Plateau reduction by drainage divide migration in the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia defined by morphometry and 10Be terrestrial cosmogenic nuclides
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Earth Surface Processes and Landforms"
DOI: 10.1002/esp.4079
Abstract: Catchment-wide erosion rates were defined using 10Be terrestrial cosmogenic nuclides for the Eastern Cordillera of the Colombian Andes to help determine the nature of drainage development and landscape evolution. The Eastern Cordillera, characterized by a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2018.02.009
Abstract: Abstract The processes driving uplift and exhumation of the highest Peruvian peaks (the Cordillera Blanca) are not well understood. Uplift and exhumation seem closely linked to the formation and movement on the Cordillera Blanca normal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2018.12.023
Abstract: Abstract A possible Mesozoic-Cenozoic trajectory for the North American craton is outlined from latitude changes of the craton derived from a revised apparent polar wander path, and from westward movement of the craton based on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2020tc006684
Abstract: GPS data suggest that the NW South America corner forms a semi‐rigid block drifting NE‐ward along the regional dextral strike‐slip faults that bound an oceanic terrane accreted in Late Cretaceous times to W Ecuador and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1139/cjes-2016-0115
Abstract: Models of the seismic velocity structure of the crust in the seismically active northern Canadian Cordillera remain poorly constrained, despite their importance in the accurate location and characterization of regional earthquakes. On 29 August 2014,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1190/int-2020-0058.1
Abstract: The eastern foothills in the Colombian Eastern Cordillera have been an important oil-producing region since the discovery of the Cupiagua and Cusiana fields. Three organic-rich units are considered to be the main source rocks. The… read more here.

DOI: 10.7717/peerj.13186
Abstract: Vicariance is the simplest explanation for divergence between sister lineages separated by a potential barrier, and the northern Andes would seem to provide an ideal example of a vicariant driver of divergence. We evaluated the… read more here.
