Resumen:
The Puna-Altiplano plateau (PAP) is considered along with Patagonia an important current and past source of aeolian materials exported from southern South America (SSA) to surrounding areas such as the Pampean re - gion, the Southern Ocean or the Antarctic ice. The PAP is a high elevated basin (3750 4000 m) that extends over 1000 km and it is ~200 km wide. The climatic condition of this region is closely associated to the upper air circulation determining easterly zonal flow aloft supporting increase moisture conditions (
