Volcano monitoring and eruption forecasting are based on the observation and joined interpretation of several precursory phenomena. It is thus important to detect new types of precursor and to study their relationship with ...

Evaluation of the seismic response of the Santiago Basin requires a shear wave velocity model with vertical and lateral variations that may explain the site effects reported during the 2010 Maule Earthquake. In order to ...

The degree of connectivity of fracture networks is a key parameter that controls the hydraulic properties of fractured rock formations. The current understanding is that this parameter does not alter the effective elastic ...

Understanding and monitoring the seismic responses of rock masses to massive mining are crucial for safety and economic viability of ever larger and deeper underground operations. Seismic monitoring can be used to detect ...

Sabancaya volcano is the youngest and second most active volcano in Peru. It is part of the Ampato-Sabancaya volcanic complex which sits to the south of the ancient Hualca Hualca volcano and several frequently active faults, ...
