The Nicoya segment of Middle American Trench: an Excellent Target for Drilling and Monitoring the Shallow Portion of the Seismogenic Zone
(2011-06-28)
The Nicoya segment of Middle America Trench has generated large earthquakes in 1883, 1900 and 1950. Since the Nicoya peninsula sits right over the seismogenic zone, it has proved to be a unique site for near field monitoring ...
Constraints on upper mantle anisotropy surrounding the Cocos slab from SK(K)S splitting
(American Geophysical Union, 2010-06-24)
SKS and SKKS splitting observations are used to constrain the pattern of mantle flow
in the Central American subduction zone beneath Costa Rica and Nicaragua. After
removing the effects of shallow wedge anisotropy on ...
