Upper plate deformation and seismic barrier in front of Nazca subduction zone: The Chololo Fault System and active tectonics along the Coastal Cordillera, southern Peru
(Elsevier, 2008)
The South America plate boundary is one of the most active subduction zone. The recent Mw = 8.4 Arequipa 2001 earthquake ruptured the subduction plane toward the south over 400 km and stopped abruptly on the Ilo Peninsula. ...
Structure and tectonics of the central Chilean margin (31 degrees-33 degrees S): implications for subduction erosion and shallow crustal seismicity
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
The pre- and current collision of the Juan Fernandez Ridge with the central Chilean margin at 31 degrees-33 degrees S is characterized by large-scale crustal thinning and long-term subsidence of the submarine forearc caused ...
Neogene and Quaternary tectonics of the Eastern Sierras Pampeanas, Argentina: Active intraplate deformation inboard of flat-slab subduction
(American Geophysical Union, 2013-06-28)
The ranges of the Eastern Sierras Pampeanas are located >600 km east of the Andean Cordillera in central Argentina and have been interpreted to be a response to shortening related to flat-slab subduction of the Nazca ...
The Arequipa (Peru) earthquake of june 23, 2001
(Springer, 2002-04)
The Arequipa earthquake of 23 June 2001 has been the largest earthquake (Mw = 8.3) occurred in the last century in southern Peru with a maximum intensity of VIII (MM scale). Focal mechanisms of main shock and three larger ...
Aftershock seismicity and tectonic setting of the 2015 September 16 Mw 8.3 Illapel earthquake, Central Chile
(Oxford University Press, 2016)
Powerful subduction zone earthquakes rupture thousands of square kilometres along continental margins but at certain locations earthquake rupture terminates. To date, detailed knowledge of the parameters that govern seismic ...
Does permanent extensional deformation in lower forearc slopes indicate shallow plate-boundary rupture?
(Elsevier, 2018)
Seismic rupture of the shallow plate-boundary can result in large tsunamis with tragic socio-economic consequences, as exemplified by the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake. To better understand the processes involved in shallow ...
