Fine-Tuning the Seismic Potential of the Nicoya Gap in NW Costa Rica
(American Geophysical Union, 2007-05-22)
The Nicoya seismic gap is a subduction segment along the Middle American Trench where the Cocos plate subducts under the Caribbean plate. This seismic gap, located under the Nicoya Peninsula in northwestern Costa Rica, has ...
Modeling a tsunami from the Nicoya, Costa Rica, seismic gap and its potential impact in Puntarenas
(Journal of South American Earth Sciences .Vol.31 No.4 372-382, 2011)
Although subduction zones around the world are known to be the source of earthquakes and/or tsunamis, not all segments of these plate boundaries generate destructive earthquakes and catastrophic tsunamis. Costa Rica, in ...
Nicoya earthquake rupture anticipated by geodetic measurement of the locked plate interface
(Nature Research, 2013-12-22)
The Nicoya Peninsula in Costa Rica is one of the few places on Earth where the seismically active plate interface of a subduction zone is directly overlaid by land rather than ocean. At this plate interface, large megathrust ...
