Heterologous microsatellite-based genetic diversity in blue mussel (Mytilus chilensis) and differentiation among localities in southern Chile

Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2015
Mussels (Mytilus spp.) are one of the most cultivated and commercialized bivalves in southern Chile; culture is currently supplied almost entirely from wild-caught seed obtained from relatively few collection centers.

Late Holocene Increase in Influence of Pacific Deep Water off Southern Chile Caused by Migration of the Southern Westerly Wind: Evidence From Beryllium Isotopes

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
The Southern Hemisphere westerly winds and the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, both located offshore Chile, are key components of global climate due to their influence on Southern Ocean upwelling and nutrient utilization with implications for atmospheric ...

Axial morphology along the Southern Chile Rise [PDF]

Marine Geology, 2012
Abstract Morphology of four spreading segments on the southern Chile Rise is described based on multi-beam bathymetric data collected along the axial zones. The distribution of axial volcanoes, the character of rift valley scarps, and the average depths vary between Segment 1 in the south, terminating at the Chile Triple Junction, and Segment 4 in ...

Postseismic coastal uplift in southern Chile

Geophysical Research Letters, 1992
Tide gage records at Puerto Montt, referenced to a mareograph in Talcahuano, indicate a large (at least 75 cm) postseismic uplift of the region following the 1960 Mw = 9.5 event. Field observations carried out in 1989 at the same locations of previous measurements in 1968 are consistent with tide gage records.

Deep lithospheric structures along the southern central Chile Margin from wide-angle P-wave modellilng [PDF]

, 2009
Crustal- and upper-mantle structures of the subduction zone in south central Chile, between 42 degrees S and 46 degrees S, are determined from seismic wide-angle reflection and refraction data, using the seismic ray tracing method to calculate minimum ...
