Forest Dynamics in South-Central Chile
Journal of Biogeography, 1981Forest structure and dynamics are analysed and compared for No thofagus-dominated forests in the Andes and for forests lacking Nothofagus in the Coastal Cordillera of the Province of Valdivia (c. 400S latitude), Chile. At mid-elevation (c. 600-950 m) in the Andes, even-aged Nothofagus stands develop on sites devastated by mass movements and volcanic ...

Seismic folding in coastal south central Chile
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1994The great (Mw = 9.3) Valdivia earthquake of May 21–22, 1960, was associated with ground deformation over a distance of over 800 km parallel to the Peru‐Chile trench. Downwarping by as much as 2.3 m affected a belt averaging a width of 100 km which was bordered by a major upwarped zone in the west, where uplift locally attained 5.7 m, and a minor ...

Successional pattern above timberline in south-central Chile
Vegetatio, 1979In the above-timberline zone of south-central Chile, stepped microtopography commonly develops on slopes of unstable volcanic ash deposits. Between the Nothofagus timberline and the high-altitude sparse fellfields, a scrubgrassland vegetation dominated by prostrate shrubs such as Empetrum rubrum and Pernettya spp. and tussock grasses such as Hierochloe

Firewood demand and energy policy in south-central Chile
Energy for Sustainable Development, 2016Abstract Firewood is the major fuel for household heating in south-central Chile and combustion of wood is the major source of air pollution by particulate matter (PM) emissions in this region. This paper discusses various strategies for lowering emissions from household wood combustion and their effectiveness in reducing air contamination.

Incidence of Cartwheeling Flights in Raptors of South-Central Chile
The Wilson Journal of Ornithology, 2015ABSTRACT Cartwheeling flight is a behavior that involves aerial locking of talons by raptors followed by a descending mutual rotation around a central axis, like a cartwheel. We provide information on 32 recorded cartwheeling events from south-central Chile involving 12 raptor species; 26 were by dyads of the same species, of which 61.5% were ...

Identification of priority areas for conservation in south-central Chile.
2007Increasing concern surrounding the loss of natural forests and the decline in biodiversity has lead to a rise in research and policy initiatives in recent years. However, interest has focused primarily on lowland tropical rainforests. Tropical montane and temperate rainforests, which face similar pressures from human activities and play major roles in ...

Miocene foraminifera from the south-central coast of Chile
Micropaleontology, 2013Foraminifera are abundant and diverse in the Neogene sedimentary units of south-central Chile (34–43ºS), but their age and depositional paleoenvironment have been points of contention for decades. The marine strata most often referred to the Navidad Formation have been a focal point of study in the region by geoscientists in academia as well as the ...
