- Andean flat-slab subduction through time (221 citations)
- Tectonic evolution of the Andes of Neuquén: constraints derived from the magmatic arc and foreland deformation (164 citations)
- Early uplift and orogenic deformation in the Neuquén Basin: Constraints on the Andean uplift from U–Pb and Hf isotopic data of detrital zircons (144 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Paleontology, Subduction, Tectonics, Geomorphology and Foreland basin.
His Paleontology and Cretaceous, Fold and thrust belt, Late Miocene, Neogene and Structural basin investigations all form part of his Paleontology research activities.
In Cretaceous, Andrés Folguera works on issues like Gondwana, which are connected to Massif.
Andesite is closely connected to Magmatism in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Subduction.
His Geomorphology research incorporates elements of Volcano and Quaternary.
His work in Foreland basin covers topics such as Sedimentary rock which are related to areas like Basement.

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Subduction, Tectonics, Cretaceous and Magmatism.
His study on Paleontology is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Transition zone.
His Subduction research incorporates themes from Intraplate earthquake, Transform fault and Magnetic anomaly.
His Tectonics research includes elements of Fold and Mantle.
Andrés Folguera has researched Cretaceous in several fields, including Foreland basin, Volcanic arc, Provenance and Sedimentology.
In his study, Outcrop, Lava dome, Lava, Silicic and Massif is inextricably linked to Andesite, which falls within the broad field of Magmatism.
Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Southward-Directed Subduction of the Farallon–Aluk Spreading Ridge and Its Impact on Subduction Mechanics and Andean Arc Magmatism: Insights From Geochemical and Seismic Tomographic Data (6 citations)
- Northward propagation of Andean genesis: Insights from Early Cretaceous synorogenic deposits in the Aysén-Río Mayo basin (5 citations)
- Tectonics Associated with the Late Oligocene to Early Miocene Units of the High Andes (Cura-Mallín Formation). A Review of the Geochronological, Thermochronological, and Geochemical Data (3 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Plate tectonics
- Sedimentary rock
- Tectonics
His primary scientific interests are in Paleontology, Tectonics, Magmatism, Subduction and Cretaceous.
The concepts of his Tectonics study are interwoven with issues in Structural basin, Period, Mantle and Crust.
His Structural basin research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Quaternary, Petrology and Compression.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Andesite, Geodynamics, Plate tectonics and Volcanic belt in addition to Magmatism.
His Subduction study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Volcanic rock.
His Cretaceous research integrates issues from Paleozoic, Intraplate earthquake, Mesozoic, Supercontinent and Gondwana.
