Active faulting in the central Betic Cordillera (Spain): Palaeoseismological constraint of the surface-rupturing history of the Baza Fault (Central Betic Cordillera, Iberian Peninsula) [PDF]
Tectonophysics, 2018 This paper on the Baza Fault provides the first palaeoseismic data from trenches in the central sector of the Betic Cordillera (S Spain), one of the most tectonically active areas of the Iberian Peninsula. With the palaeoseismological data we constructed time-stratigraphic OxCal models that yield probability density functions (PDFs) of individual ...

Why is there no Coastal Cordillera at the Arica Bend (Western Central Andes)? [PDF]
Basin Research, 2016 AbstractThe architecture of the Western Andes is remarkably constant between southern Peru and northern Chile. An exception, however, is present near Arica at 18°S, where the Andes change their strike direction by ca. 50° and the Coastal Cordillera is absent over an along‐strike width of 50 km.

La cordillera oriental colombiana no se desprende de la cordillera central [PDF]
, 1999 Geologically the Central and Eastern Cordilleras depict different periods of genesis and different types of rocks which allow them to keep their identities and independence from Colombia to Bolivia; however, in the area of study are connected by a bridge formed by a recent geomorphollogical feature which is the result of combined tectonic and volcanic ...
