Geological and Tectonic Studies in Latin America

The 2016 January 25 earthquake (Mw 6.3) follows in sequence from the1994 May 26 earthquake (Mw 6.0) and the 2004 February 24 earthquake (Mw 6.4) in the Rif Mountains and Alboran Sea. The earlier two seismic events which were destructive took place on inland conjugate faults, and the third event occurred on an offshore…

Spectral analysis of NAMAG magnetic data enabled us to estimate depths to the Curie isotherm along the Pacific-North America plate boundary. The estimated depths for the Gulf of California, and southern Baja California peninsula, correlate quite well with the depths to the Moho available from previous studies based on…

The Bolu Basin in northwestern Turkey, situated in the western part of the North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ), displays the neotectonic features of a pull apart basin. The long axis of the basin extends east-west, parallel to the fault zone and Bolu city, situated in the central part of this basin, was extensively dama…

A detailed study, based on ocean-bottom seismometers (OBSs) recordings from two recording periods (3.5 months in 2011 and 2 months in 2014) and on a high-resolution, 3D velocity model, is presented here, which provides an alternative view of the microseismicity along the submerged section of the North Anatolian fault…

A filled prehistoric water well discovered at the village of San Marcos Necoxtla, Puebla, Mexico, may be the oldest directly dated water-management feature in the Americas. The ∼10 m stratigraphic section exposed at this remarkable site records 18,000+ yr of deposition, erosion, water-table and hydrochemical fluctuati…

In this document, a study of the spectra of large-magnitude seismic records that occurred in Chile between 2012 and 2022 is presented, comparing them with the design spectra of NCh433 and D. S 61. For this, seismic records greater than M w = 6 have been used, with different depths to the hypocenter and with different…
