Modeling trench sediment-controlled flow in subduction channels: Implications for the topographic evolution of the Central Andean Fore Arc
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2018-10)
The high elevation of the onshore fore-arc platform in northern Chile cannot be accounted for by previously proposed tectonic mechanisms such as coastal underplating and coseismic deformation, whose topographic effects are ...
Relationship between subduction erosion and the up-dip limit of the 2014 Mw 8.1 Iquique earthquake
(American Geophysical Union, USA, 2021)
The aftershock distribution of the 2014 Mw 8.1 Iquique earthquake offshore northern Chile, identified from a long-term deployment of ocean bottom seismometers installed eight months after the mainshock, in conjunction with ...
Tectono-metamorphic evolution of subduction channel serpentinites from South-Central Chile
(Elsevier, 2019)
This work provides the first comprehensive petrological and multi-scale structural investigation of a suite of ultramafic bodies and enclosing metasediments from the Late Paleozoic accretionary prism of South-Central Chile. ...
Thick, strong sediment subduction along south-central Chile anditsrole ingreat earthquakes
(Elsevier, 2020)
The south-central Chile margin experienced the largest and sixth largest earthquakes ever recorded - the 1960 Mw 9.5 Valdivia and 2010 Mw 8.8 Maule megathrust earthquakes, respectively. In early 2017, we conducted a seismic ...
An Alpine-style Ordovician collision complex in the Sierra de Pie de Palo, Argentina: Record of subduction of Cuyania beneath the Famatina arc
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011-03)
The Caucete Group and structurally overlying Pie de Palo Complex in western Argentina are characterised by two generations of west-verging folds and thrust-related shear zones, which formed under amphibolite facies conditions. ...
Titanian clinohumite and chondrodite in antigorite serpentinites from Central Chile: evidence for deep and cold subduction
(E Schweizerbartsche Verlagsbuchhandlung, 2017)
Humite minerals, including Ti-rich, hydroxyl-dominant chondrodite and clinohumite, occur in Paleozoic antigorite serpentinite in the La Cabana area, in the Chilean Coastal Cordillera (similar to 38 degrees 30'S- 73 degrees ...
