  • Convergent Margin Magmatism in the Central Andes and Its Near Antipodes in Western Indonesia: Spatiotemporal and Geochemical Considerations
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Morgan J. Salisbury for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geology presented on June 3, 2011. Title: Convergent Margin Magmatism in the Central Andes and its Near Antipodes in Western Indonesia: Spatiotemporal and Geochemical Considerations Abstract approved: ________________________________________________________________________ Adam J.R. Kent This dissertation combines volcanological research of three convergent continental margins. Chapters 1 and 5 are general introductions and conclusions, respectively. Chapter 2 examines the spatiotemporal development of the Altiplano-Puna volcanic complex in the Lípez region of southwest Bolivia, a locus of a major Neogene ignimbrite flare- up, yet the least studied portion of the Altiplano-Puna volcanic complex of the Central Andes. New mapping and laser-fusion 40Ar/39Ar dating of sanidine and biotite from 56 locations, coupled with paleomagnetic data, refine the timing and volumes of ignimbrite emplacement in Bolivia and northern Chile to reveal that monotonous intermediate volcanism was prodigious and episodic throughout the complex. 40Ar/39Ar age determinations of 13 ignimbrites from northern Chile previously dated by the K-Ar method improve the overall temporal resolution of Altiplano-Puna volcanic complex development. Together with new and updated volume estimates, the new age determinations demonstrate a distinct onset of Altiplano-Puna volcanic complex ignimbrite volcanism with modest output rates beginning ~11 Ma, an episodic middle phase with the highest eruption rates between 8 and 3 Ma, followed by a general decline in volcanic output. The cyclic nature of individual caldera complexes and the spatiotemporal pattern of the volcanic field as a whole are consistent with both incremental construction of plutons as well as a composite Cordilleran batholith.

  • Timing of Alluvial Fan Development Along the Chajnantor Plateau, Atacama Desert, Northern Chile: Insights from Cosmogenic 36Cl
    Timing of alluvial fan development along the Chajnantor Plateau, Atacama Desert, northern Chile: Insights from cosmogenic 36Cl A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Science in the Department of Geology of the McMicken College of Arts and Sciences by Jason M. Cesta B.S. (Geology), The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey, May 2013 June, 2015 Cincinnati, OH Advisory Committee: Dr. Dylan J. Ward, Ph.D. (Chair) Dr. Craig Dietsch, Ph.D. (Member) Dr. Lewis A. Owen, Ph.D. (Member) Keywords: Alluvial fans, debris flows, cosmogenic nuclides, Atacama Desert, central Andes Timing of alluvial fan development along the Chajnantor Plateau, Atacama Desert, northern Chile: Insights from cosmogenic 36Cl Jason M. Cesta Abstract An extensive alluvial apron of coalescing gravel fans blankets the western flank of the Chajnantor Plateau in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile. Remnant alluvial surfaces, terraces, and intermittent debris flow deposits preserved in this bajada indicate multiple intervals of aggradation, incision and terrace abandonment, and deposition. The high preservation potential and sensitivity to climate shifts of the region provides a unique opportunity to elucidate the sedimentary response to climate variations at an extreme of Earth’s climate. Cosmogenic 36Cl exposure dating, aided by mapping, is used to establish a detailed chronology of the depositional history of the Chajnantor alluvial apron. Alluvial surfaces and gravel deposits yield cosmogenic exposure ages ranging from 20.7 ± 1.4 ka to 419.2 ± 39.6 ka. Debris flow boulders confined to modern and ancient channels yield cosmogenic exposure ages ranging from 9.3 ± 1.1 ka to 202.5 ± 19.6 ka.
