonte
mendocino, ubicado cerca de la ciudad capital, donde habitan al menos 800.000 personas …

At the latitude of 32–33° S, the orogenic front of the eastern flank of the Andes is located in
the Southern Precordillera, where two major thrusts concentrate Quaternary deformation at …

New research in the petroliferous area of Tupungato, Mendoza Province, central-western
Argentina, has revealed a much richer fossil assemblage than previously known for this …
