Field mapping and sedimentological study of outcrop sections exposed along the Ica River valley permitted the establishment of a regional allostratigraphic framework for the upper Miocene portion of the Pisco Formation. The stratigraphy of the studied interval is illustrated using a new 1:20,000-sca...
