He enjoys sailing, skiing, aviation, soccer, and poetry. Through the USP I was able to understand the implications of carrying out geological research, and I was able to obtain both field and laboratory skills. It would have been impossible for me to acquire these skills based solely on the theoretical studies performed in the classroom. Four tephra units correspond to in situ glaciolacustrine deposits. The youngest unit appears to have been deposited in a shallow-water fluvioglacial or paleolacustrine shoreline environment.
All units seem to have originated from phreatomagmatic volcanic episodes.
Statistical analysis has revealed two tephra units which have originated from the same volcanic pulse. By means of geochemical correlation it will be possible to confirm Mt. Hudson volcano as the source volcano of all tephra units. The pyroclastic product called tephra, which is comprised of volcanic glass, lithic and crystal fragments, has been deposited in proximal and downwind distal areas of Mt. Hudson volcano. Ancient tephras derived from Mt. Hudson should be found at Perito Moreno, because it lies 170 km to the east and downwind of the volcano. This paper presents the results of a detailed study performed on the Quaternary tephra deposits from Mt. Hudson Volcano proximal to Perito Moreno, Argentina.
