A melt-focusing zone in the lithospheric mantle preserved in the Santa Elena Ophiolite, Costa Rica
(2015-08-01)
The Santa Elena Ophiolite in Costa Rica is composed of a well-preserved fragment of the lithospheric mantle that formed along a paleo-spreading center. Within its exposed architecture, this ophiolite records a deep section ...
Lithospheric structure of Pampean Flat Slab (latitude 30-33°s) and Northern Costa Rica (latitude 9-11°n) Subduction Zones
(2011)
The Pampean flat slab subduction in west-central Argentina (latitude 30-33S) and the steeply dipping Northern Costa Rica subduction zone (latitude 9-11N) show significant along-trench variations in both the subducting and ...

The influence of variations in crustal composition and lithospheric strength on the evolution of deformation processes in the southern Central Andes: insights from geodynamic models
(Springer, 2021-02)
Deformation in the orogen-foreland system of the southern Central Andes between 33° and 36° S varies in style, locus, and amount of shortening. The controls that determine these spatially variable characteristics have ...
An elasto-visco-plastic model using the finite element method for crustal and lithospheric deformation
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009-08)
A novel numerical model based on solid deformation is presented in this paper. This thermo-mechanical model can simulate the tectonic evolution of crust and (lithospheric and asthenospheric) mantle under different conditions. ...
Natural Fractals as Irreversible Disorder: Entropy Approach from Cracks in the Semi Brittle-Ductile Lithosphere and Generalization
(2022)
The seismo-electromagnetic theory describes the growth of fractally distributed cracks within the lithosphere that generate the emission of magnetic anomalies prior to large earthquakes. One of the main physical properties ...
