Flat-slab conveyor effect induces precursory crustal contraction in the Central Andes

Abstract: The southern Central Andes (29°S-39°S) is a key area to better understand the mechanisms of non-collisional mountain building associated with changes in oceanic plate dip geometry and the interaction between the oceanic and continental plates. The orogen experienced an increase of shortening during the last 35 Ma which is coeval with the southward migration of a flat subduction segment and the passage of a bathymetric anomaly known as the Juan Fernandez Ridge. Based on data-driven geodynamic numerical modellin… Show more
