Late Glacial-Holocene tephra from southern Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego (Argentina, Chile): A complete textural and geochemical fingerprinting for distal correlations in the Southern Hemisphere
Explosive volcanoes from the southern Andes are able to disperse ash over wide areas of the Southern Hemisphere, potentially as far as Antarctica. With the aim of improving correlations between sources and tephra in southernmost South America and, possibly, Antarctica, this work presents new field,...
