Mountain building in the Andes, the longest continental mountain range on Earth, started in
the Late Cretaceous but was highly diachronous. Reconstructing the timing of surface uplift …

Water plays a critical role in erosion and sediment transport and this relationship is most
evident in the hyperarid Atacama Desert of Northern Chile, a region characterized by …

The paleoelevation history and geodynamic evolution of the Bangong suture zone in the
central Tibetan Plateau are hotly debated, with existing estimates showing contrasting …

Mountainous areas host a disproportionately large fraction of Earth's biodiversity, suggesting
a causal relationship between mountain building and biological diversification. Mountain …

Mountains are among the most biodiverse regions on the planet, and how these landforms
shape diversification through the interaction of biological traits and geo-climatic dynamics is …

Backstripped tectonic basin subsidence histories are critical for interpreting phases of
lithospheric deformation and paleoenvironmental change from the stratigraphic record. This …

The Amazon hosts one of the largest and richest rainforests in the world, but its origins
remain debated. Growing evidence suggests that geodiversity and geological history played …

We report a mountain-scale record of erosion rates in the central Patagonian Andes from>
10 million years (Ma) ago to present, which covers the transition from a fluvial to alpine …

Abstract The Southern Patagonian Andes at the latitude of the Chile Triple junction in
Argentina and Chile (46°–47.5° S) are the object of an ongoing discussion regarding their …

Hydrogen stable isotope values of hydrated volcanic glass as a proxy for the isotopic
composition of past meteoric waters provide an opportunity for reconstructing past climates …
