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 …

Defining the structural style of fold–thrust belts and understanding the controlling factors are
necessary steps towards prediction of their long-term and short-term dynamics, including …

The Cretaceous units exposed in the northwestern segment of the Colombian Andes
preserve the record of extensional and compressional tectonics prior to the collision with …

The retroarc Amazon region of Ecuador recorded distinct events that are preserved in the
Mesozoic-Cenozoic sedimentary record of the Subandean Zone and Oriente Basin. In this …

Mississippi Valley-type (MVT) deposits contain about 20% of global zinc resources and host
critical raw materials crucial to the development of green technologies. Despite their …

The Cretaceous tectonic evolution of the western margin of South America involves a shift
from an extensional convergent margin toward a more compressional setting that marks the …

The onset of deformation in the northern Andes is overprinted by subsequent stages of basin
deformation, complicating the examination of competing models illustrating potential …

Abstract In the Peruvian sub-Andean foreland basin system, the construction of serial
balanced cross-sections from a good set of structural data and an extensive knowledge of …

A balanced cross-section spanning the Eastern Cordillera and Subandean Zone of southern
Peru (13–15° S) constrains~ 130 km (38%) of Cenozoic orogen-normal SW–NE Andean …
