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

The thin-skin Sevier and thick-skin Laramide belts of the North American Cordillera provide
a long-term record of the interrelations between evolving styles of mountain building and …

利用新近完成的1: 25 万区域地质调查资料和其他相关的研究成果, 编制了第一张冈底斯带
中生代岩浆岩分布图, 初步厘定了中生代岩浆作用的分布特点和时空框架 …

We introduce the first catchment dataset for large sample studies in Chile. This dataset
includes 516 catchments; it covers particularly wide latitude (17.8 to 55.0∘ S) and elevation …

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 …

The continental crust is unique to the Earth in the solar system, and controversies remain
regarding its origin, accretion and reworking of continents. The plate tectonics theory has …

Construction of the Andes has been governed largely by fluctuating contractional, neutral,
and extensional tectonic regimes during differing degrees of mechanical coupling along the …

Subduction zones are where sediments, oceanic crust, and mantle lithosphere return to and
reequilibrate with Earth's mantle. Subduction zones are interior expressions of Earth's …

Cenozoic magmatism on the Tibetan plateau shows systematic variations in space and time
that must be considered in models concerning Tibetan tectonic evolution. After the India …

The fish faunas of continental South and Central America constitute one of the greatest
concentrations of aquatic diversity on Earth, consisting of about 10 percent of all living …
