Forearc density structure of the overriding plate in the northern area of the giant 1960 Valdivia earthquake
(Copernicus, 2022)
The objective of this work is to analyse the density structure of the continental forearc in the northern segment of the 1960 Mw 9.6 Valdivia earthquake. Regional 2D and local 3D density models have been obtained from ...
A comprehensive analysis of the Illapel 2015 Mw 8.3 Earthquake from GPS and InSAR data
(Elsevier, 2017-07)
The September 16, 2015 Mw8.3 Illapel Earthquake occurred on a locked segment of the South American subduction in Chile. This segment ruptured during comparable size earthquakes in the past, in 1880 and 1943, suggesting a ...
Post-seismic response of the outer accretionary prism after the 2010 Maule earthquake, Chile
(The Geological Society of America, 2020)
To investigate the dynamic response of the outer accretionary prism up-dip from the patch of greatest slip during the 2010 M-w 8.8 Maule earthquake (Chile), 10 ocean-bottom seismometers (OBSs) were deployed from May 2012 ...
Toward understanding tectonic control on the Mw 8.8 2010 Maule Chile earthquake
(Elsevier, 2012)
The Maule earthquake of 27th February 2010 (Mw=8.8) affected ~500 km of the Nazca-South America plate
boundary in south-central Chile producing spectacular crustal deformation. Here, we present a detailed estimate
of ...
"Bristle-State" Friction: Modeling Slip Initiation and Transient Frictional Evolution From High-Velocity Earthquake Rupture Experiments
(Frontiers Media, 2020)
Fracture mechanics theory and seismological observations suggest that slip-rate is constantly changing during earthquake rupture, including dramatic acceleration from static conditions to high velocity sliding followed by ...
Numerical simulation of tsunami runup in northern Chile based on non-uniform k22 slip distributions
(Springer, 2015)
A large seismic gap lies along northern Chile and could potentially trigger a M (w) similar to 8.8-9.0 megathrust earthquake as pointed out in several studies. The April 1, 2014, Pisagua earthquake broke the middle segment ...
The Chiloé Mw 7.6 earthquake of 2016 december 25 in southern Chile and its relation to the Mw 9.5 1960 valdivia earthquake
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
On 2016 December 25, an Mw 7.6 earthquake broke a portion of the Southern Chilean
subduction zone south of Chiloe Island, located in the central part of the ´ Mw 9.5 1960 Valdivia
earthquake. This region is characterized ...
