Construction of the Andes has been governed largely by fluctuating contractional, neutral, and extensional tectonic regimes during differing degrees of mechanical coupling along the …
The largest tectonic relief breaking the Earth's surface (13 km vertically) is at the subduction margin of the Andes, which generates routinely megathrust earthquakes (Mw> 8.5) and …

As the archetype of mountain building in subduction zones, the Central Andes has constituted an excellent example for investigating mountain-building processes for decades …
The recent expansion of dense GPS networks over plate boundaries allows for remarkably precise mapping of interseismic coupling along active faults. The interseismic coupling …

Accurate seismic risk modeling requires knowledge of key structural characteristics of buildings. However, to date, the collection of such data is highly expensive in terms of labor …
Reconfigurations of magmatic arcs through time have been recognized since pioneering works, describing inland and trenchward arc migrations or magmatic shut-off lasting for …
Segmentation can influence the extent of earthquake rupture and event magnitude: large megathrust earthquakes result from total rupture of relatively continuous segments of the …
