A Creep Event on the Shallow Interface of the Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica Seismogenic Zone
(American Geophysical Union, 2004)
Summary of the paper "A Creep Event on the Shallow Interface of the Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica Seismogenic Zone"
Crustal structure along the southern Central American volcanic front
(American Geophysical Union, 2008-08-20)
Subduction alters continents several ways, including accretion, magmatic addition, mantle wedge serpentinization, and crustal differentiation. These changes affect seismic velocities, so characterizing upper plate crust ...
Active Thrusting in the Inner Fore arc of Middle America, Costa Rica
(American Geophysical Union, 2004)
Summary of the paper "Active Thrusting in the Inner Fore arc of Middle America, Costa Rica"
Crustal Thickness Along the Central American Volcanic Arc
(American Geophysical Union, 2004)
Resumen de ponencia "Crustal Thickness Along the Central American Volcanic Arc"
The intraplate Porto dos Gaúchos seismic zone in the Amazon craton — Brazil
(Elsevier, 2009-01-15)
The largest earthquake observed in the stable continental interior of the South American plate occurred in Serra do Tombador, Mato Grosso state — Brazil, on January 31, 1955 with a magnitude of 6.2 mb. Since then no other ...
International geosciences field research with undergraduate students: Three models for experiential learning projects investigating active tectonics of the Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica
(Geological Society of America, 2009)
International field experiences offer exceptional opportunities for effective student
learning in the geosciences. Over the 10 yr period between 1998 and 2008, more than 40
undergraduate students from 14 institutions ...
Imaging the Subduction Factory Beneath Central America: The TUCAN Broadband Seismic Experiment
(American Geophysical Union, 2004)
Summary of the paper "Imaging the Subduction Factory Beneath Central America: The TOUCAN
Broadband Seismic Experiment"
Seismogenic zone structure along the Middle America Trench, Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica, from 3D local earthquake tomography
(American Geophysical Union, 2004)
Resumen de la ponencia "Estructura de la zona sismogénica a lo largo de la Fosa Mesoamericana, Nicoya Península, Costa Rica, a partir de tomografía sísmica local 3D"
Coastal Deformation Patterns Along the Nicoya Seismic Gap, Pacific Coast, Costa Rica, Central America
(American Geophysical Union, 2004)
Summary of the paper "Coastal Deformation Patterns Along the Nicoya Seismic Gap, Pacific
Coast, Costa Rica, Central America"
Along-strike variability in the seismogenic zone below Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica
(American Geophysical Union, 2002)
At the subduction zone in northwestern Costa Rica, the seismogenic zone lies directly beneath the Nicoya Peninsula, allowing for near source seismic studies of earthquake activity. We located 650 earthquakes along the ...
