Andean Tectonics

Overview

1. Seismic structure along the South American subduction zone using satellite gravity data

2. Control of subduction erosion and sediment accretion processes on the trench curvature of the central Chilean margin

3. Measuring dynamic topography in South America

Northern Andes

4. Cenozoic tectonic evolution of the North Andes with constraints from volcanic ages, seismic reflection, and satellite geodesy

5. Thermochronological constraints on Cenozoic exhumation along the southern Caribbean: The Santa Marta range, northern Colombia

6. Discriminating mechanisms for coarse clastic progradation in the Colombian foreland basin using detrital zircon double-dating

7. Latest Triassic to Early Cretaceous tectonics of the Northern Andes: Geochronology, geochemistry, isotopic tracing and thermochronology

8. Late Cretaceous to Miocene stratigraphy and provenance of the coastal forearc and Western Cordillera of Ecuador: Evidence for accretion of a single oceanic plateau fragment

9. Provenance and geochronological insights into Late Cretaceous-Cenozoic foreland basin development in the Subandean Zone and Oriente Basin of Ecuador

Central Andes

11. Western thrusting and uplift in northern Central Andes (western Peruvian margin)

12. Structural controls along the Peruvian Subandes

13. Provenance and recycling of detrital zircons from Cenozoic Altiplano strata and the crustal evolution of western South America from combined U-Pb and Lu-Hf isotopic analysis

14. Structure and tectonic evolution of the Interandean and Subandean fold and thrust belts of Bolivia

15. Structural and thermochronologic constraints on kinematics and timing of inversion of the Salta Rift in the Tonco-Amblayo sector of the Andean retroarc fold-thrust belt, northwestern Argentina
