In this contribution, we trace the development of knowledge on the Patagonian slab window, from early 20th-century observations and mapping to the transformative impact of plate tectonics and, in particular, the foundational work of Dr. Victor A. Ramos. His contributions paved the way for more sophisticated research in the 21st century, integrating advanced geochemical, geophysical, and numerical techniques that have significantly enhanced our understanding of this geodynamic feature along the southernmost margin of South America. Despite substantial progress, many questions remain. Here, we review the topic, emphasising Dr. Ramos's contributions and examining how past insights continue to shape current perspectives on slab window formation. Finally, we outline key unresolved issues, highlighting opportunities for future research.
期刊介绍:
Papers must have a regional appeal and should present work of more than local significance. Research papers dealing with the regional geology of South American cratons and mobile belts, within the following research fields:
-Economic geology, metallogenesis and hydrocarbon genesis and reservoirs.
-Geophysics, geochemistry, volcanology, igneous and metamorphic petrology.
-Tectonics, neo- and seismotectonics and geodynamic modeling.
-Geomorphology, geological hazards, environmental geology, climate change in America and Antarctica, and soil research.
-Stratigraphy, sedimentology, structure and basin evolution.
-Paleontology, paleoecology, paleoclimatology and Quaternary geology.
New developments in already established regional projects and new initiatives dealing with the geology of the continent will be summarized and presented on a regular basis. Short notes, discussions, book reviews and conference and workshop reports will also be included when relevant.
