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 …

Accretionary orogens form at intraoceanic and continental margin convergent plate
boundaries. They include the supra-subduction zone forearc, magmatic arc and back-arc …

U/Pb detrital zircon ages from global modern river sediments define eight peak clusters
centered at 2700, 2500, 2010, 1840, 1600, 1150, 600, and 300 Ma. These clusters extend …

In this classic segment, many tectonic processes, like flat-subduction, terrane accretion and
steepening of the subduction, among others, provide a robust framework for their …

We present detrital zircon UPb SHRIMP age patterns for the central segment (34–42° S) of
an extensive accretionary complex along coastal Chile together with ages for some relevant …

Arc magmatism at subduction zones (SZs) most voluminously supplies juvenile igneous
material to build rafts of continental and intra-oceanic or island arc (CIA) crust. Return or …

En este trabajo se describe la estratigrafía sedimentaria y volcánica asociada a los
procesos de deformación de las unidades con edades del Cretácico Tardío al Plioceno …

Based on a compilation of published and new seismic refraction and multichannel seismic
reflection data along the south central Chile margin (33°–46° S), we study the processes of …

Thus far, relatively simplistic models of free subduction, in which the trench and plate
motions are emergent features completely driven by the negative buoyancy of the slab, have …

Subduction erosion shapes at least half of the world's convergent margins. However, its
rates, and modes as well as spatial and temporal variation are poorly understood. Based on …
