Intoxication of llamas by Astragalus punae in Argentina
Several plants that contain indolizidine alkaloids, including swainsonine, are toxic to livestock, causing dysfunctional lysosomes and storage disease. Swainsonine induces a neurovisceral disease, known as locoism, in sheep, goats, and cattle, which occurs in several parts of the world, including, but not limited to, the western United States, China ...

Aerodynamic Roughness Height of Gravel-covered Plains in the Puna of Argentina
Abstract Plains covered by gravel-dominated desert pavement in the Puna of Argentina have an aerodynamic roughness height (or length) z 0 of ∼1 cm, likely representing a skimming flow regime above the closely spaced gravel particles. Aerodynamic roughness height locally may transition from that of skimming flow over the

Lithium and Brine Geochemistry in the Salars of the Southern Puna, Andean Plateau of Argentina [PDF]
Abstract The Andean plateau is a small region of South America extending between northwest Argentina, southwest Bolivia, and northern Chile. It concentrates the largest global resources of lithium brines in its numerous salars. Of these, the giant salars in Bolivia and Chile have been relatively well studied; however, only little is ...

Eocene exhumation and basin development in the Puna of northwestern Argentina [PDF]
The Puna is part of the larger Puna‐Altiplano Plateau (also known as the Central Andean Plateau), characterized by high elevation, low relief, and aridity, located in the central Andes of Bolivia and Argentina. Tertiary sedimentary rocks preserved within the Puna contain a unique archive of information regarding the paleogeography, depositional ...
