[HTML][HTML] Andean mountain building since the Late Cretaceous: A paleoelevation reconstruction
LM Boschman - Earth-Science Reviews, 2021 - Elsevier
Mountain building in the Andes, the longest continental mountain range on Earth, started in

[HTML][HTML] Coupled tectonic evolution of Andean orogeny and global climate
The largest tectonic relief breaking the Earth's surface (13 km vertically) is at the subduction
margin of the Andes, which generates routinely megathrust earthquakes (Mw> 8.5) and …

Linking orography, climate, and exhumation across the central Andes
Quantifying interactions between uplift, climate, deformation, and exhumation remains
difficult, in many cases due to a paucity of data relevant to all processes. We synthesize new …
