Lacustrine turbidites produced by surficial slope sediment remobilization: A mechanism for continuous and sensitive turbidite paleoseismic records
(2017)
Turbidite records along ocean margins and in lake basins are increasingly used as paleoseismic proxies. However, the slope remobilization processes that formed the earthquake-related turbidity currents are poorly understood ...
Paleoseismic evidence of the 1715 C.E earthquake on the Purgatorio Fault in Southern Peru: implications for seismic hazard in subduction zones
(ElsevierNL, 2022-07)
Active faults in the forearc of southern Peru pose a poorly understood hazard to the region. The Purgatorio Fault is a 60 km-long fault that extends between Moquegua and Tacna that has hosted several scarp-forming earthquakes ...
Paleoseismic Evidence of an Mw 7 Pre-Hispanic Earthquake in the Peruvian Forearc
(American Geophysical UnionUS, 2021-06)
We present the results of a paleoseismic survey of the Incapuquio Fault System, a prominent transpressional fault system cutting the forearc of South Perú. High-resolution Digital Elevation Models, optical satellite imagery, ...
Seismites and paleotsunamis deposits, assessing for paleoseismicity in Peru
(International Union For Quaternary ResearchMX, 2012)
[ENG] Human occupation records in Perú provide historical record of large earthquakes prior to the 20th century. In this study, we extend our knowledge of major events by evaluating the stratigraphy and chronology of ...
