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 …

Abstract The North Patagonian fold-thrust belt (41°–44° S) is characterized by a low
topography, reduced crustal thickness and a broad lateral development determined by a …

Abstract The Central Patagonia is characterized by prominent continental deposits that
belong to the Cretaceous Chubut Group Basin, whose tectonic setting remains controversial …

The end of the Early Cretaceous sag stage along the Southern Patagonian Andes is
indicated by the sudden appearance of shallow marine to deltaic sandstones on top of deep …

Previous tectonic studies have indicated that the peri-cratonic lithosphere, located away
from continental margins, is sensitive to far-field stresses propagating from active plate …

The Andes in northern Patagonia are mainly formed by Mesozoic magmatic units: the mostly
Jurassic–Cretaceous North Patagonian Batholith and volcanism of the Jurassic Lago La …

Abstract From Lower Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous, several intraplate compression events
affected discrete sectors of Central Patagonia, under a general context of crustal extension …

Abstract The Punta del Barco Formation is the uppermost unit of the upper Aptian
continental deposits of the Baqueró Group, cropping out in Argentinian Patagonia. These …

The origin, extent, and timing of intraplate contraction in Patagonia are among the least
understood geological processes of southern South America. Particularly, the intraplate …

With the break‐up of the continents of Africa and South America and the gradual opening of
the Atlantic Ocean in the late Aptian to early Albian, the global palaeoclimate and …
