SZ4Grads Andes Sur

SZ4Grads has a sister group, AndesSur, which focuses on supporting early-career researchers in Chile and Argentina. Together, we aim to foster collaboration, share resources, and build a strong, inclusive community for scientists studying subduction zones and related geohazards across the Americas.

ABOUT US

Subduction Zones for Grad Students and Graduates (SZ4Grads) Andes Sur is a network of early career geoscientists from Chile and Argentina investigating subduction zones. We are part of a larger community that shares a common interest in understanding the origin, history, and evolution of subduction zones, areas where plate tectonics are destroyed, mountains are formed, and giant earthquakes occur. As Latin American geoscientists, we are particularly interested in how the Andes were formed, behaved, and interacted with their associated systems, such as volcanoes. As well, a whole body of data and knowledge production that are the basis for understanding geological hazards and the interactions between nature and society, key components in risk management and mitigation. Overall, SZ4Grads Andes Sur is a coordinated platform for connecting, exchanging, and building knowledge in an equality, human transparency, and mutual collaboration environment.

SOBRE NOSOTROS

Subductions Zones for Grad Students and Graduates (SZ4Grads) Andes Sur es una red de jóvenes geocientistas de Chile y Argentina investigando zonas de subducción. Somos parte de una comunidad mayor cuyo interés es la búsqueda de los orígenes, historia y evolución de las zonas de subducción, áreas de la Tierra donde se destruyen las placas tectónicas, se forman montañas y ocurren sismos de gran magnitud. Como geocientistas latinoamericanos, estamos particularmente interesados en comprender cómo se construyó la Cordillera de los Andes y cómo se comportan e interactúan los sistemas asociados a estas (volcanes, etc). Así como la generación de grandes cantidades de datos y conocimiento vinculado a los estudios de peligros geológicos y las interacciones ambiente-sociedad, componentes claves de la gestión y mitigación de riesgos. En términos generales, SZ4Grads Andes Sur es una plataforma coordinada para conectar, intercambiar y construir conocimiento de alto nivel académico en un ambiente de igualdad, respeto, transparencia humana y colaboración mutua.
