Northern Chile · Antofagasta Region
Atacama · El Tatio
Extreme gradients make it possible to study microbial communities, adaptation and the limits of life.

Atlas CRG · territory and evidence
Extreme environments, productive systems and communities become a network of questions rather than isolated points on a map.
Research and community activities from Atacama to austral Chile: Aysén and Magallanes. Also explore Rapa Nui, Antarctica and the Southern Ocean.
Northern Chile · Antofagasta Region
Extreme gradients make it possible to study microbial communities, adaptation and the limits of life.

Pacific Ocean · Valparaíso Region
Genomics supports the study and conservation of endemic species through work developed with local authorities and communities.

Southern Chile · Los Lagos Region
The Science and Nature Biopark brings together native forest conservation, genetic research and education with local communities.

Castro and Dalcahue · Los Lagos
Students explore the genetic diversity of native potatoes, connecting science, local agricultural heritage and food sovereignty.

Austral Chile · Aysén and Magallanes
Seawater sampled along the Patagonian fjords reveals how temperature shapes viral communities and their role in marine ecosystems.

Polar ecosystems
Polar organisms and microbiomes reveal biological responses to cold, seasonality and accelerated environmental change.

How to read the atlas
Altitude, temperature, salinity and ecological relationships define the questions that can be asked.
Samples, genomes, observations and publications document each research process.
Projects, teams and communities connect local work with national and international networks.
