Wave Energy Assessment in the Central-South Coast of Chile
(2017)
This paper presents an assessment of the wave energy resource in nearshore waters along the central coast of Chile (Lat.:32.5° S to 42.5° S). The assessment is built upon the combined use of hindcast and measured data ...
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 ...
Tectonosedimentary evolution of the Coastal Cordillera and Central Depression of south-Central Chile (36°30′-42°S)
(Elsevier Science, 2021-02)
The forearc of south-central Chile (36°30′-42°S) is characterized by the presence of a Coastal Cordillera and a low lying area known as the Central Depression. The origin of these morphostructural units has been largely ...
Water-column cooling and sea surface salinity increase in the upwelling region off central-south Chile driven by a poleward displacement of the South Pacific High
(2017)
Here we present results of direct observations of seawater temperature and salinity over the continental shelf off central-south Chile that shows an unprecedented cooling of the entire water column and an increase in upper ...
