Seismicity and plate tectonics of the Eastern Caribbean
(2010-06-21)
The distribution of earthquakes in the Caribbean region closely follows the Greater and Lesser Antillean island chain and the coast of Venezuela. This zone is interpreted as one of differential movement between two separate ...
Transpressional tectonics and strain partitioning during oblique collision between three plates in the Precambrian of southeast Brazil
(1998-12-01)
This paper is part of the special publication Continental transpressional and transtensional tectonics (eds R.E. Holdsworth, R.A. Strachan and J.F. Dewey). Two orogenic belts have been recognized in south- east Brazil, ...
Active tectonics of Peru: heterogeneous interseismic coupling along the Nazca megathrust, rigid motion of the Peruvian Sliver, and Subandean shortening accommodation
(American Geophysical Union, 2016-10)
Over 100 GPS sites measured in 2008–2013 in Peru provide new insights into the present‐day crustal deformation of the 2200 km long Peruvian margin. This margin is squeezed between the eastward subduction of the oceanic ...
