  • Hoyas Hidrográficas De Chile: Segunda Región
    HOYAS HIDROGRÁFICAS DE CHILE: SEGUNDA REGIÓN REALIZADO POR: HANS NIEMEYER F. HOVA DEL RlO LOA La hoya hidrográfica del río Loa~ con una superf! cie tota~'de 33 570 km2 , se desarrolla en el tercio norte de la IIa R~ gión de Chile, entre latitudes extremas 20Q52' y 22Q57' L.S. ylongit~ des 68QOO' y 7oQ02' L.o. El río Loa nace en la falda norte del Vn. Mi­ ño~ en los Ojos del Hiño, casi en los límites entre la la y IIa Regio­ nes de Chile, en 21Q15' L.S. y 70Q L.O~ Su longitud total se acerca a 440 km. A pesar de su extensa hoya, los recursos h!dricos provienen de la cuenca alta que comprende alrededor del 20% de la su~ perficie total. Con curso aproximadamente norte-sur~ el Loa reco­ rre casi 150 km en un profundo cañón de altura variable, desde su nací miento hasta el oasis de Chiu ~hiu, pueblo que se levanta en su margen izquierda. En este trayecto recibe sus dos tributarios más importantes que le caen del este: el río San Pedro o Inacaliri y el río Salado. En Chiu Chiu dobla su curso sensiblemente hacia el oeste para alcanzar en un recorrido de 115 km el punto denominado Chacance. En él se le reúne por la derecha el río San Salvador. En Chacance,el Loa toma franca di= recci6n sur-norte hasta fertilizar el oasis de Quillagua, despu~s de una trayectoria de 80 km. A partir de Quillagua el Loa describe un gran arco y luego desemboca en el Pacífico~ en Caleta Huel~n, despu~8 de trasponer el macizo costero en un tajo profundo~ de más de 500 m de al­ tura.

  • 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.

South America is approximately 4500 mi (7200 km) long and at its greatest width 3000 mi (4800 km). Its area is estimated to be about 7,000,000 mi2 (18,000,000 km2). South America has many unique physical features, such as the Earth's longest north­south mountain range (the Andes), highest waterfall (Angel Falls), highest navigable freshwater lake (Lake Titicaca), and largest expanse of tropical rainforest (Amazonia). The western side of the continent has a deep subduction trench offshore, whereas the eastern continental shelf is more gently sloping and relatively shallow. See also: Continent (/content/continent/158900) Regional characteristics South America has three distinct regions: the relatively young Andes Mountains located parallel to the western coastline, the older Guiana and Brazilian Highlands located near the eastern margins of the continent, and an extensive lowland plains, which occupies the central portion of the continent. The regions have distinct physiographic and biotic features. The Andes represent the highest and longest north­south mountain system on Earth. Altitudes often exceed 20,000 ft (6000 m) and perpetual snow tops many of the peaks, even along the Equator (Fig.

KEY WORDS : Ignimbrites, Non-ignimbritic lavas, South-Central Andes, 87Sr/86Sr. INTRODUCTION Ten Plio-Quaternary calc-alkaline strato-volcanoes and groupsof small volcanoes haveken studied in the South Central Andes (SCA), southern part of the Central Volcanic Zone, between latitudes 22'- 24'30's (Déruelle, 1982; Déruelle et al., 1983; Harmon et al,, 1984). Field evidence shows that these volcanoes erupted contemporaneously with large ignimbritic lavas. Numerous data on these ignimbrites indicate ages younger than 10.7 Ma (De Silva, 1989a and references therein). Non-ignimbritic lavas were probably produced from mantle-derived magmas subsequently modified by crustal contributions as in the MASH mode1 (Hildreth and Moorbath, 1988). The origin of ignimbrites is still controversial but crustal anatexis is generally invoked to explain the large volumes of ignimbrite erupted (De Silva, 1989b, Francis et al., 1989).

The AAVC is part of the Altiplano Puna Volcanic Complex (APVC) which is a large zone of silicic volcanism occupying the 21-24°S segment of the Central Andean Volcanic Zone (ACVZ; [1,2]) an area characterized by continental crust >70 km thick [3]. The APVC is dominated by 1-10 Ma ignimbrite flare up [4] and, although no major ignimbrite-caldera forming eruptions of < 1 Ma are known, relatively young dacite to rhyolite lavas (e.g. Chao) and domes (e.g. La Torta de Tocorpuri dome) erupted in the past 100 ka and the presence of famous active geothermal fields (i.e El Tatio and Sol de la Mañana) seem to indicate that the magmatic system of the APVC is currently active [1].

Using the amount-weighted mean data and the combined standard deviation (related to both the weighted mean calculation and the spectrometric measurement), the equation of the local meteoric line calculated by error-in-variables regression is as follows: Northern Chile EIV-LMWL: δ2H = [(7.93 0.15) δ18O] ± + [12.3 2.1]. The slope is similar to that obtained by ordinary least square regression or other ± types of regression methods, whether weighted or not (e.g., reduced major axis or major axis) by the amount of precipitation. However, the error-in-variables regression is more accurate and suitable than ordinary least square regression (and other types of regression models) where statistical assumptions (i.e., no measurement errors in the x-axis) are violated.

E-Mail: [email protected] 2 Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra e Geologico-Ambientali, Piazza di Porta S.Donato 1, 40126 Bologna, Italy. E-Mail: [email protected]; [email protected]; piermaria- [email protected] Abstract We report new petrographic and geochemical data on volcanic rocks erupted over the last ~9 Ma in El Tatio volcanic region (Western Cordillera ± Central Volcanic Zone). They originated from compound volcanism al- ternating composite volcano activities, lava domes formation and minor low-mild explosive eruptions, whereas ignimbrite-like deposits outcropping in the region originated from external caldera systems (Altiplano Puna Volcanic Complex). Volcanic rocks ± mostly erupted in the last 1 Ma - have composition ranging between calcalkaline (CA)and high-K calcalkaline (HKCA)basaltic andesite to rhyolite, but most of them are andesites and dacites. Petrographic features of studied rocks can be frequently related to strong disequilibrium conditions in the crystallizing system: deeply resorbed and rounded mineral phases, reaction rims, skeletal habits, large ranges of mineral compositions with direct and reverse zoning, oxidations and uralitizations phenomena are observed. Most of these crystal disequilibrium features may be explained by convective self-mixing processes in magma reservoirs cooling from above and characterized by a mafic magma batch at the base as a probable heat source.
