The southern Central Andes forearc preserves extensive low-relief wave-cut platforms and fluvial terraces that record long-term margin uplift, yet the timing and driving mechanisms are still debated. Here we present eleven new in situ ¹⁰Be exposure ages from high fluvial terraces and four ages from a lower terrace, combined with geomorphic analyses across eight adjacent catchments, to reassess the age and tectonic significance of the degradational surfaces (pediplain) present between 29.5 and 32.5°S. Erosion-corrected exposure ages indicate that the high terrace formed during the Early Pleistocene, while a lower terrace records incision at Middle Pleistocene. Longitudinal terrace–channel profiles reveal systematically increasing relief toward the coast that terminates near the surface projection of the 50–60 km slab-depth contour, coincident with the downdip limit of megathrust domain-C earthquakes. This spatial relationship supports a regionally coherent uplift signal produced by the cumulative effect of deep coseismic deformation. In peninsular settings, notably the Altos de Talinay, this long-wavelength signal is overprinted by short-wavelength uplift consistent with localized underplating. Our results demonstrate that the high fluvial terraces and the shore wave-cut platform constitute a single, regionally continuous geomorphic marker recording an Early Pleistocene forearc uplift phase extending from ~16° to 42°S. This orogen-scale emergence implies a subtle but widespread change in subduction dynamics during the last Early Pleistocene, the causes of which are not clearly understood.
