3D data-derived lithospheric structure of the Central Andes and its implications for deformation: insights from gravity and geodynamic modelling
We present a new three-dimensional density model of the Central Andes characterizing the
structure and composition of the lithosphere together with a geodynamic simulation …

Quantifying drainage-divide migration from orographic rainfall over geologic timescales: Sierra de Aconquija, southern Central Andes
Drainage-divide migration, controlled by rock-uplift and rainfall patterns, may play a major
role in the geomorphic evolution of mountain ranges. However, divide-migration rates over …

Episodic out-of-sequence deformation promoted by Cenozoic fault reactivation in NW Argentina
P Payrola, C del Papa, A Aramayo, H Pingel, F Hongn… - Tectonophysics, 2020 - Elsevier
Abstract The Central Andes are the product of contractional deformation related to
subduction of the Nazca plate beneath the South American continent. In this geodynamic …

Milankovitch-paced erosion in the southern Central Andes
It has long been hypothesized that climate can modify both the pattern and magnitude of
erosion in mountainous landscapes, thereby controlling morphology, rates of deformation …
