Palaeomagnetic study of cenozoic rocks cropping out in the Southern Puna: New data on tectonic rotations

Mostrar todas las versiones(3)

In the Central Andes of southern Bolivia, northern Chile and north-western Argentina, a pattern of clockwise vertical axis rotations has been palaeomagnetically determined in Mesozoic and Cenozoic rocks cropping out in the Andean fore-arc and back-arc. The origin of these rotations is controversial....
