The southern Puna plateau is a conspicuous example of a high-elevation orogenic plateau
in a non-collisional setting. This orogenic sector is currently located above an anomalously …

Abstract The Tarapacá Basin is one of the larger basins created on the western margin of
South America during the Mesozoic times. Regional studies focused their attention on …

The tectonic evolution of the Andean forearc in the Central Andes is understood by the
superimposition of deformational events associated with different tectonic regimes, which …

A multidisciplinary study supported by field data and 2-D seismic information was conducted
to understand the tectonic interactions between Mesozoic to Cenozoic extensional and …

The tectonic evolution of the Andean forearc in northern Chile has commonly been related to
superimposed deformational events associated with different tectonic settings. The eastern …

Thick-and thin-skinned “hybrid” thrust belts are typically developed in areas where crustal
shortening was preceded by extension and normal faulting. They have been recognized in …

Recent studies focus in the forearc tectonic and structural evolution evidencing the strong
control of the pre-orogenic structures in the accommodation of the Andean shortening and …

Abstract The late Mesozoic-Cenozoic evolution of the Central Andes of northern Chile
consists of a series of events related to changing conditions along the plate margin, leading …

We integrated new field observations, two‐dimensional (2‐D) seismic profiles and new and
previously reported chronological data to understand the effects of pre‐orogenic structures …

In geoparks and other natural protected areas, a geodiversity inventory is essential for the
identification, characterization, quantification, and management of geoheritage. The …
