The Evolution of the Chilean-Argentinean Andes

Professor Andreas Folguera is an independent researcher at the Universidad de Buenos Aires and a Professor in the Department of Geological Sciences. His research has revolved around the mechanisms and causes of the Andean orogenesis. He is the author of numerous books and articles in this field.
