Abstract:The upper catchment of the Claro river is located within the Transitional Southern Volcanic Zone in the Maule Region of Chile (35.5°S), at the foothills of Manantial Pelado volcano, a Pleistocene stratovolcano whose morphology suggests the occurrence of important glacial processes in the area. The observed glacial landforms can be sequenced and associated with episodes of volcanic activity. Different units of volcanic and glacial origin were identified based on field observations, detailed mapping, and digital… Show more
