Quaternary normal and reverse faulting and the state of stress in the central Andes of south Peru

TL;DR: In this paper, structural analysis of faults and from earthquake focal mechanisms allow us to surmise the state of stress in the Andes of southern Peru, showing that N-S trending extension in the High Andes and Pacific Lowlands, Quaternary and Recent faults are normal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crustal versus asthenospheric origin of relief of the Atlas Mountains of Morocco

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the role of crustal tectonic shortening and asthenospheric processes on the topography of the High Atlas and surrounding areas (Morocco).

Tectonics and uplift in Central Andes (Peru, Bolivia and Northern Chile) from Eocene to present

TL;DR: The analysis of sedimenta y and volcank records, exposed in southern Peru, Bolivia, and norfhem Chile, allow us to establish the chronological evolution of Central Andes from Upper Eocene to Present, based on fieid observations and a re-evaluation of available geological data as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Mesozoic-Cenozoic tectonic evolution of the Greater Caucasus

TL;DR: A review of existing and newly acquired data has allowed a reconstruction of the Greater Caucasus (GC) history through the Mesozoic and Cenozoic eras as mentioned in this paper, which is related to the final collision of Arabia with Eurasia and led to the development of the present-day southvergent GC fold-and-thrust belt.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quaternary state of stress in the Northern Andes and the restraining bend model for the Ecuadorian Andes

TL;DR: Inversion of shallow focal mechanisms in the Northern Andes, together with a neotectonic analysis of the Ecuadorian Andes has been shown to be homogeneous in most of the Northern andes (E-W-trending σ1) as mentioned in this paper.
