Nuevas evidencias de la actividad sísmica del terreno Cuyania en la región de subducción de placa horizontal de ArgentinaNew evidence for the seismic activity of the Cuyania terrane in the flat slab subduction region of Argentina
(Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México. Centro de Geociencias, 2010-06)
El terreno Cuyania situado en la zona andina de trasarco entre 29°S y 34°S se compone de un sistema de corrimientos y retrocorrimientos del cinturón plegado de Precordillera y más hacia el este por bloques de basamento ...
Unexpected coseismic surface uplift at Tirúa-Mocha Island area of south Chile before and during the Mw 8.8 Maule 2010 earthquake: a possible upper plate splay faultAlzamiento cosísmico superficial inesperado en el área de Tirúa-isla Mocha del sur de Chile antes y durante el terremoto de Maule Mw=8,8 de 2010: una probable falla subsidiaria en la placa superior
(Servicio Nacional de Geología y Minería, 2020-04)
The Tirúa-Mocha Island area (38.2°-38.4° S) in southern Chile has been affected by two megaearthquakes in only 50 years: the 1960 Mw=9.5 Valdivia earthquake and 2010 Mw=8.8 Maule earthquake. We studied in the field the ...
Lithospheric structure of the Pampean flat slab region from double-difference tomography
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-11)
We obtain earthquake locations and a detailed three-dimensional velocity model of the flat slab subduction zone in west-central Argentina (latitudes: 32-30°S and longitudes: 70-66°W) using a regional-scale double-difference ...
Seismicity near the slip maximum of the 1960 Mw 9.5 Valdivia earthquake (Chile): Plate interface lock and reactivation of the subducted Valdivia Fracture Zone
(American Geophysical Union, 2012-06)
Understanding the processes behind subduction-related hazards is an important responsibility and major challenge for the Earth sciences. Few areas demonstrate this as clearly as south-central Chile, where some of the largest ...
