Integration of regional stratigraphic relationships with data on sediment accumulation,
provenance, paleodrainage, and deformation timing enables a reconstruction of Mesozoic …

Broken foreland basins are caused by crustal-scale contractional basement structures that
compartmentalize (or break) a contiguous retroarc or collisional foreland basin into smaller …

Construction of the Andes has been governed largely by fluctuating contractional, neutral,
and extensional tectonic regimes during differing degrees of mechanical coupling along the …

The origin of the Chon Aike silicic large igneous province (SLIP) is a matter of intense
debate, with contrasting hypotheses that range from intraplate settings linked to mantle …

This study synthesizes the tectonomagmatic evolution of the Andes between 35° 30′ S to
48° S with the aim to spotlight early contractional phases on Andean orogenic building and …

Paleogeographic maps are essential tools for understanding Earth system dynamics. They
provide boundary conditions for climate and geodynamic modelling, for analysing surface …

Continental crust exhibits areas of recurrent deformation and reactivation of faults that can
be persistent for hundreds of millions of years. Associated with weak lithospheric zones, the …

Richly fossiliferous upper Oligocene to lower Miocene Patagoniense marine deposits
constitute a conspicuous feature of the sedimentary record of most basins in Patagonia …

Key Points We utilize detrital apatite fission track to unravel the enigmatic timing and origin
of post‐rift unconformities of the Songliao Basin We propose Paleo‐Pacific influenced …

The arrival and subsequent stagnation of the Farallon/Nazca slab at the mantle transition
zone below southern South America triggered seemingly unrelated large-scale geological …
