Microseismicity appears to outline highly coupled regions on the Central Chile megathrust
We compiled a novel microseismicity catalog for the Central Chile megathrust (29°–35° S),
comprising 8,750 earthquakes between April 2014 and December 2018. These events …

Relation between oceanic plate structure, patterns of interplate locking and microseismicity in the 1922 Atacama seismic gap
We deployed a dense geodetic and seismological network in the Atacama seismic gap in
Chile. We derive a microseismicity catalog of> 30,000 events, time series from 70 GNSS …

Afterslip of the Mw 8.3 2015 Illapel Earthquake Imaged Through a Time‐Dependent Inversion of Continuous and Survey GNSS Data
We use continuous and survey GNSS data to image the spatial and temporal evolution of
afterslip during the 2 months following the Mw 8.3 2015 Illapel earthquake. Our approach …

Along‐Dip Segmentation of the Slip Behavior and Rheology of the Copiapó Ridge Subducted in North‐Central Chile
We studied the along‐dip influence of the Copiapó ridge subduction in the Atacama region,
North‐Central Chile by building a new seismicity catalog, including similar events and non …

Largest aftershock nucleation driven by afterslip during the 2014 Iquique sequence
Various earthquake models predict that aseismic slip modulates the seismic rupture process
but actual observations of such seismic‐aseismic interaction are scarce. We analyze seismic …

Seismic and aseismic slip during the 2006 Copiapó swarm in North-Central Chile
Earthquake swarms commonly occur along the Chilean subduction zone, witnessing fast
seismic and slow aseismic slip behavior at the plate interface. However, the largest seismic …

Return of the Atacama deep Slow Slip Event: The 5-year recurrence confirmed by continuous GPS
Four years ago, using survey GPS measurements, the first deep slow slip event (SSE) was
detected in Chile (near Copiapó, Atacama region), unrelated to any major earthquake. It was …
