An integration of diverse strain markers into a palinspastic reconstruction of the northern
Andes provides a first-order quantitative approximation to the response of a complex margin …

After more than 100 years of earthquake research, earthquake forecasting, which relies on
knowledge of past fault rupture patterns, has become the foundation for societal defense …

Cartagena is subsiding at a higher rate compared to that of global climate-driven sea level
rise. We investigate the relative sea level rise (RSLR) and the influence of vertical land …

Abstract The heterogeneous South American geology has coined a wide variety of
neotectonic settings where crustal seismogenic sources do occur. This fact has led to …

SUMMARY Northwestern South America is a plate boundary zone where the Nazca,
Caribbean and South American plates interact to produce a wide area of active continental …

Abstract Both the Caribbean and Nazca plates subduct beneath northwestern South
America. The configuration of the two subducted slabs and the nature of any interaction …

Deltaic depositional systems are characterized by a complex interaction of physical,
chemical, and biological factors. Although fluvial-, wave-and tidal-dominated deltaic …

The Caribbean plate is an enclosed oceanic basin whose formation and evolution are
controversial. In the most commonly accepted model, the Caribbean plate is mainly …

The northwestern corner of South America presents a highly complex geodynamical setting
including the convergence between South America, Nazca, and Caribbean plates; which …

The complex Moho topography beneath the northwestern Andes is the result of multiple
geodynamic processes during the Cenozoic. To contribute to our understanding of the Moho …
