Sismo de Capellades 01 diciembre 2016, Cartago, Costa Rica
(REVISTA GEOGRÁFICA DE AMÉRICA CENTRAL, 2018)
En este trabajo se hace una descripción de la fuente sísmica del sismo de Capellades, provincia de Cartago, Costa Rica, del 1 de diciembre de 2016, 00:25:20 hora UTC. Se estudian los parámetros de la fuente, centroide, ...
Renewed Explosive Phreatomagmatic Activity at Poás Volcano, Costa Rica in April 2017
(Frontiers in Earth Science, 2018-10-16)
Phreatic and phreatomagmatic eruptions at volcanoes often present no short termprecursory activity, making them a challenge to forecast. Poás volcano, Costa Rica, exhibits cyclic activity with phreatic and some phreatomagmatic ...
OVSICORI's Southern Costa Rica Geodynamic Control Network: The opening of a Pandora's Box
(IASPEI, 2016-06-20)
Summary of the presentation “OVSICORI's South Costa Rica Geodynamic Control Network: Opening a Pandora's box. Presented at II General Assembly of the Latin America and Caribbean Seismological Commission of IASPEI, Heredia, ...
Far-field triggering of foreshocks near the nucleation zone of the 5 September 2012 (MW 7.6) Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica earthquak
(Elsevier, 2015-12-01)
On 5 September 2012, a moment magnitude (MW) 7.6 earthquake occurred directly beneath the Nicoya Peninsula, an area with dense seismic and geodetic network coverage. The mainshock ruptured a portion of a previously identified ...
A brittle failure model for long-period seismic events recorded at Turrialba Volcano, Costa Rica
(American Geophysical Union, 2015-01-30)
A temporary seismic network, consisting of 23 broadband and six short-period stations, wasinstalled in a dense network at Turrialba Volcano, Costa Rica, between 8 March and 4 May 2011. During thistime 513 long-period (LP) ...
Earthquake and tsunami forecasts: Relation of slow slip events to subsequent earthquake rupture
(National Academy of Sciences, 2014-11-17)
The 5 September 2012 Mw 7.6 earthquake on the Costa Rica subduction plate boundary followed a 62-y interseismic period. Highprecision GPS recorded numerous slow slip events (SSEs) in the decade leading up to the earthquake, ...
Nicoya earthquake rupture anticipated by geodetic measurement of the locked plate interface
(Nature Research, 2013-12-22)
The Nicoya Peninsula in Costa Rica is one of the few places on Earth where the seismically active plate interface of a subduction zone is directly overlaid by land rather than ocean. At this plate interface, large megathrust ...
Análisis de la actividad sísmica en Costa Rica durante el 2010 y resumen de los eventos sísmicos más importantes presentados en Costa Rica de 1983 - 2012
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2014-01)
El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la actividad sísmica registrada por la red sismográfica del OVSICORI-UNA en el año 2010; además de recopilar información de los sismos más importantes sentidos por la población del ...
Parâmetros de fonte de sismos locais por inversão de formas de ondas
(Sociedade Brasileira de Geofísica, 2010-11)
The main purpose of this work is to invert seismic waveforms in order to obtain moment tensor for two medium size earthquakes detected by OVSICORI-UNA Costa Rica permanent seismic network, occurred in 2004, following the ...
Coda wave attenuation in Mara Rosa seismic zone
(Sociedade Brasileira de Geofísica, 2013-08-26)
Small local earthquakes from aftershock sequence in Mara Rosa, Goiás state, Brazil were used to estimate the coda wave attenuation in the frequency band of 1 to 20 Hz. The time-domain coda-decay method of a single ...
