AB - ABSTRACT: We used seismic tomography to investigate the complex structure of the upper mantle below northwestern South America. Images of slab structure not delineated by previous seismicity studies help us to refine existing tectonic models of subducted Caribbean-Pacific lithosphere beneath the study area. Beneath western Venezuela and Colombia we distinguish two slabs: a Maracaibo and a (redefined) Bucaramanga slab. The Maracaibo slab, coinciding with most of the Bucaramanga slab previously defined by W. D. Pennington, dips in a direction of 150 degrees at an angle of 17 degrees to a depth of 275 km and correlates to the subducted Late Cretaceous oceanic plateau of the Caribbean plate. Farther south, a second slab dips at an angle of 50 degrees in a direction of 125 degrees to a depth of at least 500 km and correlates to the subducted oceanic crust of the Nazca plate and the downdip extension of the Panama island arc. We refer to this slab as the redefined Bucaramanga slab, because it is different from the Bucaramanga slab segment defined by Pennington. The area of the South American plate overriding both slabs is characterized by the absence of an active volcanic arc, an anomalously wide topographically uplifted and tectonically active area, and the northward escape of the Maracaibo block along active strike-slip faults. In support of earlier studies, we attribute this to the underthrusting of the Caribbean oceanic plateau (our shallowly dipping Maracaibo slab) along the base of the South American lithosphere and to the recent collision of the Panama island arc rafted in on more steeply dipping crust of the Nazca plate (our redefined Bucaramanga slab).

AB - ABSTRACT: Based on a detailed study of Early Miocene to early Middle Miocene sediments in the Caqueta River area (Amazonas Basin, Colombia), a reconstruction of the palaeoenvironmental and palaeogeographical history is made. Sediment composition, sedimentary sequences and transport directions indicate that the succession was deposited by a low sinuosity fluvial system with an anastomosing character that originated from the Guyana Shield. Basin subsidence, Precambrian and Palaeozoic palaeorelief, and a changing base level controlled deposition in this fluvial system. Sedimentary environments such as channels, abandoned channels, crevasse splays, backswamps and palaeosoils characterized this system where fluvial flooding was common. The Early Miocene to early Middle Miocene sequences have been truncated by a more recent fluvial system, probably of Pliocene to Pleistocene age, representing the precursor of the present Caqueta River. Palynological analysis suggest that the sediments are part of the Retitricolporites and the Psiladiporites-Crototricolpites pollen zones. Fifteen new species are described which belong to the genera: Psilatricolpites, Retitricolpites, Retitricolporites, Bombacacidites, Syncolporites and Psilastephanocolporites. The palynological assemblages indicate that the area was characterized by palm swamps, riparian vegetation and a rather diverse tropical forest. Intervals rich in marine palynomorphs accompanied by high concentrations of mangrove pollen grains (Zonocostites) suggest periods of marine influences and mangrove development. It is thought that the marine intervals are related to the Late Burdigalian transgression.
