Range‐Parallel Extension of the Andes in the 2020 Mw 5.7 Humahuaca Earthquake
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract Normal‐faulting earthquakes in mountain ranges provide important constraints on the dynamics of mountain building. To date, well‐documented examples of range‐parallel extension come primarily from the Tibetan Plateau, limiting our ability to test different models for its cause.

Can Non‐Euclidean Distances Improve Spatial Interpolation of Precipitation in Mountainous Regions?
International Journal of Climatology, Volume 45, Issue 13, 15 November 2025.The presented non‐Euclidean distances aim to better represent spatial separation in mountainous regions. Three non‐Euclidean distance metrics are evaluated. An interpolation method combining a linear precipitation‐elevation profile with residual interpolation is tested.

High-Up: A Remote Reservoir of Microbial Extremophiles in Central Andean Wetlands [PDF]
, 2015 The Central Andes region displays unexplored ecosystems of shallow lakes and salt flats at mean altitudes of 3700 m. Being isolated and hostile, these so-called “High-Altitude Andean Lakes” (HAAL) are pristine and have been exposed to little human ...

Endemic human fasciolosis in the Bolivian Altiplano
Epidemiology and Infection, 2006 SUMMARYFasciolosis, caused by trematodes of the genusFasciola, is an emerging disease of humans. One of the highest levels of human fasciolosis hepatica is found amongst the indigenous Aymaran people of the Northern Bolivian Altiplano. A meta-analysis of epidemiological surveys from 38 communities in the region demonstrates that fasciolosis has been ...

Plateau‐style accumulation of deformation: Southern Altiplano
Tectonics, 2005 Employing surface mapping of syntectonic sediments, interpretation of industry reflection‐seismic profiles, gravity data, and isotopic age dating, we reconstruct the tectonic evolution of the southern Altiplano (∼20–22°S) between the cordilleras defining its margins.
