Plant growth promotion traits of phosphobacteria isolated from Puna, Argentina
The ability of soil microorganisms to solubilize phosphate is an important trait of plant growth-promoting bacteria leading to increased yields and smaller use of fertilizers. This study presents the isolation and characterization of phosphobacteria from Puna, northwestern Argentina and the ability to produce phosphate solubilization, alkaline ...

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Teleseismic tomography of the southern Puna plateau in Argentina and adjacent regions [PDF]
Abstract We performed a teleseismic P wave tomography study using seismic events at both teleseismic and regional distances, recorded by a temporary seismic array in the Argentine Puna Plateau and adjacent regions. The tomographic images show the presence of a number of positive and negative anomalies in a depth range of 20–300 km beneath the array ...

Pleistocene mafic volcanoes in the Puna–Cordillera Oriental boundary, NW-Argentina
Abstract Los Gemelos and El Saladillo are both monogenetic, strombolian, basaltic–shoshonitic volcanoes that constitute the easternmost recognized examples of mafic Plio-Quaternary volcanism in the southern Central Andes. Two regional faults delimit the borders of the Calchaqui valley, as thrusts with opposite vergence: the eastern Calchaqui fault ...

Style and history of Andean deformation, Puna plateau, northwestern Argentina [PDF]
Topographically, the Puna plateau of northwestern Argentina is the southern continuation of the Bolivian Altiplano. Its thickening and consecutive uplift result from the Andean orogeny. To better constrain the structural style and its progressive development, we have studied field data, topographic and satellite imagery, balanced cross sections ...
