This book provides a comprehensive study of Central Andean volcanism, from the lower Paleozoic to the Cenozoic, focusing on processes, eruptive mechanisms, and geodynamic conditions. It analyzes ancient volcanic successions and discusses the challenges of recognizing the original rock type due to deformation, metamorphism, and alteration. The selected representative volcanic records of the Southern Central Andes offer new insights into volcanic processes linked to active continental margins.

This comprehensive book delves into the intricate world of Central Andean volcanism, encompassing its remarkable features from the lower Paleozoic to the Cenozoic eras. It serves as a thorough exploration of the volcanism's processes, eruptive mechanisms, and geodynamic conditions within the framework of the Andean continental margin's evolution. By providing readers with a deep understanding of volcanic geology and the volcaniclastic-related deposits associated with this margin's development, the book aims to enhance their comprehension of the region's volcanic history.
Special emphasis is placed on analyzing ancient volcanic successions and the challenges encountered in recognizing the original rock types due to the effects of deformation, metamorphism, and alteration. The authors employ distinctive case studies to illustrate the application of various analytical tools and interpretation methodologies. The selected representative, well-exposed, and preserved volcanic records of the Southern Central Andes analyzed in this book offer fresh perspectives on understanding the volcanic processes associated with active continental margins, particularly in the context of the Central Andes.
This book holds immense appeal to volcanologists, earth science specialists, and students at both undergraduate and graduate levels, as it provides a comprehensive and insightful examination of the region's volcanic phenomena.
