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

Shortening of the continental lithosphere is generally accommodated by the growth of
crustal wedges building above megathrusts in the mantle lithosphere. We show that the …

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 …

Laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) analyses of 29
samples from the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia reveal the origin of northern Andean …

Landslides typify one of the most hazardous natural phenomena fostering economic and
even human losses worldwide. Several countries like Colombia, in South America, are …

New thermochronometric data from the Eastern Cordillera of the Colombian Andes reveal
diachronous exhumation associated with Cenozoic contractional deformation in this sector …

Uncommonly long‐lived subduction and variable plate geometry along the South American
Andean Plate margin resulted in diverse relationships between magmatic flux and …

Abstract The Cordillera of the Andes is a double-vergent orogenic belt built up by thickening
of South American plate crust. Several models provide plausible explanations for the …

Previously unreleased fission-track results and regional structural relationships are used to
interpret the migration of deformation during Cenozoic orogenesis in the Eastern Cordillera …

Abstract The heterogeneous South American geology has coined a wide variety of
neotectonic settings where crustal seismogenic sources do occur. This fact has led to …
