Lake-level and salinity reconstruction from diatom analyses in Quillagua Formation (Late Neogene, Central Andean Forearc, Northern Chile)

A sedimentary and micropaleontological study of the Quillagua Formation provides a detailed paleohydrological reconstruction of the lacustrine system which occupied the present-day hyperarid Quillagua-Llamara fore-arc Basin (Northern Chile) from lattermost Miocene to Early Pliocene times.
