The segmentation of major fault systems in subduction zones controls earthquake
magnitude and location, but the causes for the existence of segment boundaries and the …

This work explores the control of fore‐arc structure on segmentation of megathrust
earthquake ruptures using coastal geomorphic markers. The Arauco‐Nahuelbuta region at …

In this classic segment, many tectonic processes, like flat-subduction, terrane accretion and
steepening of the subduction, among others, provide a robust framework for their …

We present detrital zircon UPb SHRIMP age patterns for the central segment (34–42° S) of
an extensive accretionary complex along coastal Chile together with ages for some relevant …

Abstract We use Global Positioning System (GPS) velocities and kinematic Finite Element
models (FE-models) to infer the state of locking between the converging Nazca and South …

Platinum-group element (PGE) and gold inclusions are usually present in peridotites and
chromitite deposits associated with ophiolites. Here, we present the first detailed study of the …

This study addresses the interplay between strain/stress fields and paleo-fluid migration in
the Southern Andean Volcanic Zone (SVZ). The SVZ coexists with the margin-parallel …

In seismically-active regions, mapping active and potentially-active faults is the first step to
assess seismic hazards and site selection for paleoseismic studies that will estimate …

Fundamental processes of the seismic cycle in subduction zones, including those controlling
the recurrence and size of great earthquakes, are still poorly understood. Here, by studying …

A better understanding of the chemical evolution of fluids in geothermal and hydrothermal
systems requires data-based knowledge regarding the interplay between active tectonics …
