By integrating geophysical, geochemical, and geomorphological techniques with numerical modelling we will investigate preliminary evidence for active mid-crustal intrusion and crustal fomation at two volcanic areas in the central Andes, Uturuncu and Lazufre. In particular, we seek to place the present snapshot of activity, provided by seismology, magnetotellurics, GPS, InSAR, and gravity change, within the context of long-term activity and local and regional tectonics as determined from geomorphology and geochemistry. With the primary goal of constraining how magma accumulates and erupts in areas of active intrusion and volcanism.
